Announcing: BrewZilla Gen 4!

Gen 4 BrewZilla!

More Info

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

The BrewZilla previously called Robobrew all grain brewing systems are the ultimate value all in one electric brewing devices. They utilize a single vessel so they are ideal for homebrewers with limited space or looking to downsize from a larger 3 vessel system. Available in different sizes & configurations you can select the BrewZilla that best fits your brewing application. Also be sure to check out the DigiBoil & DigiMash systems, they do not have some of the features like automated step mashing and built in pump. But the lower cost makes them great units for first time all-grain brewers or someone looking to add an electric HLT or MT to your existing setup.


 

MoreBeer has announced the availability of Gen 4 BrewZilla systems. As of this posting they’re accepting pre-orders. Order now to get in on the first shipment.

Announcing: Kegland Digital Keg Pressure Gauge

This combines a Kegland Ball Lock QD with a DuoTight 0-90 PSI Digital Pressure Gauge to for a digital keg pressure gauge. These have lots of uses, including checking for CO2 leaks and monitoring keg pressures.

This setup works even if – gasp! 🙂 – you aren’t using DuoTights as your draft fitting system.

Kegland’s DuoTight system along with their EVABarrier Tubing are amazing. Check out my extensive hands on review for a deep dive into the system.

Duotight Regulator with Gauge

Duotight Regulator with Gauge via William’s Brewing

More Info

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

This 8mm Duotight compatible regulator with 0-60 PSI gauge fits 8mm outer diameter EvaBarrier tubing. Suitable for gas, all components are food grade. The included gauge is accurate to plus or minus 6 PSI.

Note: This unit comes with a 0-60 PSI gauge that is only ¾” in diameter. If you intend to use this regulator in the 10 to 30 PSI range, you will need to order optional gauge C93, which reads 0-30 PSI. Below 10 psi, this regulator is not very accurate. You will also need EvaBarrier tubing to connect this regulator, either our item number Z91 or Z92.

This is perfect for reducing the pressure of one gas line in a draft system – for example, with a single regulator and C02 bottle, you can set the pressure at the C02 bottle with the larger regulator (not included) and then put this regulator inline to reduce the pressure. Handy for when you want to carbonate one keg at 25 PSI and dispense another at 10 PSI.


 

 

  • This allows you to easily and economically control the pressure of each kegerator line independently.
  • As of this posting, William’s Brewing is offering a quantity discount of 10% off when you buy 4 or more.
  • Check out my in depth hands on review of this great tool

Hands on Review: Kegland Fill-O-Meter

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.

Kegland Fill-O-Meter

Homebrewing is full of gadgets. There are some things that are high tech versions of common equipment everyone has and uses. Then there are gadgets that are unique in what they do. They maybe aren’t a requirement for brewing, or aren’t things you’d find in every brewer’s toolbox. The Kegland Fill-O-Meter is definitely one of these. The Fill-O-Meter has two functions- turning on & off the water flow, and measuring the amount of water that goes through it. The intersection of these two functions is where it becomes a handy tool in the home brewery.

Fill-O-Meter in BoxSpecs on Side of Box

The Fill-O-Meter has ½” threaded inlet and outlet ports. They are BSP thread, not NPT, so you need to be extra careful when tightening on any NPT fittings to make sure you don’t strip out any threads or end up with leaks. The solenoid inside has a fail-safe such that if you lose power for some reason, the solenoid stays closed and prevents water from flowing. The unit comes with a 24V power supply plug to run the on/off solenoid, as well as the LCD backlit digital screen. The screen displays the current flow rate (in gallons/minute or liters/minute), your target water volume, and how much water has flowed past it since you turned it on. You can select for the display to be in units of US Gallons, or in Liters. You also have the option to display language in English or Chinese (if you’re in the mood). You can also tweak the flowmeter calibration constant to improve the accuracy for your given setup or if you’re going to measure in US gallons (adjustment needed, as explained in my hands on review section).

