Put me in, coach!

there's a great chart for home brewers up on DudaDiesel: http://www.dudadiesel.com/files/wortchart.pdf to answer your question directly, it depends on how fast your coolant is flowing, but the difference doesn't look to be that significant to me. in that chart you should also note the model...

I'm planning on doing the festival to get a wider variety of things to taste. Next thursday DFH will be at alewife with 16 beers on tap and I will definitely be there. Went to the Stone thing there last weekend and it was an awesome experience.

While you're here, don't miss Alewife (http://alewifebaltimore.com/) or Max's Taphouse. (http://www.maxs.com/) There's also the baltimore beer week coming up: http://www.bbweek.com/ My go-to store had been the wine source, but helped a friend move on Saturday and stopped in at Wells which...

might be able to take the kettle off your hands if you still have it. Let me talk to SWMBO about it.

Could anyone give some guidance on translating this recipe to extract? (i know, i know, but my apartment and budget at the moment make AG an impossibility.) My quick googling says that I should take your 8lbs of golden promise 2 row and multiply that by .6 to get the amount of DME. (4.8lbs)...

I used a large nylon grain bag in my last boil (something like this.) and it floated around until the hop particles clogged the holes in the bag and it took on enough wort above the trub cake to sink it. Still in primary, so we'll see how well it worked in a few weeks. I expect that it will...

Green Peppercorn Tripel

I'm hoping to make it; SWMBO has said yes. What all should I bring and can anyone summarize how this things usually go?

my excuse is new-brewer paranoia.

5 gallons of beautiful looking/smelling Petite Saison d'Ete from Northern Brewer: http://www.northernbrewer.com/brewing/recipe-kits/extract-kits/extract-ale-kits/petite-saison-d-ete-extract-kit.html

Thanks all, that's good to hear. I'm not totally sure how my wife set it up when she ran the canning jars + equipment, but when I walked by and looked the time indicator said "99+" and continued to do so for a long time. We've been working the JetDry out of our system over the last few...

I'm having a bottling day tomorrow after work with some friends and have a logistical question. We used the sanitizing cycle of our dishwasher on some jars for peach/habanero jam last weekend for the first time so I now know that it takes about 2 hours. In order to reduce the time spent...

thanks guys, a pot it is! I'll definitely check out home depot for that fryer combo. Maybe I'll find a way to make the remainder stretch into an immersion chiller and second carboy or bucket.

I came into about 120-150$ to spend on anything I want related to brewing. (did a job and have been forbidden to put the money towards anything in our tight budget by SWMBO... I've got no issues with that! :mug:) What I've got so far is the better basic starter kit from Northern Brewer w/ the...

323 :mug:

amazing. did you happen to have one lying around or what?

love the pictures, thanks for sharing your experience.:ban:

I'm in Baltimore proper. I can probably make it out to that brew day, but should warn you that I'm totally new at this. :) By September I'll hopefully have a 2 brew days of my own under my belt. (unless I can talk SWMBO into another primary and some more bottles... in which case I'll have...

Awesome, this is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you! The blog pack I had been involved with previously was for Eve Online: http://www.crazykinux.com/2009/05/eve-blog-banters.html
