Apparently homebrewtalk doesn't like any "hotlinking". Pony up some brew pr0n, man.

that's pretty douchey.
I feel annoyed that I made a donation to hbt if I cannot share my photos elsewhere. lame.


Anyway... I put it on a web server of my own (that for some reason won't work with www. in front). I don't know why the bulletin board code won't show it. The link should work in OP now.

If I get more time, maybe I'll put all the pictures up on a web server and link them in, but after all the time to get them into HBT, I might be done for a while.

I'm not finished with it yet, I still need a few parts, and to build a few minor things and mount pumps, etc. Should wet test this weekend. Am planning a brew for Jan. 1 to break it in.

Wow, that took some polishing to get those keggles so shiny. Then again, them being so dinged doesn't exactly make the reflections look so nice...

I gave up polishing my keggles. I get one boilover and it's back to polishing. As well as the bottom of my keggle gets a bit of soot from my NG every session. Then again, these are my problems!

Keep it clean!

that's with the gator grit "fine" pads, which are pretty rough still. Two pads per keg. I found laying it on it's side on the floor, putting one knee on the ground and tossing hte other leg over the keg was a comfortable position to work the grinder with.

If I could find polishing compound for the white polishing pad, I would go at them again, but for the life of me I cannot find it and the people at Lowe's looked at me like I was speaking a different language, even when I showed them the directions on the pad package.
