I really like hot sauces but if i could only have one condiment it would be pepper, good fresh black pepper, I apply it liberally to everything.

Nice score, If only we were all that generous.

I'd like to convert at least one of these to a brew kettle and eventually build a three tier sculpture...assuming I find a good deal on 3 kegs;) http://nh.craigslist.org/hsh/2094885426.html

I've always thought of the born on date when the beer was bottled, and thinking about it I wish all bottle conditioned beer had a bottled on date.

I have to agree this is soo true! After locking myself out of my car after a long day of work plus having a flat tire, beer never tasted soo good.

Another NH Home brewer, Good to meet you, I'm in Stratham just a short drive from you.

Sorry, I know I should have kept my mouth shut, and I know we all have different tastes. :o

think I Just threw up a little in my mouth. OK I'm leaving, hope someone can help you.

I hope so...anyway I think the campden tablets would have been the safest bet, but i don't have any so I'm just going to take the risk and see what happens.

Yeah it will be very dry, I just sampled a hard cider i have going that consists of 5 gallons fresh pressed cider and 3 pound dextrose. It's OG was 1.075 and the reading i just got after 6 weeks 0.990 It's definitively got a bit of an alcohol burn to it.

Apfelwein is just about the only drink that does not give me a hang-over...hardly even a headache. That doesn't mean i haven't found my pants in weird parts of my house not understanding why there their the next day...lol

I've been wondering if their were many negatives to bulk aging the cider on the trub...I'f I were to rack it to a secondary it would be in a week or so once my apfelwein finishes.

I've had a hard cider going for just about 6 weeks now and just yesterday the airlock essentially stopped bubbling. It's had a fruit fly in the airlock for a while now and i just got some suck back :o ...Is my batch going to turn to vinegar? is there anything I can do? FYI my airlock has...

Where is the photo? sounds like just like an excuse to me.

Generally the higher the ABV the longer your going to want to let it age. So yes you will have something drinkable, maybe 2 weeks after being bottled but most likely it will be far Superior at 6 months
