    Hello, lurker with a first post - Just bottled my first brew

    trying to save every last bit of beer out of a bucket siphoning can be a hassle, depending on the type of yeast used and how hard the yeast/trub is. I chalk it up to part of the process and consider it byproduct. siphoning is fine but with using buckets might be best to drill a hole and put a...

    Even burnt the bread; I will honestly say one of the better restaurant burgers recently was from a five guys place.

    DIY Kettle Hop Screen

    I understand that whirlpooling has a great effect on dropping out proteins and hop matter, i myself have not tried it yet and have been using a nylon bag for a while. the terrors of plugging the plate chiller run deep and is not a fun ordeal. plus, an extra 15-30 minutes to brew day for a...

    Why Sear-First is Better Than Reverse-Sear for Steak

    i would say charcoal/gas grill sear first and then indirect heat. pellet grill reverse sear. i reverse sear on the pellet grill as i don't own a charcoal grill and my table top gas grill just doesn't get hot enough. remove the steaks and foil then open the plate and turn pellet grill to 400...

    outdoor brewing

    I never understood why the smells of brewing beer being so offensive to some. Maybe I was de-sensitized growing up in the 80s with my mom doing in house perms and many visits to a dairy farm of childhood friend. I have a designated spot in the basement now with ventilation and I am loving it...

    Peanut Butter

    I agree with this. If I wanted peanut butter flavored stout or porter I would just pair the beer with a peanut butter sandwich, best of both worlds delicious beer and nutritious sandwich.

    Keg identification and sealing problems

    it was a big hassle when I restored a bunch of pinlock kegs from scrap yard. started taking them apart and noticed this poppet looks drastically different than the other ones. by then i had a pile of parts. I have not tried every post with the universal poppet, but vaguely remember there are...

    Keg identification and sealing problems

    i have one pin lock keg if i don't put the post with the keg upside down it will not seat properly. with pinlock there is a variety of poppets along with post design over the years of service. you could give a universal poppet a try they tend to have a longer spring but still depends if there...

    Looking for "Classic" West Coast IPA Recipe

    sounds like hop head disease to me. best way around this is to stop only drinking highly hopped beers. start off with a dark rich stout being bitter by roast (helps if you like black rich coffee but most hop heads like cream and sugar etc to mask the coffee bean). Then move on to something a...

    So who's brewing this weekend?

    Vienna ESB in the books. This particular Vienna is sourced and malted in ND. should be a good beer. maybe an all Vienna lager next, i don't have any traditional hops for it but i believe i have cluster; will need to ponder this one for a little bit.

    What happened to IPA?

    when the trend of double IPAs craze hit the market, I was like ok much a much more hoppy beer and the malt was still there but the abv was probably a little high, the market saying wait a minute i don't want to drink two beers and equal a six pack. the session ipa came along and i thought this...

    What did I cook this weekend.....

    My mom used to make cream chicken. it was a whole or couple chickens parted and browned then put in roaster and topped with cream. all the chicken fat and cream for gravy on mashed potatoes, was delicious.

    expired yeast?

    I assume most dates put on packages are in terms of known viability done by the manufacturer (this is what we are selling but after this date we can't confirm results would be adequate). I remember when liquid yeast used to come in clear plastic tubes you could clearly see difference in dead...
