    So who's brewing this weekend?

    Bottled 4 gallons of Saison this morning. Leaving the house in a minute to go get good water for the porter I'm brewing tonight. I'm gonna split it into two fermenters and use different yeast strains in each as an experiment.

    What's your occupation: Engineer or Non-Engineer

    Tube guitar amp technician. I've designed my own circuits, but I wouldn't dare call myself an engineer.

    Best place for a beer in Austin?

    Haven't tried any of the others in this thread, but Gingerman has been really enjoyable the two times I've gone and the selection is staggering.

    Coffee's effect on yeast.

    This question stumped the owner of my LHBS and I couldn't find anything useful doing a search. I was planning on doing a coffee stout and adding some brewed coffee to my secondary. I was planning on bottle conditioning this stout and I was wondering what effect the coffee will have on the...

    How much do you generally spend a month on brewing?

    I bought my first equipment/ingredients on Feb 26, and I've spent $298. I told myself I'm not going to buy anymore equipment until my cost/12oz bottle is less than $1.50. I'm keeping a spreadsheet of costs vs returns and I'm 3 or 4 more batches from hitting that goal.

    Sam's Choice Sparkling Cider

    I just finished bottling a 6G batch of this. I accidentally bought Wyeast 4632 dry mead instead of 4766 (someone put it in the cider yeast section at AHS) and the uncarbed bit I sampled today tasted fantastic. It fermented down to roughly .995 (I'm still having trouble getting my hydrometer to...

    What music do you listen to while brewing?

    Lately, I've been catching up on the archives of "The Best Show on WFMU" while doing any kitchen work (cooking/dishes/cleaning/brewing). It's very different from any other comedy radio show I've ever listened to.

    Texas seems underrepresented on this forum

    Saying Texas was underrepresented was my idea of a joke. I gotta remember that on the internet sarcasm is hard to read. Thanks for the kind welcome, everybody.

    Texas seems underrepresented on this forum

    Howdy, My name is Michael, I live in Lampasas, TX. I'll turn 24 next week and I work as a guitar amplifier technician. I met a couple of forum members face to face tonight in Falmike's garage, so I thought I'd introduce myself. This is such a wonderful resource. I've learned so much...

    twisting on old twist off caps

    In a week or so I'll be bottling my first brew (AHS American Wheat) and I'm still collecting enough to store it all. My step-dad has got a few dozen shiner bottles (twist offs) with the caps. He's been telling me I can just twist the old caps back onto the bottles. Is this effective? I...
