Review: MoreBeer’s Soulless Hop, Zombie Dust Clone! + Limited Time DEAL

This review is by Homebrew Finds Contributor Brad Probert.  Brad is an engineer, expert homebrewer and experienced reviewer.  Grab a link to Brad’s website at the end of this review.

Soulless Hop has ‘Pale Ale’ in its name, but seems more like an IPA to me. The recipe is inspired by Three Floyds Zombie Dust, which tops best beer lists frequently. It’s brewed with 100% Citra hops, and uses a lot of them (5 oz in the boil and 3 oz dry hop). I’ve been lucky enough to have had it a couple times before and loved it, which drew me to try this recipe kit.


Limited Time Deal:

  • MoreBeer’s Kit of the Week offers a 20% discount on a select recipe for a limited time.  Choose from all grain or extract versions while supplies last.
  • Shipping is also free to many US addresses with a qualifying $59 order
  • Custom Tap Handle: All of MoreBeer’s original recipe kits come with a full color insert that works with this custom tap handle
  • Easy Filler Item….  If you’re looking for a filler item to help you qualify for free shipping, consider grabbing some PBW

More Info
Highlighted Features
  • RATCHET ONLY NO ROPE - Multi-Use Replacement: Need a Rope Ratchet replacement? Our heavy-duty 1/4" Rope Ratchet is the answer to all your tie-down needs, whether for rope lights, kayak hoists, grow light hangers, or adjustable light hangers. Fits 1/4" rope (Rope not included). This offer includes the Rope Ratchet only, with no rope or extra hook included. Only 1 ratchet is included.
  • BUILT TOUGH with 150lb Weight Capacity: The creative design and rugged construction lets you secure a wide variety of loads quickly and efficiently. Made super tough to depend on as an RV awning hook, rope tarp, ceiling pulley system, or heavy-duty rope hanger. The impressive 150lb weight capacity ensures reliable performance for securing heavy loads.
  • GET IT DONE with Efficient Ratcheting Mechanism: With Rope Ratchet, simply attach the two hooks and pull the loose end of the rope for secure tightness. The high-quality ratcheting mechanism makes tightening and securing your load effortless. Replace your tie-down hook with our Rope Ratchet and never worry about stretching, snapping back, or loosening.
  • SAFE & SECURE - Rope Locks: Your load stays secure because the rope locks in place with every pull and stays locked until released by pushing the convenient Thumb Release Lever. Plus, the integrated rachet pulley system and durable hooks allow for quick and secure attachments to various anchor points, enhancing safety and stability.

From HBF: Make sure the components you use are compatible and rated for your intended application.  Contact manufacturer with questions about suitability or a specific application.  Always read and follow manufacturer directions.

 

  • Notes from HBF: Given the right setup, this could be helpful as a pulley for a BIAB setup.  Of course, you’ll want a capable place to hang it and want to make sure to stay under the rated capacity. Also, this does not include a rope, it’s the pulley only.

Rebuilding & Reconditioning Homebrew Kegs + Last Call to Save on Keg Parts

rebuild homebrew kegs

This post will walk you through rebuilding your homebrew keg, step by step.  From de-labeling to cleaning to replacing warn out parts.


Limited Time Deal on Keg Parts

Valuebrew offers a lineup of food grade keg replacement o-rings in bulk quantities.  Most offerings are silicone or EPDM with one Buna-N option.  Everything they carry is food grade, more info below.  They have some unique offerings like bulk pin lock size post o-rings, replacement universal poppet o-rings, bulk internal QD o-rings and color coded Blue and Green post o-rings

Some of these offerings are detailed in our Keg Rebuild How-To

Save  an EXTRA 15% when you spend $30 or more on select items at Valuebrew.  This stacks on top of existing discounts. Includes…

Use coupon code BF2023 with an order of $30 or more to get the deal



What Does Reconditioned/Rebuilt Mean?

The short answer is probably… nothing.  I think reconditioned/rebuilt/refurbished are basically synonyms and there is no standard definition for any of these terms.

Here are the different definitions I’ve seen from different retailers via their offerings:

  • The keg is untouched, but is in okay shape and holds pressure.  In this case, reconditioned means… the keg works.
  • The keg has had been tested and had faulty parts replaced.  In this case, reconditioned means, we did the minimum to get the keg working.
  • All o-rings have been replaced and any faulty parts have been replaced.  In this case, reconditioned means… reconditioned.
  • All o-rings have been replaced and any faulty parts have been replaced and the keg has been cleaned.  In this case reconditioned means reconditioned and cleaned.

