DIY Beer Keg Urinal for Your Garage or Man Cave Bathroom

My intention was never to create a ‘series,’ maybe just three parts at most, but here we are! I hope you’re enjoying these episodes as much as I am enjoying editing and producing them.

We’re making good progress on our project, and I’m definitely picking up new skills along the way. The drain installation presented a challenge, but we successfully resolved it. Overall, things are moving along smoothly, despite a few hiccups that we’ve managed to overcome.

In this episode, I’ll review the challenges I faced with my choice of drains and discuss what was determined to be the best solution. Also, I’ll explain to you how I plan to connect this system to the house drain and how the beer keg urinal will be mounted to the wall.

Don’t forget to subscribe for the final episode in this series (though it won’t be the end)!

Remember when we fermented a beer on the roof in 110ºF heat? Well, now it’s time to taste it!

To recap, we brewedd the Craft a Brew Single Hop IPA kit, but swapped the yeast for VOSS Kviek – a heat loving string that thrives and ferments fast in extreme temperatures.

We put it on the roof during the heat dome to put this yeast to the test and it paid off. We taste BIG orange marmalade & zesty notes thanks to the yeast, which exhibits more flavor when fermented in higher heat.

We rate it: GREAT!

Pick up a beer kit & one of 5 Kveik strains in our shop to perform your own rooftop experiment!

I am so excited for this week’s episode. I had such a good time chatting with my new friend, Charlie, from @goldenhivemead – if you’re familiar with us and you are on ANY social media platform, there is no doubt in my mind that you already know who Charlie is. His videos are often viral sensations, his experiments are fun to follow, and – most importantly – he’s such a good dude.

Enjoy the next hour or so because it’s time for another episode of our Homebrew Happy Hour podcast!… THE home brew #podcast where we answer all of your home brewing questions and discuss anything related to craft beer! This week, I’m so happy that Todd and James are both on the show. It was a great time recording and we covered a lot of ground, I think.
