filter bag

This filter bag is around 5" in diameter and 18" long. I do not think I will have a problem with clogging.

You are true-blue original. Do you think the Beer Tools.com crew would be willing to set up a venue someplace in the middle, so we could all get together and share some of the flavors we produced? Also to put a face with names. I know I would like that.

That goes to show some battles should not be considered. I would like to here what his wife said after the ordeal....:wink: I hope you will not have a lot of tension between each other.

dry ice

Sounds interesting! It sounds like it could work maybe. But, as for sealing the keg quickly I do not think it has the output required. I say kegging because if you would try bottling you would have absolutely no control over the carbonation.
