    I added heavy cream to my wort!

    Yeah, but at least at the end of Lost they straight up told you were a sucker for watching with that deliberate crappy ending. This dude put cream in his boil. And it killed him. And he didn't leave a will with a request in it to tell the HBTalk folks how it tasted. Did Creamy Goodness ever get...

    I added heavy cream to my wort!

    You have got to be fricking kidding me. I stayed up late reading this goddamn thread from start to finish like a freaking novel and he just up and dies? Can't at least the fourth roommate who thought it was nasty get online and let us know that this foul, ungodly creation killed him in the...

    Freezer Thermostat doesn't seem accurate

    I did feel inside the freezer. It felt pretty cold but I'm not a great judge of that based on just touching. Here are some pics. I know the pic of the thermostat is fuzzy but that may not be that crucial.

    Freezer Thermostat doesn't seem accurate

    Hi Folks, I recently bought a 7cu. ft. Holiday chest freezer and a Johnson Controls A19AAT-2C Freezer Temperature Controller to manage the temperature. I just ran the probe under the freezer lid through the back and laid it on the hump with a dry washrag under it to keep it from touching the...

    Man, I love Apfelwein

    O-M-Freaking-G. Why have I not tried this yet?? This looks Awesome! Im doing it this weekend. Hell, maybe even tonight! One question though, at what temperature does the wine yeast ferment best?

    Watermelon Wheat

    I think you should let it condition at least a week or two more before writing it off. I didn't like the taste after the first week, but 2 weeks later it was much better. Other people who used real watermelon reported the same thing, that the beginning was nasty but after some time it got to be...

    Try my Dark Ale recipe

    Guys, I put this recipe together in my head thinking it just sounded pretty good and brewed it up a month ago. I liked it, it had a bit of hop flavor, very little hop bite but had the dark ale characteristics that I like. It is a very simple recipe and only my second self-designed beer. brew it...

    Are there any "rule of thumb" methods for balancing keg systems?

    Yeah, I have tried different serving pressures and that didn't help much without venting the kegs a bunch. I hate venting them because I don't want to eject hop aroma from the beer. I will buy some longer beer lines and play with that. Thanks for all your suggestions. I'm glad it can be just...

    Are there any "rule of thumb" methods for balancing keg systems?

    I have a kegerator with 3 kegs and a 10ln c02 tank in it. here are three separate regulators going to each keg. I have two taps through the door and one cobra head picnic tap on the third. I typically keep the fridge around 45 degrees and the regulators set to 10psi. (i know that I need to set...

    Watermelon Wheat

    Well if that is an unnecessary step, then it could take a little of the work out of it. I will try that next time, and maybe strain out the pulp. I just left it in the first time.

    New to All grain brewing

    Guys, I just wanted to revisit this thread. I have brewed about 10 all grain batches since my first post. I have done it sober, I have done it drunk, I have done it while boiling crawfish, and I have even sprained an ankle trying to run to the water hose faucet to turn it on to chill the wort...
