Haha! We just need to know what happened. ie i was sleeping heard a bang...spoke tp police..etc. I feel you pain though we know you don't know what happened but we have to ask. At least they did not leave the scene. When people hit and run it is the same as stealing in my book. If they...

I spend all day adjusting claims and then you guys start this. I have only had a few fender benders. Nothing on the level as the other posts.

I agree. Did you consider making your brew day longer? get up early and mash in. then let it sit for a few hours and then get done what you need to. come back later and sparge boil. That way you can split it up and get done what you need to in between. IF it is not too windy out i can...

I recently switched to primary only, and i think my beers have improved, and brewing has become easier. I think that clarity of the beer should be a non-issue when it comes to secondaries. This idea i have is new in my head but my reason being: if you leave the beer in the bottles long enough...

I like using the roasted barley for my reds, i like the flavor that comes out of it better than the other malts listed. i made a red with all armarillo not to long ago and it was spectacular one of the best beers i have ever made.

Efficiency stays the same no matter the boil. IT all depends on the volume that goes into the fermenter. You OG will be higher but you will have less wort. If you increase the volume of water you use for sparge and then boil vigouroulsy to get a larger boil off and same volume then you would be...

i was watching date line about a guy who apparently pushed his wife off a cliff. There was some home footage of him opening up a nice wort chiller on Christmas. I don't know if he actually did it as it just started, but how could a guy kill his wife who got him brewing equipment?? i will keep...

IF you recirculate throughout the entire mash doesn't the dead space becomes negligible?

Anyone do any surfcasting? Swmbo family recently got a house on cape cod and she is going to want to go to the beach all the time (i cant sit still for that long.) I am not much of a fisher but i was wondering if someone could point me towards what kind of rod and tackle i would use for...

I have been playing for a couple years now. SHot the best game of my life last saturday with a 94! I was laughing at how well i was palying it was a complete fluke so strange it was comical. Played on sunday and couldnt follow up i shot a 107.

I think that the bottles have the advantage of variety. When i was bottling i always had four or five drinkable beers to drink. Now that my kegerator only holds two kegs i am only drinking two different beers at at a time and have to wait till the keg is gone till i move on. Needles to say i...

I don't think op was knocking students if he didin't like them then he should move. Don't forget it is perfect time for sanyo fridges thats how i got mine last year.

I like Bud heavy for: working outside, hot days, and golfing. IT has its place and i enjoy it.

I think all stainless is cooler, i have some brass but will slowly convert to all stainless.
