Re: O-RINGS

The o-rings I need are for the bulkhead fittings on my kettles. I used a punch tool to cut the holes, and it proved to be just a hair too large to form a tight seal using the o-rings I got with the kit. I wanted something with a bit larger cross section to try.

O-RINGS

Does anyone know of somewhere local that might have a good selection of the reddish orange silicone o-rings? I need to try a couple different sizes and don't want to buy several packs fo the ones I won't need.

Thanx!

ALCATRAZ BREWING CLOSED

September 22 was their last day of operations.

Heard rumors that they lost the lease, and 'Saddle Ranch' offered more? We were just talking to Dave at Fest of Ales!

The beers have been mediocre, but wow.
