Planning my electric build and just curious if there i any safety issue using the 50amp GFCI breaker from the spa panel on something i may only be pulling ~25 or 30 amps out of. I imagine most the time i'll be using 1 element at a time, but would like the expandability in the future but...

The in-laws loved the past couple turkeys i have smoked for family get-togethers and are requesting a cut of pork that is best served sliced. Naturally a pork loin came to mind. Do they smoke well? I'm worried about the lack of fat and it becoming dry. Any other recommendations? Rubs...

3rd Year Cascade plant, but first year with cones due to various issues. However, i am almost ready to harvest and the cones have no apparent aroma. I rub them with my hands and still, nothing? Is this normal?

Smoking a bird for thanksgiving this year. Plan on brining, most likely using Alton Browns recipe. Will be smoking with Apple wood, and possibly a bit of Hickory. Should i use a rub also? Got any good turkey rub recipes?

The wife and I are in the beginning stages of buying a home as we want to get one in time to take advantage of the $8000 first time home buyer tax incentive. We are trying to find a good real estate agent for homes near Decatur, GA and was curious if anyone knew of a good website that has...

Brick Store Pub in Decatur, GA just posted on twitter of receiving new disposable sanke's. Apparently you just crush them and recycle them so their is no deposit on them. Seems pretty nice! New Disposable kegs just arrived! on Twitpic Not sure if that picture will work, but it's from...

So i'm thinking of entering a few beers, merely to get the feedback of expert beer judges. All of the competitions say that all entries must be in an unmarked bottle. Does that mean i can't use any bottle that has distinguishing marks in the glass. Such as Sam Adams bottles as they have...

How do i know what size corks to use for bottling a wine? I'm just reusing an assortment of wine bottles i'v scrounged up over the last few months, so not many will be the same bottle. Is there a size that will fit most bottles?

I have been wanting to clone the Terrapin India Style Brown Ale and i took information from their website to try to come up with something that would be close. They have pretty good info as to grains, hops, ibus, but no proportions. How does this look, particularly the grain bill. I'v never...

At the Atlanta Brewing Company, my wife and I went for the "tour" and tasting tonight for some good cheap beers before dinner. We were able to basically wonder around the premises and they have a Sabco Brew Magic system in there. Around it they have Ale Pails, carboys, an IC, propane tanks...

I just ordered a Barley Crusher with my Christmas money and am looking for a good source for bulk grain. Is there a recommended place other than doing a group bulk order? Shipping from any major online retailers kills any deal i could find. Or is it time for a bulk order for the...

I was in the bathroom waiting for time to pass, so i picked up my wife's hand cream and read the ingredients. About halfway down the list i stumbled upon Humulus Lupulus(Hop) Extract. If it matters it smells like "Country Apple". I picked up several other hand creams she had and none of...

Just curious if anyone has brewed using a large amount of Biscuit Malt. I know it needs to be mashed with a base grain and websites say to use it at about 15% of grain bill. But... with all the experimental people around here i was curious if it would work out at about 50% Biscuit 50% 2-row...

Yippie! Only in 22oz bombers... but still... Yippie!

I ordered a couple of custom kits from AHBS last week and got my order and my Rye Pale Ale came in with 1.5lbs of Carapils, when i was really looking for 0.5 lbs... And i used their custom recipe feature so it's already mixed in with my other grains so i'm just going to have to brew it...

Was in my local Firehouse Sub's yesterday here in Knoxville, TN and they have some of their "pickle buckets" sitting out that they will give you for a $2.00 donation to some charity. They are food grade, come with lids, and the ones i saw showed no signs of odor. $2.00 seems like a good...
