Hey all, I brewed a recipe last year from the Jan/Feb. BYO mag and it was good. I have a request to brew it again but I do not have the magazine anymore. It was one of the Quebec clones with Hibiscus flowers. Does anyone have this back issue? Sure would appreciate it if you could post the...

No, it's not that kind of boo-boo where I drank 15 bottles and then tried to jump through a flaming hoop on the highway, I think I screwed up. I made my batch and had it on the old yeast cake and it was doing really good. Took my readings a few days later and right down to 1.050 so I went to...

I kegged a beer three weeks ago and lightly rinsed the trub from the bottom of my 7 gallon carboy but made sure to leave the krausan ring on the side. Then I set it in my South Texas garage where it's over 100* in the daytime. Yesterday I put in one scoop of store brand Oxy and filled it with...

Twenty Two years ago I stood before God, friends and family and made a commitment to my girlfriend. The preacher man then said"I now pronounce you..." No looking back. She goes with me places on the motorcycle, helps me in the yard, and lets me brew beer. I got a keeper.

OK guys, I found a freezer and ready to make it into a fermentation chamber. I bought a Ranco to control the temps and wired it up by the guide on here. Question..it's not working. I think maybe I ordered the wrong one. I have a Ranco ETC-112000. Is it not the right one?

OK, here's my story. I bought the Austin IPA kit a week or two ago with the refractometer. Finally had a day to play so I got out my goodies and heated up mash water on the stove. Got it to 168* and started my mash with a TB. of 5.2 added. Checked the temp and I was right on the money at...

OK, there was a thread about who rides motorcycles a while back. I know there were some in Texas so I was wondering who was going to attend the Lone Star Rally? I'll be there Thursday by lunch and have to leave by lunch Saturday to get back to a local event I have to be at.
