Yeah. They are in Yakima. Great place to shop. They sell out quick of the big name hops. So if you want to buy bulk of the hard to find stuff, check out hopsshack. Sounds like you have everything else figured out! Happy Brewing!

I buy from hops direct or from hopsshack. Both very good service. Just make sure you vacuum package and freeze your hops. I break mine down to 1oz packages for half the pound. Then I package the rest in a big bag (in case a recipe calls for odd amounts). You will save a lot of money this way...

Such a vigorous fermentation I had to duct tape the stopper down!

Brewing an amber ale tomorrow with the wife. Should be a relaxing morning while the kids are at school.

This is my setup. Cost about $0.45 for the tee. Works great. Before this I used a collander for my sparging.

I just used 3/4 id pvc pipe. I drilled the holes with the smallest drill bit I had. I also just press fit everything for ease of cleaning. Works great. Im a slow sparger so it takes me about 30 minutes. If I wanted to push it I could get it done in about 3 minutes.

Ok. Then ill go with 2. Im anticipating this og to be around 1.080

They are 3 half filled big mason jars. Washed very well. I would say there's no trub in there either. Ill tell her to go for it.

Im out of town for the next month, and my wife will be brewing an IIPA tomorrow and we have 3 jars of yeast that I washed a week ago. We don't have any dme or anything like that to make a starter. So my question is, can she just dump the jars of yeast in the fermenter and shake it up and call it...

Instructed the wife on how to fire up the new burner. She will be brewing our iipa tomorrow so it will be ready for when I get back from this month long trip.

I transferred my blonde onto 4 lbs of frozen blueberries then harvested and washed the yeast. My first time harvesting and washing yeast and it was surprisingly easy. Got enough for 3 batches.

Checked on the pale ale, chipotle blonde and blonde ales fermenting away. Tasted the amber that I kegged yesterday. Its very good. Gotta love force carbonation. Perfect carbonation after 18 hours

Pale ale that was just brewed today, chipotle blonde that was transferred to secondary today, and a blonde which will be a blueberry blonde starting tomorrow

Kegged my amber ale, transferred my chipotle blonde to secondary with 4 more chipotle peppers, brewed an american pale ale that is a slight variation from my haus pale ale. Oh yeah, today was the break in of my homemade tier system, and new blichman burner. That burner is amazing! I saved...

+1 for Bio Gnome Great idea

Yes, I run it right off the keg.

Recovering from drinking homebrew last night. Yesterday my blichman burner arrived and I put it together and tested it. Works amazing. Brewing a pale ale tomorrow and im kegging an amber that has been conditioning. Ill most likely also clean and de-label some bottles. Busy weekend

Picked up grain for my haus pale ale at rebel Brewer, and some yeast nutrient. My blichman burner should arrive tomorrow

I run oxyclean through it and let it sit for a while. Then I run starsan through it while I sanitize my keg. I let it sit in the line until I attach the keg with beer. Seems to work well for me.

Check out Rebel Brewer at rebelbrewer.com. they are awesome and they have the best grain selection anywhere. Plus with them being out of Nashville Tennessee you will get your order pretty quick.
