Hey Guys, Haven't posted around in a while, just been brewing and lurking. Me and a few guys from work just bought some stuff i figured yall'd be interested in. Collier and McKeel distillery in Nashville is selling their used 5 gallon oak barrels. If yall have seen this already, just disregard...

I've got my BSME from Tennessee Technological University back in '07. I think us engineering types just like to tinker with everything, so this hobby gives us so many variables to mess with. Like a little kid put in front of a huge switchboard full of buttons and told to go wild and push...

vertical definitely. Your surface to air ratio in the neck of a bottle is much smaller than when it's laying on it's side. +1 to the corked bottles drying out if stored vertical. It will turn wine into vinegar very quickly if stored vertically.

Sure can. Won't be a problem at all.

payments sent! i had 2 bags of cm 2 row and 1 bag of maris otter. Where are we meeting to pick these up?

Being in Nashville every day, its surprising to hear people talk about beers they can't get at home that you can get here. I am always complaining about beers i cant get in Tennessee. I look forward to business trips to Ohio solely for the purpose that there are a lot of beers i cant get here...

When i started out on my journey into good beer, i was all malt. The darker, thicker, and maltier, the better. I may not necessarily like all beers now, but i appreciate them all for what they are. I love ipa's and barleywines both. I'm not a big fan of the esters in alot of the belgians, but...

I'm in for 1 bag of Bairds Maris Otter BD-MOPA, and 1 bag Canada Malting Company 2 row CM-2ROW. A friend of mine is in for a bag of CM-2ROW as well.

I was just coming on here to post this groupon, but looks like i was beat to it. What an awesome deal. I buy everything from Rebel, because they have better prices, but you can't beat 50% off. I work very near All Seasons, and used to shop there before i found Rebel, but they are nice and...

Hey J-Malone As a fellow Tennessean, I've checked all of my local recycling places as well. They are correct about not being able to have them. It is a felony for them to accept ANY part of a keg, even if it is cut up, or even the spear if they can recognize it. It's also a felony here to...

Tennessee has a sales tax on all goods sold in the state in a brick and mortar store, or even online if the company has a brick and mortar store within state boundaries. The one good thing that comes from that is we have no state income tax.

I have to agree about the Mickey's. I had a buddy that bought it thinking it was an Irish ale because of the name, then he pours me one and surprises me with it. It was a "fine" example of cold piss after a night of heavy drinking. I have to give a 4th vote to SA cherry wheat, and a 2nd to the...

i've got a few large marbles (1" od) that weigh a hop bag down nicely. I dry hop in a better bottle with the larger mouth on it, so there is no chance of it getting stuck. I have a work colleague that brews as well, and he used a marble in his glass carboy, and after the hops settled, it made a...

I agree about the any beer, any time of the year! It just gets hard to come in after working in the yard, especially in the summer heat of 103 F with 90% humidity, and pop open a RIS as a thirst quencher. I've never brewed a kolsch, saison, or cream style. How would you describe the saison...

I've got 12 Belgian blonds left from a previous batch, with another 5 gallons in the secondary. I've got 1/2 a batch of oatmeal stouts left, and a freshly bottled batch of ESB that will be fully conditioned on the 24th. I haven't made an IPA in a long time, and the last batch was a Ruination...

I'm looking at my empty primary, and thinking ahead to the upcoming spring. I've got enough in the supply line to last me until then, but I'm thinking of what would be a good crisp, refreshing, "welcome to spring" beer. I was thinking something along the lines of EdWort's Bee cave brewery...

i love the guys at Rebel. Those guys are my LHBS, so there isn't shipping on anything I buy, so that makes things cheaper already. Tyler up there sent me an email the other day when i asked about bulk grain buying, he gave me the fiftypoundsack website. He said that a little has to be added to...

2011 Goals 1) Build the 3 tier brew tree I've had designed for a while 2) Upgrade to a keggle to start 10 gallon batches 3) Build a fermentation chamber 4) Brew the beer for my wedding reception at the end of June.

being from Dayton, any brew pubs you can recommend for when i'm up there? I'd hate to either get stuck drinking good beer in the hotel room all week, or being forced to drink BMC all week if i feel like getting out.

i helped by buddy build his copper manifold in a square cooler, identical to mine. His had so much more left behind than mine did, and we finally figured out what it was. he didn't teflon tape his threads into the bulkhead fitting, and wasn't getting a good air tight seal. once the wort drained...