Kegland DuoTight BlowTie v2 Spunding Valve via William’s Brewing – Save When You Buy 4 or More + Hands on Review

15 PSI Duotight Blowtie Spunding Valve with Gauge

DuoTight BlowTie Spunding Valve With Gauge

More Info

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

The BlowTie is a diaphragm based adjustable spunding valve used to release pressure from kegs and other pressure vessels. It features a usable range of 4 to 15 PSI, and the diaphragm construction means it has a wider pressure range than spring based spundling valves. This unit can be easily disassembled for cleaning using a phillips head screw driver. Accuracy of the gauge is plus or minus 2 PSI.


 

A Spunding Valve allows you to ferment under pressure, naturally and precisely carbonate in the keg, fix over-carbonated beers and lots more. See: Build a Spunding Valve – for loads of information on building and using a Spunding Valve.

  • This is a great homebrew tool!  Check out my Hands on Review!
  • As of this posting, William’s Brewing is offering a quantity discount of 10% off when you buy 4 or more.

Multi-Pressure CO2 Options

Maintaining multiple CO2 pressures in your kegerator gives you the ability to… keep kegs at different pressures.  This is a requirement to maintain different carbonation levels. It’s also handy if you want to force carbonate a keg more quickly, at a higher pressure, while maintaining your standard serving pressure on a keg that’s already being served or if you want to have a utility line for purging kegs and such. continues below…

Kegland Ball Lock Line Cleaning Kit – $12.99 + Hands on Review

kegland ball lock cleaning pump

Ball Lock Line Cleaning Kit w/ Mini Party Pump

More Info

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

This simple pump kit is a great way to clean your draft lines when you don’t want to waste CO2 or mix up a full batch of line cleaner. The PCO tee piece can be attached to a PET beer bottle or repurposed soda bottle, then pressurized with the hand pump to push cleaner through your ball lock disconnect and draft lines.

You can also use the pump kit to turn just about any PET bottle into a mini party keg; one that’s easy to take with you while leaving your gas equipment at home. But since you’ll be using air to push the beer out, we recommend consuming the contents of the bottle well within 24 hours.

Kit Contains:

Yellow carbonation cap
Red Tee Piece – 28mm PCO 1881 Threads (Female x Male x Male)
Mini yellow hand pump
11.75″ length of EVABarrier tubing (5mm ID x 8mm OD)
PET Bottle not included
KegLand Part Number: KL20220


 

This gets you a PET carbonation cap + a carbonation cap tee + pump + dip tube. Together this combo can be used to clean draft lines, as a party pump for portable serving or as separate components.

This is an extremely versatile piece of gear. Check out my in depth Hands on Review

Announcing: Kegland DuoTight Ball Lock Disconnects w/Flow Control!

Kegland’s DuoTight Fittings are designed to work with EVABarrier Double Wall Tubing.  They offer quick, reliable connections, easy implementation, a variety of fitting options and feature amazing versatility.  They’re also, generally speaking, very well priced.  DuoTights are push to connect fittings and require no tubing clamps.

DuoTights are… awesome.  Check out my extensive Hands on Review

When DuoTights first came out, the solution for connecting kegs to EVABarrier was using an MFL QD + DuoTight Flare fitting. That worked just fine and is still the only option available to pin lock keg users.

A while back native DuoTight Ball Lock QDs were introduced. Those are outstanding. Check out My Review

I’m excited to announce another Kegland innovation.  DuoTight Ball Lock QDs + Flow Control!

These will allow DuoTight and EVABarrier users to easily dial in resistance without long lengths of tubing.

Hands on Review: Kegland 2.5 Gallon Ball Lock Kegs!

Updated: November 13, 2024

Kegland, based in Australia, produces a broad array of homebrewing gear. fermenters, electric brewing systems, loads of draft stuff (including DuoTight!) and lots more.

It’s obvious these folks are homebrewers at heart, because they’ve come up some really innovative stuff. The other thing they’ve generally done is hit really good price points. There is a balance between cost, features and quality and they seem to be hitting a lot of bullseyes.

