My beers taste different day to day. It's me, not them.

I graduated in '02. Just drove around campus last weekend before the Sufjan show. Holy cow that university is a beast now.

Hey, I spent the best years of my 20's in Capen library at UB North for that privilege. ;) Right now, coworker who's office is next door to mine has been screaming at his speakerphone for the last hour. Dude, they can hear you, you're approximately 10" from the microphone.

uuuuggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhh

Move all hops except the 60 to flameout and add another 1/2oz if you got it. Delete Munich and add 1/2lb C40. Add at least another oz to dry hop.

How much hops do you use to dry hop vs. your batch size?

Safety first: Be super CAREFUL with the rest of that batch. Don't want to lose an eye. Second, when I bottle, I only add the priming sugar after I've transferred to the bottling bucket. I know, the whole swirling mixing thing doesn't happen then, but I've been burned by uneven carbonation by...

Definitely don't sweat trying to maintain the full batch volume during the boil. I brew all-grain and intentionally aim to over-boil at least a little bit. I always have an unopened jug of distilled water to top up in the fermenter if need be.

lager fermentations still look like the pic posted, fyi.

Just did a rendition of my own, minus any Munich because I HATE how Munich tastes with American hops. I used Magnum for 30 IBUs at 60min and then 15min hot whirlpool 1/1/1 oz. Simcoe/Amarillo/Centennial followed by 180F whirlpool for 5 minutes with same hops. Dry hopped with 2/1/1 oz...

No. Color doesn't separate out. You can (I do) perceive changes in body from cold-conditioning, but it's always for the better. Usually fuller mouthfeel from smaller CO2 bubbles, as there are less proteins and particulates for the gas to nucleate on.

No, it's the time that did it. I cold condition all of my beers, bottles stored cold with the keg. Your beer will thank you

That should be a bumper sticker.....

That will be the most foul thing I read today. *shudder* We have employees here that possess less than optimal aim at the toilet. By that I mean the urinal and the bowl. Disgusting. The cleaning people must think we're total pigs.

Run the Jewels 2.

Furreal. I just yelled at a dude for that. At my office, some toolbag took an entire stick of my butter. I used it on Monday to butter some toast and set it on my carton of eggs in the fridge. Yesterday, gone. Like nothing in the garbage either. Why go to the store when you can just steal...

Hoping some experienced keggers can help me out here. I've been given an old regulator. It holds pressure, no leaks, however the low pressure gauge is 100PSI full scale so the resolution is a little tricky when dialing in low pressures. I bought a Micromatic Model 624, 0-60PSI, 1/4 NPT right...

2.0, yes I do indeed, the reason I never upgraded.

OK. That will definitely be the most Australian thing I read today. :D

Exactly. It's ok though, his know-it-all, obnoxious personality makes him the target of all our practical jokes and pranks. Dude fell for "dollar on a string" and "quarter glued to the ground" in the same week. Like my man, you just got played with the dollar, aren't you suspicious of a...
