$450 Never been used 40 gallon / 160 quart stainless kettle. This sucker is big. Too big for me! I'm going to stick to my keggles and buy a kayak. Was asking $550 + shipping from Louisville, KY. Local pickup preferred but I will ship on your dime. Now asking $425 (+ shipping if...

Is the Boston Lager a lot more pale than it used to be? I have a six pack here and it looks a lot different than I remember.

Mine is a mild w/ late Willamette additions.

One friend is dealing with some ****, and my other buddy who always came over for brew nights died last month this possum keeps hanging around and keeping me company . Hoppossum?

How did this term come about? Ain't nothin' dry about it!

This is GOOD STUFF!

Ran out of co2 and ladled beer? That's where I am now.

http://www.nytimes.com/2007/05/09/dining/09kool.html I make a bunch of these every summer. We have a batch of grape in the fridge, and on deck are tropical punch and cherry.

Has anyone ever taken a hop bath? It sounds relaxing. I'm going to take one for the team this week.

Usually I only blend my own beers, but the pipeline is empty and I'm trying to stretch my dollar. One part Red Hook ESB, one part Honkers Ale, one part PBR. It's actually pretty good. After the Red Hook and Goose Island run out, I still have a six pack of PBR for the weekend.

Just noticed them on HopsDirect. Has anyone tried these yet? Here are their vitals: Calypso Pellet Hop Alpha Acid 12.0% Dual Purpose Hop Pleasant, fruity aroma, with hints of pear and apple Typical Brewing Styles: Ales, Stouts and Barley Wines.

While watching Brewmasters a while ago, I noticed that their yeast girl (Does that sound weird in a thread about vibrators? Let's go with lab lady) was testing / propagating yeast in a flask similar to the ones many of us build starters in. But rather than using a stir plate, the vessel...

Cheap plastic hydrometers - Someone could make a killing on them! I finally bought a refractometer, my hydrometers had an average life of less than two months. Thin stainless steel liner for fermenter buckets It wouldn't even have to be strong (read: thick and expensive) enough to support...

http://www.austinhomebrew.com/index.php?cPath=178_33_82_89 I have a couple that I ordered last month. The quality is high and the price is low. Scroll down on that page, they're towards the bottom.

There are only a few things I know to look for here, the rest is Greek to me. From what I can tell (and tasting our water confirms this), Louisville water is pretty good. Any thoughts are appreciated...

I'm not set up to do multi-step mashes (direct fire mlt), and I want to use oats %15 of brain bill) in a pale beer. I'm planning on doing a protein rest with the oats before or during the beginning of the main mash. I'll throw them in a kettle on the stove at 125 for 20 minutes, then mix that...

I'm planning on using corn flakes (flaked corn) and oats in the mash, maple syrup (when to add this, the secondary?), coffee in the secondary and bacon as a "dry hop" in the secondary. I read about someone using bacon in the secondary recently. I think it was oven cooked and had the fat sliced...

It takes a looooooong time to get 13 gallons up to a boil. I finally wrapped aluminum foil around the burner after it stalled out around 170. Creeping up towards boiling temperatures now, after 90 minutes. For chilling... I'll be using a 25' IC, and then when the wort has cooled...

I had a Sorachi Ace brew (Brooklyn's single hop 750 series) earlier this year, and wasn't terribly impressed. It tasted earthy (in a bad way, like dirt), although I remained open minded enough to try in a brew. And I tasted the lemon note, which I liked a lot. So I figured maybe the beer I...
