    bringing wine back to the states

    You and your bags will typically clear US Customs at the first port of entry. When you buy something duty free it doesn’t mean you will not pay duty on it when arriving in the US. It means you didn’t pay duty when you bought it. Customs will usually allow 2 to 3 liters per person of hard...

    My First IIPA

    I think this is a good start. As previously mentioned, the 2row is not needed for steeping. I would save a few bucks and replace the honey with cane sugar. I don’t think the delicate honey flavor/aroma will show in an IIPA. 134 ibu's are great but I would rerun those calculations. 4oz of...

    The Blue Rhino’s are just paintball tanks. I bought a paintball tank at dicks sporting goods. They fill them for $5. If you use plan to use one with your regulator you will need an adapter.

    Tips on Life and Volunteering

    I think the best way to get on with a brewery would be to go in person and talk to someone with authority to hire. Tell them about your passion for good beer, you homebrew experience and your willingness to work full-time/part-time, minimum wage or what ever they need. Take your resume and...

    Trying to hit an ABV with a known SG

    IPA's getting FG down

    Sugar will help to some extent. Just replace some of the gravity points from the malt with sugar. I use cane sugar exclusively(for priming too). A pound in IIPA's and some times a bit in IPA's if I really want them dry. Some other ideas for getting better attenuation Mash at a lower temp...

    Both the Super Agata and the Colonna capper/corker have interchangeable bells. The Colonna comes with both. You need to buy the 29mm for the Agata. The Colonna can cork Belgian bottles. It might be able to cork champagne bottles also. http://www.slobrewer.com/howto/corking-belgians/

    Big Bad Ass (a.k.a. Crazy IPA)

    For the first recipe lose the cara-pils. You will get plenty of body/foam from the pound of crystal. Hop schedule looks good. I might put the Magnum in at 60min. You could also easily add a few pounds of base grain and call this an Imperial IPA. For the second I would cut out at least a...