This is an in depth hands on look at Kegland’s 2.5 gallon ball lock keg.

Why a 2.5 Gallon Keg?

2.5 gallon kegs are great for splitting batches, small batch brewers, doing one-off beers from split from a 5 gallon batch… or for easily serving on the go.  Purge with CO2, fill from your tap and place in ice in a 5 gallon bucket…. whammo! You can also use these in conjunction with an inline secondary as a CO2 source for portable serving.

Now In Stock and Shipping… Kegland RAPT Temperature Controlled Fermentation Chamber

 

homebrew fermentation chamber

RAPT Temperature Controlled Fermentation Chamber

More Info

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

Finally, a purpose-built fermentation chamber! Homebrewers have been repurposing refrigerators for fermentation temperature control since as far back as we can remember—and with good reason. These appliances provide excellent insulation from outside temperatures, are usually large enough to fit a typical fermenter used for 5-gallon batches, and provide incredibly even temperature distribution compared to immersed cooling coils. But to call the RAPT a refrigerator made for brewers would be doing this unit a huge disservice. KegLand has engineered a fermentation chamber that cools, heats, and automatically guides your beer through your very own programmed fermentation profiles which can be monitored and controlled remotely via WiFi or Bluetooth.

Virtually any homemade product can be greatly improved with perfect temperature control. The RAPT Fermentation Chamber gives you an electrically efficient means of setting, monitoring and controlling temperature which is perfect for beer making, wine making, salami making, leavening bread, fermenting yogurt, kombucha, kimchi, sauerkraut, making cheers, spirit washes, germinating seeds, growing sprouts, and much, much more. Accurate temp control is one of the most crucial factors to getting reliable and repeatable results.

The RAPT’s control panel comes complete with an integrated color TFT screen. The 4-button color display conveniently shows a log of historic temperature graphs, allows you to start/set/stop temperature profiles, and gives you access to other critical information for that particular fermentation. An integrated secondary regulator can be used to regulate gas into the fridge with the Duotight In-Line Regulator on one side, and on the other you can install an integrated BlowTie 2 Spunding Valve to regulate residual pressure in your fermenter.

For more accurate readings of the core temperature of your fermenter, we highly recommend using a thermowell and the 6.5 ft. probe extension. If you’re using a FermZilla, check out this thermowell with Duotight bulkhead.

Perfect as a Kegerator too!
This multipurpose fridge can also be used as a kegerator. In particularly cold climates where the ambient temp is below zero, this fridge can warm your kegs and prevent them from freezing. This fridge also has a higher keg storage capacity than a conventional kegerator that takes up the same footprint. This unit can hold 4 x 5-gallon kegs on the floor and has enough headroom that you can also fit another layer of 2.5-gallon half size kegs above. To fit beer taps you can drill your own holes through the door.

What is RAPT?
RAPT is a dedicated Internet of Things (IOT) Hub for fermentation logging and control. It’s a free service whereby any RAPT-enabled product can both log and store data to the hub where you can conveniently access it. The RAPT hub can also allow you to control your devices remotely giving you absolute control of the device irrespective of where you are. The RAPT portal enables you to make complex temperature profiles that involve different temperature settings over time meaning you can start/run a temp profile giving you a set and forget experience. The RAPT portal also controls the alert/notification process for you so you can receive email notifications in the off chance that something doesn’t go to plan.

