+1 I float a keg in 1.5 weeks though...

CB, I have to say, though it's unfortunate, you might have gotten a bad one. Either that or you can detect things that I can't. The carbonation issue is accurate. I like a milder carb lately, so I didn't charge it to style. I am about to put in an order from Austin Homebrew for another batch of...

Let me know when the exact date is and I might be able to go. I'm about 2.5 hour out but I think it would be awesome to see how others do it. I might be able to bring my gear aswell, to participate. -Drew

Thanks FSR402, I posted the recipe for the Haus under the bleeding 'naner. If you want the BS file for either or both, just PM me and I'll be happy to help you out. Thank you very much for you reviews, I can't tell you how much I appreciate the input of fellow HBTers. -Drew

Seeing how this thread is over a year old, I don't feel bad about hijacking it. Also I felt that is would be best to keep the information on this strain altogether rather than starting a new topic. Made a somewhat altered BM "Helles Bells" yesterday. Used Wyeast 1007. Smacked the pack on my...

Sent out only two of my brews to each of my swappers. After seeing the lists from other people, I feel somewhat inadequate. I wish I could keep it around long enough to have a selection to choose from, and believe me, I brew a lot. Also, I feel kinda bad about just sending pales. Someone told me...

I think what he's saying is let the wort sit in the fermentor for an hour after pitching to let the break/hop material fall out, then pull the dump valve.

Drew is a very good name...

I just finished listening to a Basic Brewing podcast and heard something interesting. Maybe you can help clarify this for me. The show was a basic one on beginning homebrewing with Andy Sparks. (I have been listening to them in reverse order for some reason and found myself somewhere...

Doesn't 1337= leet? Coincedence?

In the industry, they call that a 1/6 BBL.

There should be nothing in the sides except insulation. I, personally, went through the door with mine (not same model.) I have a friend that has done half a dozen in the past that way and has never had a problem.

I figured out why everyone likes this crap. To paraphrase James Spencer from BBR, "It's a canoe beer...........It's f*ckin' close to water!" There is nothing to it. This way you don't have to think about what you are drinking or even enjoy it. You just put it down. I guess my buddies just...

I've been going up north intermittenly to train in a new position at our sister company. I'm really only learning so that I can cover for this dude when he goes on vacation. Well, today the boss goes "Do you drink beer?" My answer was does the Pope **** in the woods?! (BL ref.) So he says to...

Obsess about the next step and pace around my kitchen watching the pot like a hawk. I guess you could say I'm still new.

You. Have. No. Idea, my friend. I started this week of with the worst case of the Mondays ever. The thing that helps me through my day is simply not caring. It sounds stupid and juvenille, but I find that if you don't put alot of yourself into a job you hate, it won't follow you home. I used...

I am having the same problem. I think it is a result of the force carbing. When you do the shake method, it is nearly impossible to get a handle on the carbonation level. I jacked my regulator up to 30psi and shook the keg for 2 minutes every hour for 3 hours. Then left it at that pressure...
