Can you help me fix my kegerator, regulator or other equipment?

Our staff's knowledge of equipment repair is based on personal experience in our own homebrewing; we are not experts or repair technicians. While we will do our best to help you troubleshoot, most equipment diagnosis and repair is beyond our scope of practice.

If you are having an issue with your kegerator, please contact the manufacturer.

If you are having an issue with your regulator, please contact T&R Welding Supplies or another local regulator repair facility.

We carry replacement parts for beverage faucets, sanke couplers, and ball lock / pin lock kegs. Please use these explosion diagrams to diagnose the issue, so that you can purchase an appropriate replacement part.

 

Do you refill CO2 tanks?

We exchange empty CO2, Beer Gas and Nitrogen tanks for full ones, but we do not fill the tanks on site. We also offer outright purchases if you do not have a cylinder to exchange.

Pricing and availability can be found on our website:
CO2, 2.5lb
CO2, 5lb
CO2, 10lb
CO2, 20lb
Beer Gas, 5lb
Nitrogen, 5lb
Nitrogen, 10lb

 

Do you buy or take donations of used brewing equipment?

We do not buy or accept donations of used brewing equipment.

The one exception to this is CO2, Beer Gas and Nitrogen tanks, which we may purchase in exchange for store credit.

If you're looking to sell or donate your used equipment, OfferUp, Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace are great places to start. You might also reach out to our local homebrew club, Rat City Homebrewers - ratcityhomebrewers@gmail.com

Do you carry (product)? Is it currently in stock? How much does it cost?

All products available in our store are listed on our website with their current prices. Use the search function to locate a specific product, or browse the collections for a general overview. If you do not see a product listed on our website, it means that we do not carry it, or it is seasonal and not currently available.

Our website has live inventory tracking, which means that if you see a product available on the website, it is highly likely that we have it in stock, so go ahead and place your order.

If you place an order for a product and we find that the product is out of stock, we will not collect payment on your order and we will contact you immediately to see if you'd prefer to cancel your order or wait until the product is back in stock.

Can I order a product that isn't in your store?

Of course! For special orders, please send an email to info@soundhomebrew.com with a description of the product you're looking for. We will check with our vendors to see if we can source it. If we can, we'll respond to your email with a price quote and arrival timeline. If you decide to move forward with the order, we will email you an invoice, which must be paid before we can place the order.

Do you offer a military discount?

Yes! Active military, full-time teachers and paraeducators, and active members of the American Homebrewers' Association receive 5% off every order!

Commercial breweries, wineries, distilleries, etc. receive a 10% discount with submission of either a Reseller Permit or current business license.
