    ABOUT ME

  • I'm a pretty simple guy who loves craft beer. My favorites are Stouts, Imperial Stouts, and Porters but I also like Amber Ales and Nut Browns quite a bit. I won't turn my nose up at anything PBR or above. Lower than that and the beer snob in me comes out.

    It will continue to carb and age in the fridge, just at a slower rate.Interesting, I thought

    I just bottled a beer last Thursday. I wanted it carbed to about 2.8 volumes. It seems to be
    there and tasting great already. I've done several batches and never had one condition this
    fast. Eight now...

    Completely normal. Usually, the first leaves to emerge will be kind of spade shaped and whole.
    A set or three later they'll begin to take on the appearance of that particular variety,
    3,5,7-lobed or s...

    Not sure about the leaf shape, but it appears that you have aphids or some sort of critters (it
    originally loaded the pictures huge and they're pretty obvious). Not sure if they're beneficial
    or harmf...

    This is my first year growing hops. I remember Reading awhile back that you can't tell two
    plants apart because the leaves are identical. So...is it normal to have different leaves on
    the same plant?
