I'm in the same boat. Is it Rager or Tinseth? It would be nice if the app enabled the user to choose which one he wants to use.

I'm trying to pinpoint a leak in my system. When I turn off the gas on my tank, is it normal that the low side gauge on my C02 reg goes all the way down to 0 eventually, like over 48hr period? I was under the impression that if there is no leak, the gauge should be holding pressure even if the...

Gravity is your friend. Let it settle out a few weeks after ferm and really cold.

So I need to send a 6 pack to NHC in Washington at the end of June and I was thinking about using Canada Post. Has anybody ever used their service before? The shipping calculator gave me an estimate of 4 days and didn't mention anything about it being illegal. I just don't want to have...

I've never dry hopped tennis balls before. Interesting technique...:rockin:

That's a great idea. Never thought of supporting the shaft near the mill. I don't have access to the exact same parts, but a recessed bearing in a 3/4" plywood piece would probably do the job. Thanks for the tip!

How could you get 13+ gallons if you were intending on getting a 5.5 gallon batch? Fell asleep while sparging?

Is it tasting any better after 5 1/2 years?

Looks good! How'd it taste? Should be well carbed by now!

I'm thinking that this was one of your first posts Orfy? I'd go with a good old bitter with your homegrown hops but I guess you've found a good recipe already since you're up to well over 11 000 posts!

The book is even better!

Is there still some krausen on your beer Cheesefood? It should have fallen to the bottom of your fermenter sometime late 2006 or early 2007. Pretty sure you're ok to bottle or keg now...
