    Free bottles Henderson/Las Vegas area

    I've got a pretty big collection of bottles I want to get rid of. I recently picked up a few kegs and don't think I'll ever bottle again.

    My trip to the Sierra Nevada brewery

    I made a trip up to Chico Ca. to go to the Sierra Nevada brewery. I have never been to a large brewery before and Sierra Nevada has always made some of my favorite beers. This place was amazing.

So would a 1/2tsp of nutrient in the 2L and a 1/4tsp in the 1L be about the right amount? And do I...

    Working hard, or hardly working?

    Anyone else, pulling an all nighter in the work shop, finishing up some last minute gifts? I've got a few more things to make so I'm sure this won't be the last late night before Christmas. Put the finish on a desk top picture frame, and a cutting board tonight. Pretty happy with how they both...

    Transfering and bottling stand

    My buddy mentioned that he wanted to get a transferring/bottling stand a while ago so I threw this together for his birthday. Hopefully it'll work out for him. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. I figured out a few things I'd like to change when I make one for myself hahahaha. Only about 7...

    Advice on hop additions for aroma

    I'll be brewing the third test batch of an American Pale Ale recipe I've been working on this Saturday and would like some feedback on the hop additions. The recipe is pretty heavily influenced by Manny's Pale Ale a beer out of Seattle from Georgetown Brewery. I'd like to try and achieve close...
