I can't think of a good April Fool's day thing, so I'll go with a silly question that I'd actually like opinions on: If you underlet, do you still call it 'Doughing In'? :ban:

I miss @bracconiere . This April marks a year since he left us. I want to make a terrible brew of his to raise a glass to him. This isn't a full recipe, but it's what he was drinking around the time of his death and I believe he'd get a kick out of it being shared here and made by some of us...

Money is really tight and I haven't finished building my brew rig that is more accomodating to my disability and without getting into it, there are still obstacles that keep it too far off in time and I've been getting really restless to just brew again. There's a sale on the gen 4 Brewzilla...

I was gonna post a question, probably in the ‘kegging’ category, but I’ve already used my shoulders and arms just a bit today so my cognition is already suffering and I don’t know where to begin or end….I’ve just had a marvellous stout. :P There’s a 50L sanke full of cider sitting out in my van...

This would be a pefect day to brew if my gear weren't in an incomplete disarray and I had ingredients. Let me vicariously brew by seeing some pics of what you're working on for beer today. Thanks in advance! ;)

If you’re experienced in beer lines and just want to switch to 3mm ID EVABarrier and just want confirmation that it works, the answer is; Yes. If you’re new to this, but a competent DIY’er and just want to see the steps, you can skip the disclaimer, but if anything is missing or unclear in my...

I used to grok these techincal nuances, but brain damage took a lot of that away. Owing to a limited working-memory span I have to deal with smaller datasets, preferably those immediately pertinent to what's at hand, so in designing my brew-rig I chose to make discrete controllers for each...

Something I didn't give a lot of thought to, ...I simply implemeted it and haven't had any noticable issues. I have brain/spine/CNS damage and brewdays are hell, so to eleiminate having to do so much being vertical and using anything attached to my spine, (plus; having an issue with temp...

@WesBrew 's thread; In-line solution to Prevent CO2 bottle leak down ? got me thinking about my next planned upgrade...my problem is that owing to brain-damage I've lost a massive amount of knowledge I grew up with, especially anything to do with numbers or comparative measures. My next planned...

Had a few drinks and feeling nostalgic... Prior to my injury, Halloween was my favourite night of the year. I used to decorate such that folk would come and take pictures. Kids loved my house. My GF and I went to great lengths to make it memorable, as we both love the day and love to see kids...

Title says most of it. Since being injured in 2014, just being vertical has consequences, the worst coming from using my neck, shoulders or spine at all. I'm just venting, but hey...maybe I can be constructive at the same time? I'm on hiatus from brewing my own at this time while I build my...

We’ve all seen stained hoses, but hey; ..”maybe that’s just a film?”.. Our most prized silicone hoses and gaskets often advertise as being ‘Platinum cured” and that’s a good thing because it makes for a less-porous surface. The key word in that is “Less”…Not ‘Non-‘. While this example may not...

Since I'm tagging @Bobby_M in this, Let me say to you Bobby; I love your products and if it weren't for living in Canada I'd do all my equipment shopping from your site. This is one of those thoughts that may after the fact be one of those "Why'd nobody do this before?!" (or it may not, let's...

Am I the only one who is put off and very annoyed at 'Beer Floats'? I first saw those seemingly pointless handmade and overpriced pieces of plank with holes called 'beer flight' at craft shows and when told what it was, I just assumed it was for the mainstream 'Pub Crawl' folk that I always...

So... About 30 years ago, my crowd was a major contributor to one of my favourite local bars being given an outdoor Guinness sign for being the highest per-capita seller of Guinness in Canada. Most of us who could afford it bought Guinness, but hey...we like variety and especially like less...

I have three of those 1.6G cornys that I've been using a while with the original o-rings. I was just cleaning them when I found this deposit left from a deteriorating o-ring: I really do love these kegs, but I'm swapping out the o-rings now! @odie ..I'm tagging you here because I know you...

However, if you want to post: Stay signed out, and fill out the reply or post or whatever, and hit the post button and then sign in when prompted...Note: while 'likes' seem to work, trying to include a pic or gif will not work, so text only. I suspect an overwhelming amount of new brewers have...

Background: My Father-In-Law is turning 91. A couple years ago, my GF's parents moved from their lakefront house to a condo, bowing to the reality of age and having to 'slow-down'. Despite being 90, this is a guy who doesn't slow down easily and I can totally relate to the no longer being...

I switched from glass carboys to Fermonsters for easier handling and options, and I also had interest in using Sankey kegs as fermentors for 12G batches that I want to leave longer.... Of course Oxygen-free transfers come into it, so I spent a lot of time reading the Fermonster thread (Turning...

I finally got a properly sized 3rd Vessel to complete my 'accesible' 3V brew system and I thought how great it would be to see pics of others systems that have incorporated a tilting base of some kind for cleaning out the mash tun. Being disabled, I can't hoist a BIAB bag and the hunching over...
