    ABOUT ME

  • Tampa
  • I am happily married and child free. I love to play golf but am really bad at it, love to fish and am much better at that. I go to see live music whenever I can and have an extensive music collection. I am not an audiophile but appreciate quality equipment and good sound reproduction. My wife and I travel whenever we can, probably a lot by most people's standards. I enjoy reading but rarely have time to indulge. I work because I like to play, and not being independently wealthy one goes with the other.

  • Operations Manager
  • Chuck Chapman
  • whatever I'm listening to at the moment
  • Pulp Fiction, Office Space, Animal House, Rob Roy, Total Recall
  • Family Guy, South Park, Two and a Half Men
  • A Pirate Looks at Fifty - Jimmy Buffet, A Boy's Life - Robert McCammon
  • Tampa Bay B.E.E.R.S. homebrewers club.
  • A friend bought me a kit for Christmas 2006 and it really took off from there. I am closing in on seventy 5.5 gallon batches and have recently gone all grain and moved up to full volume boils. I used to brew less in the summer due to the high temps here in Fla but I recently got a 13 cubic ft freezer and a Johnson controller so summer brewing is no longer an issue.
  • I have settled on a few recipes that are all pretty good. They are a blonde, a hefe, a pale ale, a red ale and a stout. I am currently converting these from partial to all grain and tweaking them along the way.
  • Whipping Post IPA
  • nada
  • I currently bottle everything I brew so if it's not in primary or secondary it's in the bottle.
  • I have not taken the plunge for kegging yet - it's on the horizon though.

    3 weeks will be ideal for carbonating and conditioning, but if you don't have a pipeline
    running you will be anxious to drink those beers... That's fine, they will be carbonated long
    before that, but ...

  • Posted in thread: Five bucks a pint for Happy Hour on 04-22-2013 at 07:53 PM
    Most of the micros / nanos / brewpubs in the Tampa Bay area are at $5-6 a pint for their own
    beers and a dollar more for guest taps. The beer bars are $5-7+ for anything non BMC and most
    of the places...
