I used what look like the exact same yeast balls on my first batch. It came out good, but my other ones (using different yeast balls) have been better. Just like you say, a little sulfury/hot compared to the others.

Yah it just looks somewhat oily more than anything...the photo does kind of make it look worse than it probably is. SG is at 1.014, and OG was 1.051 which puts it pretty close to FG (~72% attenuation I think). Hydro sample tasted great BTW. Sent from my Nexus 4 using Home Brew mobile app

Hmm interesting. Its still fairly early (under two weeks) which is why I thought it might just be fallen krausen/poor flocculation. Normally I wouldn't sweat it and leave it but I was hoping to turn this beer around quick is all and I was thinking of cold crashing. Sent from my Nexus 4 using...

Not so much a "is my beer infected" post. Just wondering, is this typically what a beer looks like with low flocculating yeast? I used Windsor ale yeast for this brown ale. Sent from my Nexus 4 using Home Brew mobile app

This.

Donating blood is an awesome cause. I have donated for about 6 years, and work with a volunteer group on campus (i'm a student). Anyone on the stem cell and marrow network too? It's pretty neato too.

Seasons greetings fellow HBTers, So the SWMBO and I are hosting our christmas party tonight, and as per tradition, I'm making a mulled cider. This usually includes some combination of cloves, cinnamon, brown sugar, apfelwein (~9% abv), regular apple juice, and some nice spiced rum. It's...

+1, especially Game of Thrones. Also loved Spartacus Blood and Sand

Hahah agreed. MW2 air support is much worse than MW3. My real grievance with this game is the spawning, it seems absolutely bizarre and irrational at times. Game's good though, I really like it.

And I can't wait for the third:D Another game I've heard interesting things about is Rage. Anyone played? Sort of a cross blend between borderlands and fallout. It's sort of a traditional fps in how it plays, but it's a really rich environment. Tons of detail.

Hey Creamy, I haven't ordered a lot from the states. I always hesitate to because of the cross-border charges Canadians so often seem to get nailed on (as well as finding a retailer that will actually ship here, as you noted). Legally, he might need, or else it would really benefit him to have...

Mass Effect 1 was one of the best games I've ever played....and Mass Effect two is even better. If you haven't played the series, do it. Do it now.

Ace_Club you are dead wrong my friend...Giada does have a head:D

I have a beard, but just use a hair trimmer to keep it a reasonable length. Used to hate how I looked with a straight shave. But this costs about $50 and can give you any length of beard. My girlfriend also does my hair with it; best investment I ever made. I usually use a razor to trim under my...

My favorite of all time:

Yeah I would have no problem with the clear glass. But the seller just emailed me saying he just sold them...too bad for me.

So I was just cruising Kijiji, and saw these bottles. Any thoughts on whether or not they might be usable? Only $5 a dozen so good deal. http://saskatoon.kijiji.ca/c-ViewAdLargeImage?AdId=253355052 Scott

Oh my god stop!! I'm laughing so hard!!! I laughed for about an hour for the first 10 pages...finally calmed myself. And then you pushed me back off again. I felt guilty for a bit there...but its just so f***in funny! This thread has just made my week!

Easily doable. I did/do what's called the Paleo diet (same as the 'Primal Blueprint'). Stick to it pretty loosely throughout, but will do it really strong for several months in the summer and it keeps me pretty lean. Even while continuing beer drinking (my only exception), in the first summer I...

Doubtful it's a problem with my process. It went straight into the ale pale and hasn't been touched for four weeks, and has only 3 inches of headspace. I clean and sanitize everything religiously, so I'm not sure what the issue is. Either way, I'll let it be and see what comes of it in the next...
