    Specialty IPA: Rye IPA Tearjerker double Rye IPA

    Based on Denny Coons Rye IPA with a few modifications. I named it tearjerker because I almost cried when my kettle stopped draining from the hops clogging the strainer on the drain tube. I ended up using a sanitized kitchen strainer and scooping out a bunch of hops until I could get it to move...

    Removing scratches from fermenter/bottling buckets?

    Sorry if this is a really dumb question, but I have searched and searched to no avail. The only answer I ever read is that the bucket should be replaced if it has scratches. However, can they be sanded lightly with, say 2000 grit, followed by some buffing with a plastic polish to restore the...