Examples of Keg Conditions from MoreBeer

The takeaway is that it’s important to read descriptions when it comes to reconditioned/rebuilt/refurbished kegs.  The post walks through a complete rebuild process.

NukaTap Counter Pressure Bottle Filler

Nukatap Counter Pressure Bottle Filler

More Info

From the product description, check product page for current description, price and availability:

Do you having a kegging system with beer faucet, and want to bottle kegged beer? The Nukatap Counter Pressure Bottle Filler is an easy way to fill bottles directly from your beer faucet while preserving carbonation in the bottle. The O ring sealed beer inlet nipple press fits into any beer faucet with 10.0 mm inner diameter spout/nozzle including Nukatap, Intertap, Perlick Forward Seal, and Ventmatic faucets.

For the gas inlet side, a male ball lock fitting is provided, so you can use any ball lock gas connector to attach the C02 purging gas. This gas should be at the same pressure as your kegerator dispensing gas, and should be connected to your kegerator C02 regulator. Not Included: you will need a spare gas line from your regulator kegging system with a female ball lock on it to connect your purging C02 gas.

The integrated counter pressure relief valve gives you control of the counter pressure and thus the filling speed. How fast the bottle can be filled without too much foaming depends on CO2 level, beer temperature and bottle temperature. Keep everything cold for the best results.

Fits all 16 ounce and 32 ounce ‘Grolsch’ style swing top bottles.


 

This connects directly to your compatible forward sealing faucet (Intertap, Nukatap and more) and allows you to easily counter fill bottles directly from the tap.

This is DuoTight compatible, although you don’t need to use DuoTights throughout your entire tap system to use it.

Why Use a Longer Shank?  Generally speaking, a Longer Shank = Less Foam”.  A longer shank means… a colder faucet.  More mass inside your kegerator or keezer keeps your faucet colder and reduces foam.  More Info: Step by Step: Balancing Your Kegerator Draft System

DIGITAL Refractometer… $39.99, HALF OFF, best price + free prime ship

Digital Brix Refractometer, ACEGMET Automatic Temperature Compensation Brix Refractometer Range 0-53%, ±2 PSU Accuracy, 1 PSU Resolution Brix Meter

Digital Refractometer

More Info
Highlighted Features
  • The measurement of refractive index is simple and quick and provides the user an accepted method for sugar content analysis. Samples are measured after a simple calibration with steam distilled water. Within seconds the instrument measures the refractive index of the brix. This digital refractometer eliminates the uncertainty associated with mechanical refractometer and is easily portable for measurements in the field
  • It is easy to use with simple three button operation and fast with a response time under 3 seconds. Easy to clean, stainless steel sample well with unit rated to IP65 as "dust tight" and protected against water jets. Ideal for winemakers, brewers, fruit and vegetable growers, maple syrup producers, and food producers.
  • This handheld refractometer is small, light and simple to use as optical refractometer, but with the precision of a digital readout. They read samples as small as 0.3 ml. Sample temperature is initially displayed on the TFT screen followed by the measurement results. They have easy-to-read LCD that eliminates the possibility of interpretation errors.
  • SM20 digital brix refractometer is commonly used in the food and beverage, agriculture and wine industries. Fruit farmers will use a refractometer to check the sugar content of fruit on the vine to determine the best time for harvesting. SM20 brix refractometer is an ideal measurement instrument for the food and beverage industry.
  • The meter provides automatic calibration, automatic temperature compensation (ATC) and automatic shutoff (after 3 minutes). A sturdy water resistant case protects the electronics from wet environments and makes for easy clean ups. It features one button calibration to distilled water and indicate when the battery should be replaced

 

For me, getting a refractometer was one of those upgrades that made a lot of difference.  With a refractometer you need a sample size of two drops.  I figured that this would pay for itself in beer savings alone.  I also had just broken my hydrometer and came to the realization that hydrometers are made of breakable glass that can break! 🙂

With the aid of calculators – get a Free Non-Expiring Brewfather Trial Account –  Refractometers can be used to measure gravity throughout the brewing process.
