home brew in our tt

Although I am still a year (and a little ) away from hitting the road. My plan is to purchase a TT with an outside kitchen and installing the tap outside with the kegerator just inside and use corney kegs...just can't decide on one or two taps?

OH my all means, let's keep this thread going!!!!!!!!!

fellow homebrewer here. I keep kicking around the idea of installing a tap on one of the compartment doors, using the short 2.5gal kegs and icing down the keg in the compartment.

thanks for info i'll set it up this week and let y'all know brew mostly stouts and porters no ipa's yet

I have a kegerator in the back of my Toyhauler. I keep 2 cornices kegs in there. The beer travels well. But as Michers said above, turn your CO2 off when you are in motion. Other than that you should have no problems other than some tunnels ban All types of compressed gases. Most of them simply require all gas bottles turned off. It is great to sit back and draw a tall cold after a day on the road and getting camp set up.

I just take my home brew in bottles. Have you thought about growlers?

I'm a homebrewer myself. Disconnect or shut off your CO2 supply to the keg. The shaking from road travel would likely over-carb your beer. Beyond that some of the sediment at the bottom of the keg might get shaken back into the beer, but that's not a problem.

Let me know how that works, I've thought about doing the same.

Lots of beer types don't travel well, which is partly why IPA was invented. As the story goes, those traveling from England to India needed to increase the alcohol content and the bittering hops for the beer to survive the voyage.

In any case it takes almost 24 hours for beer to settle after being moved as the shakeup foams up the beer (CO2 trying to escape). Whenever I buy a keg I always let it set in the tapper for a full day before access.

On the other hand, bottled beer seems to do all right in my on-board cooler since its on ice and I sandwich glass bottles in between plastic water bottles and haven't lost one yet. Yet.

Just make sure you have your home brew Federal Permit with you so you don't get accused of bootlegging.





Sometimes my mind wanders. Other times it goes away completely.

Lose 5 gallons of beer. That would be considered alcohol abuse. Although I have never tried it, I don't think it should be a problem. Can you let me know where you are camping? I always like a good brew especially an IPA. :B
