Each time I keg I mix up 2 liters (Canadian sorry) with 3ml. of Starsan and it's more than enough to do everything, have a spray bottle that I change out every time I have a fresh mix, never had a problem, I like to clean everything right when I'm done using it IMO that helps the most. Doing...

There's an app to stir your mashtun!!!

Kegging will take your consumption to a whole new level :D Better get brewing!!!

Even being from Canada, this situation is real no matter where. President Obama was right, it could have been any school any town, to the folks of Newport my thoughts are with you. In life we expect or prepare to bury a parent, a spouse, or a sibling, never do we expect to bury our children...

Yea right, I don't usually cross the border to shop, I should because I'm like five minutes away from it, but swmbo, daughter and I are in Kauai right now and can't believe the prices of some stuff compared to home. The only problem is I get lost with all the different brands and naming of...

Sorry man, tried to take a pic but iPad won't let me attach it.

Finally got a 12 pack for $12.88 this afternoon, had to fly to Kauai for it though. Tomorrow going to try out some other brews, was told to give Kona a try, I believe it's out of Maui, till then time to enjoy the sun and laugh at the weather I left behind.

WOW made one of these up few weeks ago, finally got to use it tonight, what a great tool, unbelievably easy. Best part is it doesn't squirt you with hot water while sanitizing.

So I've been making extract recipes from my LHBS store with a plastic primary fermentation bucket, and recently built myself a keg setup, after fermenting for two weeks I would rack to my kegs and worth the life of me could never figure out why I always had so much leftover, so today I finally...

Bottled a 5 gallon batch, found a pot of primimg sugar on the stove next morning, apparently it takes quite a few while waiting for it to cool and sanitize everything.

STC-1000 straight out of Hong Kong

Not one but two stir bars, just in case one ends up getting fermented.

I started off thinking I was going to do all grain straight out of the gate, studied up on what I would need, where to get it, what I could build, built my plan so to speak. Patience collapsed and I did an extract batch, turned out great, but even from doing that first batch I changed my mind on...

Hahahahahahahaha

Same as you arclight, I'm a mechanic by trade and started at a very young age at that and love tinkering, coming up with new ways of making things work better or how they work at that, many of times I've torn apart a brand new item to my moms dismay just to see how it works, took a few years for...

Wife just asked me why I've stuck to and been so passionate about this home brewing hobby.... So I said "Duh, this one not only involves consuming beer, it produces it as well, the other ones only involved consuming." She shook her head and went to bed as I was racking to a secondary.

As everyone knows there is definetly some sitting time while brewing, what are some of your favorite devices to park you rear in during that long (and relaxing) boil????

I thought I hated it before but now I wait till the family goes to bed, slip out to the garage get the music going pull up a stool and get it done, gets relaxing.

:mad:

Was wondering what people are paying for Sierra Nevada Pale Ale in the States, with the savings of homebrewing I like to buy the odd six pack here in Canada paying 15 bucks for them. Where and how much do you pay????????
