Lobster, crab, shrimp, things like that. I'm allergic to shellfish, so if I'm gonna die anyway, I might as well enjoy.

I'm 27, but started about 3 years ago.

Different types of yeast can cause intense fermentation activity. From what I've read, dry yeasts tend to be quite aggressive. One thing that could help is having a little bit of extra head space in your primary. I almost always start out with a blow off tube until the krausen falls, just to...

Burping it should be fine. I'm sure someone on here has a much more scientific answer that will give more accurate results, but that's the method I usually use if I overcarb.

Like Yooper said, just gotta brew more. Maybe make your buddies help out with the cleaning and bottling. Hahaha. Welcome to the obsession. Looks like you're not too far from where I grew up. I spent a good part of my life in Hillsdale.

Pilsner would fit pretty well. You could definitely try a kolsch, as well. Cream of Three Crops seems to be popular, and could probably do well with some lagering. You could also try a saison. They ferment well in the heat, and you don't need to take up room in your freezer for them. And...

Generally whatever I happen to be wearing that day. Usually jeans and a tshirt. Kinda wanna dig out my lab coat now, though.

If they're still available at the end of the month, I'll see if I can convince SWMBO that we need to take a trip up there. I'm not holding my breath on either of those, though.

Playing guitar, ren faires, grilling, very basic wood and leather working, and getting into gardening soon.

I have a bunch of new brewing toys waiting for me when I get home from deployment (soon!). It's gonna be even better than Christmas.

Part of the fun of brewing is experimenting and trying out new things. It's good to get a feel for the basics, but if you feel like you have the basic concept down, I say go for it. Maybe try one of the easier experiments (the wheat and the DIPA should be fairly straight forward), and then...

Great view from our ship out in the middle of the Pacific. It's my first time seeing a lunar eclipse. It's quite beautiful.

Somewhere between 30-45 minutes, depending on how traffic is.

Someone mentioned the final gravity being something around 1.009, or so. I forget which link I read that in. I'm kinda curious about the taste of it, too. It could be quite interesting.

If I didn't have a baby on the way, I'd definitely take this off your hands.

Welcome to HBT. Lots of great discussion to be had on here. Lots of great and knowledgable people around, too.

I usually try a few. Keg, kegs, corny, cornelius, kegging, home brew, homebrew, home brewing, homebrewing, soda syrup container, soda syrup can, ball lock, pin lock. Sadly, people in my area seem to be holding on to them pretty tightly, for the most part. These guys usually have some...

Another thing to consider is that if it is still fermenting, it may drive out some of the aroma from the dry hopping. Definitely an easy fix, though. Other than that, I agree with the guys above me. Check the gravity again and see if it's still changing. And definitely give it a taste.