Why Buy a Fridge Over a Glycol Chiller?
Although we’ve had great success controlling fermentation temps with an immersed cooling apparatus with a glycol chiller providing the cooling solution, these setups do present several potential issues:

Glycol chillers often require a very cold liquid to enter into a fermenter causing an excessively cold part in the fermenter core which leads to uneven temperature distribution.
Glycol chillers consume significant amounts of power and in most instances more than double what this fridge would consume.
Glycol chillers often result in spilling sticky glycol especially when hoses are connected and disconnected to the fermenter.
Glycol chillers generally require penetrations through the walls/lid of the fermenter making the fermenter less sanitary and requiring more cleaning.
Often fermenters are not made with sufficient insulation, so when using a glycol chiller much of the chilling is lost to the ambient environment. This is not only power inefficient but you can end up with a large temperature gradient. This temperature gradient can result in convection currents in the fermenter that make it difficult for yeast and other solids to settle out of suspension so clarification of the beer takes significantly longer.
Many glycol chillers and fermenter combinations do not have sufficient power or are not well enough insulated to cool to sub-freezing temperatures so cold crashing is not possible. This is a significant compromise to a temperature-controlled solution and also results in less ability to clarify the finished beer.
For these reasons KegLand has developed the world’s first dedicated RAPT-enabled fermentation chamber that can cool down to -2°C (28°F) and heat up to 50°C (122°F) even in hot and cold weather.

More Info

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

Ready to head over to your friend’s spot, but all your homebrew is kegged? With the KegLand Counter Pressure Bottle Filler you can get those tasty suds into a to-go bottle in no time flat. Filling a growler straight from the tap is always an option, but if you want your beer to be at its best when you share it with the world, counter pressure filling is the only way to go. This handy filling device will make sure your brew doesn’t pick up oxygen or lose carbonation in the filling process, keeping your creation in tip-top condition.

The KegLand filler shines in its versatility. Few counter pressure fillers have as many connection options. Use your preffered 3/16″ or 1/4″ draft line clamped directly to the barbs. The barbs are Duotight-compatible, so you also have the option of using a 6.35mm x 8mm Duotight reducer to connect EVABarrier tubing—the best draft line option if you want to quickly break down the filler after use without fussing with hose clamps. Additionally, you can replace the barbs with Ball Lock Bulkheads to directly connect gas and bev QDs.

Whether you’re filling bottles to share or filling your competition submission, the KegLand Counter Pressure Filler will make sure your beer doesn’t suffer any degredation.

Features:

Foam free draw from the keg to bottle
Bleed valve to purge CO2 from the bottles
6.35mm (1/4″) Duotight compatible barb for CO2 inlet

The RAPT hub can also allow you to control your devices remotely giving you absolute control of the device irrespective of where you are. The RAPT portal enables you to make complex temperature profiles that involve different temperature settings over time meaning you can start/run a temp profile giving you a set and forget experience. The RAPT portal also controls the alert/notification process for you so you can receive email notifications in the off chance that something doesn’t go to plan.

Why Buy a Fridge Over a Glycol Chiller?
Although we’ve had great success controlling fermentation temps with an immersed cooling apparatus with a glycol chiller providing the cooling solution, these setups do present several potential issues:

Glycol chillers often require a very cold liquid to enter into a fermenter causing an excessively cold part in the fermenter core which leads to uneven temperature distribution.
Glycol chillers consume significant amounts of power and in most instances more than double what this fridge would consume.
Glycol chillers often result in spilling sticky glycol especially when hoses are connected and disconnected to the fermenter.
Glycol chillers generally require penetrations through the walls/lid of the fermenter making the fermenter less sanitary and requiring more cleaning.
Often fermenters are not made with sufficient insulation, so when using a glycol chiller much of the chilling is lost to the ambient environment. This is not only power inefficient but you can end up with a large temperature gradient. This temperature gradient can result in convection currents in the fermenter that make it difficult for yeast and other solids to settle out of suspension so clarification of the beer takes significantly longer.
Many glycol chillers and fermenter combinations do not have sufficient power or are not well enough insulated to cool to sub-freezing temperatures so cold crashing is not possible. This is a significant compromise to a temperature-controlled solution and also results in less ability to clarify the finished beer.
For these reasons KegLand has developed the world’s first dedicated RAPT-enabled fermentation chamber that can cool down to -2°C (28°F) and heat up to 50°C (122°F) even in hot and cold weather.
