Hmmm. Well, if you'd had more than the one post since the middle of April, I'd think you might
read my response, but we can't rule out lurkers so I'll let you know what I know. The guy I was
dealing w...

I thought it might be something like that. I've sent the email so we should be good to go.
Thanks Birdman.

It keeps telling me that it won't ship to my address. Kind of a funny error for a downloadable
product.
Posted in thread: Double immersion wort chiller on 08-13-2010 at 01:36 AM
Well, you'd cool the first pot and then run hot water through the second. So the maximum temp
of the water flowing in the second pot would be no lower than the temp of the wort in the
first. You'd be ...

Well if you cooled your keg to carbonate it you'll slow down your aging. In the end you'll wind
up waiting even longer if you wait until it's ready. I stopped using anything to clear my beer.

10 day primary. that should have cleared up the yeast haze. i was very careful when
transferring to the k...
Posted in thread: Filtering *instead* of secondary fermentation? on 06-16-2010 at 07:34 PM
I say nay. You can't filter diacetyl and other fermentation by-products too small for the
filter to take out so the yeast needs to hang around and clean that up for you. Not only that,
your filter wil...

I have to disagree. I haven't done it myself, but heating the part in the banjo and then
letting it wick into the hot joint should work well. I can't see how you'd get any more heat
transfer than a to...
Posted in thread: "Disabled ads"??? on 05-06-2010 at 03:47 AM
Ok, so if I pay $25 for 6 years, that's $150. Just saying that's all. I certainly appreciate
everything I learn here, just haven't found the need to donate yet.Well, what I was getting at
is that you ...
Posted in thread: "Disabled ads"??? on 05-06-2010 at 03:25 AM
I want to donate and I asked the question if I donate $25 per year for 5 or 6 years, do I then
get a lifetime membership? I think you'll find that if you rent a house for 25 years those
