It's that time of year! Started this thread a bit later than last year! My third year Brewers Gold is coming in. Too bad they're getting transplanted!

So I've looked around and can't find a specific answer to what I'm pondering. Last year our hop plants got quite a bad infestation. Tiny red/orange, white, yellow, and black insects, almost entirely on the undersides of the leaves. We tried conventional sprays but that didn't work. With the...

Hey everybody. I started the 2013 thread when I first saw my hops pop up last March. Well the first one broke ground yesterday! WOO!

It looks like there are a lot of threads about hops breaking ground so it seems time for a catch-all photo thread. The stubby one was transplanted the other day but seems to be doing just fine. The other looks really healthy and is really searching now.

I hope this hasn't already been discussed (did a search and didn't find anything) but Brewing TV is calling it quits. The last few months were a bit sad since Dawson and Keeler left but now Chip has abandoned his association with Northern Brewer and is starting a brewing/cooking/fermented-food...

So I went downstairs to get some aspirin and I heard a strange watery hissing sound. Thinking it was a supply hose to the washer I headed to the laundry closet and noticed the nearby bucket about to blow its lid off! A bucket containing 5 gallons of cascade blonde to which I added 6# frozen...

Hey all! Our apartment garden is really starting to take off, especially after taking care of the severe aphid problem. I thought it would be fun to have a thread to show off your edible and decorative garden plants! Bell peppers after unleashing the swarm What looks to be our first usable...

Seriously, I've been looking for an LED clock that is battery powered only or can switch between cable and battery. It seems this product does not exist anymore. Sure, there are clocks that take batteries... but it's a "Battery Backup" .... I'm am soooooooooooo f**king sick of seeing that...

Puns are the best and if you don't appreciate them you are a terrible person with an awful sense of humor.

As the title says, I just barely got two cornies and a 5# CO2 tank to fit in my keezer. I didn't have to force the second keg in but had to shimmy it slightly in order to get it to fit down along with the other one. My main concern is that it will cause problems when they are pressurized...

So unless HBT search is all wonky, there isn't any discussion about these commercials yet. Coors Light released (releasing? Not sure when they're coming out) aluminum and resealable pint cans. Actually not a terrible idea. However, if you've tried to watch anything on YouTube lately, their...

Hey everybody. I'm a big ol' geek and I love pretty much anything to do with space. So today most of North America, Europe, and Asia will be able to view the transit of Venus. This means that Venus will pass between Earth and the Sun so you can see Venus sillouetted against the sun. This is a...

I just came upon this invention from a long time homebrewer. Super cool automated two-tap kegerator using an Android tablet app, solenoids, and flow meters to serve various volumes of beer. Is this one of you guys? Frackin' genius! :rockin: (skip to ~3:10 if you don't care about the...

I've posted about this brew before but I felt that I should put it in the recipe database after I found out it won 1st Place in Category 23 and 2nd Place in "Best in Show" at the local Brew Basin Brew-Off competition this weekend. This is not a traditional Sahti. I've refrained from using...

I've been wanting to grow for a while but I happened upon a great deal for some Brewer's Gold rhizomes so it's time to get started! I live in a townhome style apartment with a patio where we've had success growing a couple veggies. In order I take care of space issues I'm going to be employing...

Frozen beer foam! (WARNING: Geekologie potentially NSFW due to language)

Hey all! SWMBO and I love to cook and we cook up all kinds of things with various skill levels and origins, from Indian Saar to Chicken/Andouille Gumbo with homemade roux. But often times we have a hard time coming up with stuff. We don't like to follow recipes but we used them as...

Oh, I'm not looking for any help. Nor am I concerned about my equipment and needing these concerns to be quelled. Just thought I'd share.

Does any have experience with plumbing repair? Last night, out of nowhere something started spraying water under the sink when I turned on the faucet. The below image shows it's part of the manifold that directs water to the separate spray nozzle. There appears to be a break where the left...

Pretty sweet 8-bit vidjama game themed beer by Tallgrass Brewing Co in Manhattan, Kansas. Per the brewery: Sounds pretty dang good to me. It makes me want to get a case of it and sit down to beat Bubble Bobble in one sitting....
