6 gallons of cream stout + 17241 = 17247 gallons

I feel your pain, I didn't win sh*t at H24 either.

I checked a bottle on a domestic flight last week, no issues. Internationally, I don't know; I'd imagine it depends on the arriving country's policies.

...I freaking break them all the time. Hey, that's where I thought this thread was going. :fro:

The irony here is the "sissys" part.

As was pointed out, don't rinse - that negates the sanitizing effect of the starsan and pretty much defeats its purpose.

I do it the opposite way. Dry hop at room temp, then cold crash to drop the hops to the bottom, among other things.

That sucks, that show with Calgione was pretty entertaining. Freaking evil BMC empire (if the Bourdain rumor is true).

That extra beer in the fermenter is just a nice little bonus. :mug:

574. Broke another one. You'd think by now I'd learn to PUT IT BACK IN IT'S CASE IMMEDIATELY AFTER I USE IT. Duh.

To avoid tannins and possible astringency.

I use 168, and certainly no more than 170.

I like to go big or go home. I used 4 oz of whole Cascade in my last 5 gal batch of an XPA, and it was incredible. No bag, and most of the hops settled in the cold crash.

Done. Good luck, all.

You could point out to this lucky sumbuck (geez, his wife brews, if that's not the definition of heaven, then what is?) that plenty of commercial breweries get used longnecks from bars, refill and sell them....
