    Monkish to Swap

    I have a few cans of the Monkish that was released last week that I can part with (Even More Props and Stunts - DDH w/Mosaic DIPA, 8.4% ABV). Looking for big flavored hard to find stouts. I have way too many IPA's right now and more coming and need to offload a few of these for things that...

    Need help - Inkbird Temp Controller

    So I’ll admit to having done absolutely zero research on this topic. I have a full size upright freezer and I have this Inkbird controller (pics below). I’m wondering if I can use this controller to turn my freezer into a beer fridge. If so, are there easy to interpret instructions somewhere...

    Reliable vendor for hops plants?

    I put some rhizomes in the ground this year and they don’t appear to be making any progress. To be fair, they didn’t look great when they went in the ground. Anyways, I was wondering if anyone knows of a vendor who is selling varieties of hop plants that are already growing in pots that could...

    Robobrew - why wouldn’t it work?

    so my biggest complaint with the Robobrew, only complaint, really, is that you can’t put a big grain bill in it. I feel like about 12-13 pounds is max... Or is it? Why couldn’t a guy just put the little black cap on the pipe that runs down the middle and load the grain all the way to the top...

    Old Rhizomes?

    I have a buddy who gave me some rhizomes. However, they felt kinda pithy. He said he had planned to pitch them in the garbage because he had some extras this year. I guess they’ve been in sealed plastic bags on his counter for a month. Will they grow? Should I try? What do you think? Some...

    Trillium - Peanut Butter PM Dawn

    Trillium has some Peanut Butter PM Dawn right now and I’d gladly trade for a 4-pack or send someone some money to have some shipped to me. Sounds like it’s going quick. Thanks!

    KBS for CBS?

    I know this is poorly timed since KBS just hit shelves; but, I have A LOT of it. A lot. I'd like to get my hands on some CBS if possible. Shoot me a message if you'd be willing to swap 2-4 of each for 2-4 of each. Thanks!

    Garden Grove, CA ==> Los Angeles, CA

    I just flew into LAX tonight and will be leaving for Seattle tomorrow. I have meetings in the morning and will have a short amount of time before heading back to LAX tomorrow and would like to hit up a good beer store to try to pick up a bunch of stuff I can’t get in Montana. Can anyone make a...

    HBT Iron Brewer Sign Up

    Okay, let's see if there's any interest in this. I'd like to see 10 folks enter it; but, I bet we could make it work with less than that. I'll cap it at 10, however, to keep shipping costs reasonable. I've shamelessly lifted the below from the excellent @dryboroughbrewing who shamelessly...

    HBT Iron Brew

    Anyone ever done anything like that on here? I see the beers of Christmas and various trading threads; but, has anyone done an iron brew type of competition on here?

    Question about fermenting in a bucket...

    So I used a bucket for the first time ever for a beer I brewed two weeks ago. Today I went to check on it and the top had popped off. I had a blowoff tube on it so I’m not really sure what happened; but, I doubt it was pressure build up. Regardless, I have absolutely no idea how long it’s...

    NEIPA’s - Seattle

    I live in a place where it’s nearly impossible to find NEIPA’s. I have a buddy who’s visiting Seattle this week and I’d like to have him bring me a few back. Can anyone make a suggestion on a good place in Seattle that might have a decent selection of canned NEIPA’s as well as a few of your...

    Questions about BIAB - Robobrew

    How are you guys sparging? I'm using Beersmith to determine my mash volume and then rinsing with enough water to get me to the pre-boil volume; but, I'm seeing my efficiency be pretty bad. I read that folks are using more water in the mash in order to keep that from happening. Can anyone...

    First NEIPA Question - Hops

    Back after a long break!

    I haven’t brewed in years and when I did it was a typical three vessel system. I just picked up a Robobrew this afternoon and plan to do a NEIPA tomorrow. Looking forward to bugging everyone again!

    Pumps!!

    2 pumps, or 3? I'm planning on running QD's everywhere, so is the main (only) difference that I'll have more work connecting/disconnecting hoses? Is there anything I can't do with 2 that I can do with 3? Also, I'm currently designing my eHERMS and wanted some pump reviews from people. I want...

    HERMS question...

    My plan is for a single tier eHERMS setup. On my brew stand, I'd like to have a middle tier for a 5 gallon SS pot that I'll use as a heat exchanger with an immersion chiller running through it. I'm going to pump my wort through the chiller and have the water in that pot temp controlled. How...
