Hope this is OK to post here, if not please feel free to remove it. On January 2nd Beer Guys Radio will debut on Atlanta's AM 920 from 1-2PM. It will be hosted by myself (Tim Dennis) and my friend Aaron Williams. Our tagline is Georgia Radio for Georgia Beer. We'll cover the craft beer and...

I personally think I'm critical of my own beers, if there's a hint of a flaw then I really notice it. I've shared beers with friends and told them straight up, this one is OK but not as good as it could be, or this beer is awful and tastes like soy sauce, proceed at your own risk. However...

http://www.sterilock.co.uk/ The guy that invented this contacted me on another forum and offered to send me one to try out. I got it in the mail yesterday and plan to use it on a secondary of some peach saison. Sounds like they are just gearing up for US distribution, he sent this to me from...

I saw a couple thread and re-oxygenating high gravity beers but nothing on this specifically. I brewed yesterday and pitched my yeast this morning, the starter wasn't ready to pitch last night. I forgot to oxygenate but had to head to work, I won't be home for 8 hours. The OG was 1.077 and...

I'm trying to fine-tune my brewing process and decided to recheck a few things, like deadspace on the MLT. I have a 48 quart rectangular cooler with a bazooka screen. Here's my issue / questions... If I leave the MLT flat while draining I lose a full gallon to deadspace. I have a wedge...

I've had Gumabllhead clone and really enjoyed it and want to try the real deal and would also like to get some Zombie Dust. I can offer up any GA distributed beers (other than WC Moo Hoo and CR Wake N Bake, sorry!) and a few cellared GA brews. I have... 2011 Sweetwater Festive Ale 2013...

I wasn't sure where to put this, hope this is the right forum. This is first hand information I just heard and I can't find ANYTHING about it online. Without saying too much about my source I will say this is someone who would know what's going on at the FDA. The word is that this is not...

Barrel and Barley in Woodstock (bottle/growler shop) is expanding to carry homebrew supplies! Zach and the crew at B&B are awesome and they have a great selection of bottles and growler fills. He's planned to expand into homebrewing since he opened and he's recently launched a campaign where...

Cool story here, one of my cigar/beer buddies, Dan Reeve, brewed a Resin clone and after some trading of messages via Twitter he did a swap with the guys at Sixpoint and they ended up featuring his beer on their website. The recipe was formulated in a discussion thread on another site but the...

I've had this for about a month and I want to get one that shows SG and not just Brix. Looking on the web I've found prices on the MA871 from $96.00 - $145.00. I'll sell it for $80.00 shipped or if you can pick it up in Woodstock, GA I'll sell it for $75.00. Also open to trade for a good...

I've searched and searched on this and info seems to be all over the place, I see gravity potentials from 1.028 to 1.035 and SRM from 200 to 400. I even emailed Crisp directly and was told, "Pale Chocolate Malt is not a product that we hold in stock I’m afraid."??? I'm trying to set this...

Hey guys, our cigar club is having a big event in October. Thought I'd share here for any of you in Atlanta or maybe headed this way. ------------------------------------------------------------------- BUY TICKETS HERE - https://www.eventbrite.com/event/8087314375 Cuban Pig Roast and...

I've added some new equipment recently and tomorrow will be my second brew on the new equipment. I missed number big time on the first brew so I ran some tests for boil-off and MLT deadspace and adjusted my profile in Beersmith. My MLT is a 48 qt cooler and I have a 15 gallon kettle, my...

I want to make a pale ale using mostly/totally Mosaic hops. I like the results of FWH for bitterness so I'd like to do that. However, when I do just 1 oz FWH with a 90 minute boil I get 55 IBU's, which I'd like to reduce. Range for the style is up to 40 IBU but I'd like to keep it a bit under...

When sampling my beers I'll get what I think is one flavor but then when I read some more I see that it could actually be something else. Like I may think I'm getting citrus notes from my hops but then read about astringency and not sure I can differentiate the two. Citrus - slightly sour and...

I found a few others on HBT and online but none matched up to the malt/hop bill listed on New Belgium's website. After a little tweaking the final target profile seems to match pretty closely. I'm still new to this so there may have been something I've overlooked. If anyone has any...

So I made this to use as a showerhead in my rectangular MLT cooler. I went over to a buddy's house last weekend (sleepyemt) and he had a round MLT with a rotating showerhead that was pretty cool. I did a bit of googling but didn't find anything to use for my rectangular setup. I'm sure I'm...

Not sure how many this might interest but figured I'd share with the GA group. If you're in Atlanta there's a herf tonight in Lawrenceville. If you don't know Old Boar or his Full Moon Herfs he has one every time there's a full moon on a Saturday, this will be the first one in over a year...

I found a few threads that discussed this but most of the discussions mentioned calculating the sugar content of the fermentables added to see how they affected ABV. Not sure if my thinking is correct in this, perhaps someone can verify whether or not this would work. Couldn't I measure OG...

Built a stir plate tonight and have a few issues with it. It works, but it doesn't seem to get up much speed and it also tosses the bar pretty easily. I have one of the bars with the raised band on it and I see on here that an o-ring on each end might help those. My questions... I'm...
