For those that haven't checked out the location, here's what it looks like. Definitely not residential area. That said, I don't think they would last long around here (Seattle area.) They want $6 a pint in a glass and $4 per pint in a growler. My local brewery sells pints for $4 (less during...

If you live in Seattle, here's your chance to go pro - http://www.washingtonbeerblog.com/help-wanted-seattle-brewery-hiring-brewer/ If you get the job, I expect a growler or two as a finders fee. Bob

I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned the largest cost of making beer... time. I started brewing over twenty years ago because good beer was difficult to find and expensive, but stopped after a couple of years because it just took too much time. I dug out my equipment last year when I...

Thanks for all the replies. I knew there was plenty of good food and beer in Portland. That's the problem, too many choices, and I would hate to miss the best ones. I'm astounded at the number of places owned by McMenamins. They even have a few up here in Seattle, but I'm hoping to sample...

I could use some advice from folks in the Portland area. I'm putting together a golf trip to Portland for later this month. I have the courses set, but could use suggestions on pubs for food and beer. We'll be staying in Newberg, and playing Langdon Farms, Stone Creek, Heron Lakes and The...

In my cooler, there are two ports in the cold tank, and four in the hot tank. One of the cold ports is used to dispense cold water and the other connects to one of the hot tank ports. That connection normally dispenses warm water. Of the other three hot ports, one dispenses hot water, one is...

Interesting. I took a different approach to put together a fermentation setup for a carboy using an office cooler. What I did, was re-plump the hot and cold water tanks and connect each of them to separate aquarium pumps. From the pumps the cold or hot water goes to copper coils that sit in a...

You could just return the blow off to the fermentation vessel as they do here - http://***********/stories/projects-and-equipment/article/indices/20-build-it-yourself/354-build-a-burton-union-system-projects

After lurking on this site for a while, I finally have something to add to the conversion. I've been putting together a fermentation setup for a carboy using an office cooler. What I did was re-plump the hot and cold water tanks and connnect each of them to separate aquarium pumps. From...
