This accessory allows you to mount your Tapcooler to the side of any magnetic surface (like your kegerator or keezer) to enable handsfree filling, bottle after bottle. No more having to hold onto the Tapcooler while filling. With this, you can setup the bottle, begin filling, and then use your free hands to get ready for the next bottle.

    Announcing: Glacial Advance Cold IPA Kits at Great Fermentations

    From Great Fermentations:

    Cold IPA is here! Glacial Advance is our take on the up and coming west coast style, which delivers a hoppy beer with a light and clear body. Hoppy with a medium to high perceived bitterness, this style is not overpowering, and gets a light body from its use of adjuncts (flaked maize, in this case) and a lower mash temperature, as well as from a lager strain fermented at the top of its temperature range. In our experimental batches, we have found that this beer also comes out wonderfully if using Lutra as the yeast, and can be fermented anywhere in its wide temperature range. We use Idaho 7 as the bittering addition, with Citra Cryo and Strata at whirlpool, along with Citra and Simcoe for a dry hop. See what all the buzz is about with this delicious beer that will leave you wanting more with each sip!

    Announcing: Thiolized Beer Kit Series – featuring Phantasm & Omega Thiolized Yeasts! – Helio Gazer, Star Party & Lunar Crush

    Thiols are compounds found abundantly in malt and hops, that give off huge tropical notes of grapefruit, passion fruit, and guava. The problem is that these thiols are locked away; inaccessible to homebrewers using traditional ingredients. Now, thanks to science and the geniuses at Omega Yeast, those huge tropical notes can now burst forward in your homebrew creations. Using a mix of malt, certain hop varieties, Phantasm Thiol Powder, and Thiolized® yeast from Omega, you can amp up the juiciness of just about any beer you can think of!

    Phantasm and Tholized® yeasts are relatively new, so we worked with the team at Omega and Phantasm to come up with three beer kits, specifically formulated to get the most out of these thiol boosting ingredients. Try them out today, and get that juicy homebrew you’ve been looking for!
