    Had my first clogged dip tube...

    yep, just the standard, clamp, tighten, spin, tighten, spin, repeat tube cutter. it took a little longer than you would think, since it is stainless steel, but it worked.

    Had my first clogged dip tube...

    I just cut a 1/4" off a dip tube about 2 weeks ago. Have not seen any ill effects yet. I'm assuming there will be a pint or less left in the bottom of the keg compared to a full length dip tube. Before I cut it, the tap had clogged 3 times - no clogs since cutting it.

    kegs at room temperature

    your plan will work fine. just follow your normal kegging process, hit it with CO2, purge a couple times and stick it someplace cool. As you say, it won't carb while waiting, but as soon as you swap it you can follow your normal carbonation process (set and forget, force/shake, high pressure...

    I don't even try names after learning how Featheringstonehaugh is pronounced. I just stick with a 'Hey you' until someone tells me how to pronounce their name and even then they will likely still get a 'hey you'.

    QOTD: Lobster tail (or other surf & turf option) count? If not, then creamed spinach. Wife doesn't like the creamed spinach, so I rarely make it at home. Might just make it tonight as steak is on the menu tonight.

    Result: Cocky Brewer Calculations are for wimps, you wing it and your beer always comes out awesome, and you do say so yourself (online, in bars, and on the T shirts you've had made). 'Instinct brewing' is the way forward and you've already trademarked that name for your new brewery. Your...

    QOTD: Centennial and Cascade - mainly because they are what i have growing in my back yard. Neighbor usually gives me some Nugget of his plants, so 75% of my beers have those 3 in them. If my Chinook doesn't produce more than a handful of cones this year (3rd year plant) it's getting...

    I'm up for a DuffMan food tour, but I need to convince SWMBO that a trip to Philly is something we should do. Maybe I can work the 'the kids should see it, it's really educational' angle on her.

    A would have a tough time picking a go-to beer. Style would be either IPA or IIPA, but I don't find myself buying the same beer over and over. If I had to choose one, I'd probably go with Odell Myrcenary.

    My oldest, who will be 8 later this month, got so excited after walking about 3 steps into mommy's arms, he puked all over her. Wasn't sick, just really happy and puke all over mom. Wish I would have gotten a picture of it.

    we are moving into debate territory here, so my final comment on it is this: If it's your water, then fix my roof when YOUR (federal government or whoever owns the rights) water damages MY property (hail) and get your snow off my driveway or i'll charge you a storage fee. :D

    You can always tell the Colorado natives from the transplants. 3 days of cloudy weather and they are about to slit their wrists. As a transplant, I just laugh. St Louis is cloudy from Oct through Feb, with an occasional day or two of sun. The view out my office window is crap. The view...

    If you have time, might be worth a trip to autozone / pep boys / whatever auto parts store they have to replace the tail light yourself. Canadian bush = tundra ? ( that's the clean version, politically incorrect version would involve the Canadian national animal and Frank Drebin).

    Hey Amy, before you decide to move, might want to look at housing prices vs TX. :) I say we just crash at @iijakii new place by the river. House warming party, everyone bring DEM. Another saison, I'll be sad to see this keg die. Good thing I got another saison fermenting now. d. .
