    Joe's Ancient Orange Mead

    3 gallon batch started last night. Bubbling away. Kind of cool in the fact that when first mixed the raisins and cloves fall down to the bottom; heavier even than the high OG mixture. But as soon as fermentation began, the CO2 bubbles adhere to the outside of the raisins (and possibly some...

    If you LOVE your job...

    Okay... quite a while coming, but a job change. I'm pretty excited/anxious about it. During the current environment here in the US, the military is being forced to cut back on contracts and thus my job from before is going away. So now I've been offered and accepted a new job flying in the...

    What do you do while mashing in??

    Drink a homebrew, smoke a cigar and plan the next brew session.

    Brewers Association Responds to FDA’s Spent Grain Proposal

    Hmm... This is likely why Oskar Blues has their own farm to rid themselves of their spent grain. I know I don't package mine to feed it to my horses... and they love it!

    Social acceptance - Bringing your children to a brewery

    Wow. Just read through this entire thread. I keep thinking about Stripes. Psycho: You just made the list, buddy. And I don't like nobody touching my stuff. So just keep your meat-hooks off. If I catch any of you guys in my stuff, I'll kill you. Also, I don't like nobody touching me. Now, any...

    So.. your neighbor comes by and drinks one of your beers...

    Some people have little manners. Our Mamas taught us "if you cannot say something nice, don't say anything". I strive to be polite with guests in my home. I likely would have tried to provide him with something more to his liking while silently thinking "you can't fix stupid". Oh that...

    Wet shaving thread.

    Great deal there! One of my fondest and worst memories was my Dad "teaching" me how to shave when I was around 3. He had an extra Gillette red tip that he would take the blade out of and let me lather my face with Foamy and "shave" it all off along side him doing the real thing while sharing the...

    Wet shaving thread.

    Yeah.. like many a person new to wet shaving I went through a semi-long stage of RAD/SBAD/SSAD/SCAD/BAD. I had, at one time 20 or so soaps, 10 tubes and 10tubs of cream, 5 different brushes, and 10 vintage DE razors. I write it all off as to the learning curve. Initially I was NOT getting...

    My Beef With Craft Beers in America

    It's all good brother. Amazingly, I think you have a right to your opinion to your preference in styles of beer. I happen to be a hop head who really likes DIPA and RIS. Those who don't leave more on the shelf for me. But, I guarantee that the Craft brewers can shape the market only so far...
