Congratulations Dustin!

Crap. That was me. I will retrieve it in the near future.

Pepperoni for me!

Do you have to bake it every time, or just before the first time you use it?

For as inexpensive as CO2 is, that sounds like a lot of trouble and it makes me think you aren't flushing bottles, either. I tried my new bottle filler tonight to take a beer to a buddy's house. It worked great, but raised a question. I don't see the need for flushing bottles with CO2. If you fill ...

I had a few rocky moments when first kegging a few years ago. I think I have done all the wrong things. And plastic tubing is cheap if you get beer in the gas line. In the end, I have 2 procedures.

Eric - can you explain the strainer aparatus you use?

Damn. wish I knew that last year. We ordered a bunch of custom stamps from them last year for the wedding. They do great work!

Sounds like a plan! I hope Addison has a bottling wand and appropriate sizes bung in stock!
