Beerthoven, GRABASS no longer does events and buys here on HBT. Too many rules. We have our own little slice of heaven for that now. Ask Walker if you don't know where to find us.

I just have a 32oz or so cup? that I use to help measure grain that I filled up, and then rinsed and added to the mash tun. Perhaps buttload was a poor unit of measure. I will try to improve going forward. BTW- diacetyl rest currently in affect. Lagering to commence shortly. Probably at...

For those of you on the East side, there's CARBOY. http://www.carboyclub.com/

Brewed 11 gallons of this on Sunday and am officially going to Lager it. Recipe I used was as follows: 14# American 2-row 5# Flaked Corn 1.5# Crystal 120 Buttload of rice hulls 1oz Cluster @ 60 1oz Cascade @ 30 Mashed at 150. OG: 1.052 (better efficiency than expected) IBU: 18.5 Fermenting...

The trick to getting accepted to the forum is making sure you put what city/town/whatever you are from. Meeting locations change from month to month and are the 4th wednesday. The forum will tell you where. Worst case, come to Triangle Wine in Morrisville on Aug 25th for a fantastic...

Poo- what category did you enter this in for the comp? Vienna Lager I assume?

It always makes me happy to see people still brewing this beer and liking the results. Glad folks are enjoying it!

Wow. Now here's an old thread. I remember this day. It was cold as ****! Good times though.

Welcome to HBT, where if you don't follow along, you're doing it wrong. :)

BM- just wanted to say again you have another winner with this one. Took 10 gallons to a buddy's wedding this weekend and came home with none. Definitely not my favorite style (although it is the grooms favorite style) and it was my favorite beer I made. I also brought 10 gallons each of...

Also new in Durham is Bull City Burger and Brewery. The beer scene here really has been blowing up and there are a ton of homebrewers in the area as well.

I made a starter Tuesday night with some expired Wyeast kolsch yeast. Well, it FINALLY started to krausen today. Talk about a lag time. It was 1000ml of water with 100g of light DME. I haven't smelled it or anything yet, my g/f sent me a picture earlier. Do you think I should use it in my brew...

This group buy closes at 5:00pm on Wednesday, 4/20/11. Thanks.

3 rigs, 20 gallons. http://www.ustream.tv/channel/skeeordye11

I'm planning on brewing this on Sunday with a couple changes. Crystal 60 (cuz I have 10# of it) Mash a little higher for some more mouthfeel, and I'm gonna put it on a Greenbelt yeast cake. I've got a # of centennial in the freezer that needs to get used for something, so why not this? I have...
