Anyone listen to the BN? Some of us are getting together a nomination for Justin in the 2007 Brewers Association Beer Journalism Awards. Justin is onboard, and right now I have a poll up to choose the footage to send in. The original post on the BN forum that sparked things up and more...

So I've been fermenting a lager at 50F for over two weeks now. I pulled a hydrometer sample and it is down to 1.008 The weird thing is it seems to still have a kraeusen about 1/4 inch thick. It has had absolutely NO airlock activity, in fact a little negative pressure. Wanted to get a...

What did I Miss? Is the Sunday Show cancelled? Has something happened? I listen to the archives since I can never listen live, and I'll admit I listen to it while doing a ton of other things so maybe I completely missed something. What's going on? I haven't heard a Sunday Show in weeks!

Been mulling cans around in my head for quite some time now. Since the oscar blues tour on BB video actually. I know, a little mad, maybe I should call a shrink. :o Anyone ever had these thoughts before? I've been trying to research the can sealers and info is hard to come by, but every...

Well I searched around in the forum and seen a little bit about it. I am thinking of Blueberries in a wheat. Can't really brew right now but it is in the not too distant future, and the abundance of cheap blueberries at the fruit market has me thinking. I was thinking of the following...

Ok. This can be a touchy subject and obviously varies from State to State. Say someone has friends who love homebrewed beer. Say said friends would like to request certain beer from their friend the homebrewer. What do you think the legal implications would be of running a small site...

So i clean out a keg. I go to rack my batch of red ale from the secondary to the keg, and what do I see as I am moving it to the kitchen?? Two quarter size boueys of white mold. My first reaction of course was SON of........ But wait... is this a wild strain of lactobacillus? I wish my...

Unveils the mysteries of a sanke keg... http://www.physics.arizona.edu/~workman/homebrew/Sanke.html It's an idea, but that would still be a pain in the arse to clean! I like being able to shove my arm down in there and really clean my kegs out! That would make sense for doing pny kegs...

Have a question on buckets. I have a 6.5 usGAL for a primary. I used it, cleaned it. Went to use it for another batch and it smelled skunky. Is this guy OK to use again or will those skunky flavors be absorbed into my beer if I use it? Is this a common thing? I've simply been using carboys...

As I am sure I will hear many rants about water and flavorless beer, i really don't care. Nothing says sitting on the beach in 75-80degree weather like a nice corona. I love IPA as a mainstake in my diet, but the other day fiance ordered a corona. I tasted it and a rush of memories and a...

Just got done with a starter for a red ale tomorrow. Decided to sit down, have a beer, and entertain myself with some HBT reading. Why not make my first post. Have a nice dark pumpkin ale (.5 lb chocolate in the mix :p ) just about ready for turkey day! I unfortunately am currently...
