    Yes...my first fermentation geyser...

    Well... maybe not a geyser... So this morning I checked on the carboy I just put into the crawlspace yesterday and there was tons of headroom left. Oddly enough, this was right after reading a ferm-lock vs blow-off thread... Then I come home to this: Oops.... After dropping...

    My new Mandarin Hefeweizen is kicking my ass...

    Kegged my new Mandarin Hefeweizen recipe yesterday, did a shake carb and decided to take a sample today. Still needs a bit more carbing, but it definitely doesn't need more alcohol... I over shot my efficiency on this batch by a ton, and didn't get the 5% I was aiming for... it finished at...

    GCBF 2008 - Sept 5 & 6 Victoria BC Canada

    Who else from the Pacific Northwest is going to the Great Canadian Beer Festival in Victoria? I finally got off my butt this year and grabbed a Friday ticket before they sold out; I can't wait to try some breweries that I can't get locally. The Great Canadian Beer Festival Breweries...

    Do you think I could sneak this purchase past my SWMBO? ;)

    Complete U Brew Business I'm sure if I was clever with the paperwork and drove it into the garage at night, she'd be none the wiser... Well, except for the garage smelling even more like a brewery than normal.

    Stupid new hobbies steam rolling over old ones... ;)

    I did a batch of brown ale in April at a local AG u-brew to save money and have beer for the summer racing season. Once I realized how much fun the process was and what the result was in the end, my racing and other hobbies have taken a backseat to brewing. Now I have a full AG setup, bottling...

    My Sweet Deal of the Month

    Well, just before I was due to head off for a business trip for 2 weeks I had a present dropped in my lap. My brother's GF's Dad was visiting and mentioned he brought his old brewing equipment for me to use. I pretty much thought he had some carboys and misc equipment, but I was luckily...

    Won George Thorogood Tickets

    I just won some last minute George Thorogood tickets from a local radio station and I'm pretty happy. I only found out about the concert a week or two ago and no one I asked after that seemed that interested in going (or spending the $$$ I guess). Concerts tomorrow night and I'm pretty damn...

    Hello from Victoria BC!

    Hey All, I'm a new homebrewer and have been brewing for a month now and have completed 2x1gal AG batches and 1x5gal AG batch (and I'm doing one this weekend). I had been planning on trying homebrewing for years, but a trip to a local AG u-brew gave me the kick I needed. My original 1gal...
