    Trellis Designs?

    So you all have me slightly confused. I have 4 plants planted 3-4 feet on center. For the past 2 years i have grown them on a horizontal system that is like 5 feet tall. They grow like they are being fed meth. I have never trimmed any vines back. Each plant grows about 20-30 vines and they all...

    Jute or Sisal twine experience

    I have use sisal twine in a horizontal trellice type system and have had no problems. However at the end of the year the twine has weakened a good bit. I dont believe it could take tall vertical runs covered in the hop vines. If it is cheap why not twist 2 strands or braid 3 strands?

    Conical fermentors, specifically the blichman ones.

    Does any one own one? I am thinking about getting a 7 gallon. Is it worth the money? Does it save time / frustration? What is the differance between the triclamp fittings and the standard fittings?

    A good problem to have

    How do you etch at home? I would assume you wax the glass then remove the wax in the area to be etched. What acid do you use and how did you learn to do it? Tell us more.!!

    Milwaukee Craigslist Find

    It would be graet for use at the station house! She would never know. Come on you know you want to start a firehouse brew club. Milwaukee proably has rules against that though.

    Carbonation Oddity

    Im my experiance homebrew always benifits from some age. I know you want to drink it but you will really be suprised what a month of aging will do! I would also invert all of your aging bottles a couple of times to re suspend the yeast.

    A poor man who needs internet access.

    What do you think is the best "deal" for broad band access? Cable broadband through comcast is 30 dollars for 6 months then 55 or so dollars each month after at around 4Mbps. DSL pisses me off because it is so slow, i have it at work. What would you guys and gals do? How much do you all pay...

    Swing top ceramic tops

    You could try filling in the chips with an epoxy product like JB Weld. it would look a little funny but it would seal properly once again.
