You get one less piece of equipment to wash. Other than that, everything should work out just fine.

Picked up grain today to brew some more Deception Cream Stout on Friday. I have a black IPA that should probably find its way into a keg that day too ...

Thanks!

We've got a fairly large crowd coming this year so the wife is doing the brined full-bird in the oven and I've great big bone-in breast I'm going to do on the smoker.

I've been using this and it has been my favorite DIY project yet. Simple but really useful.

Tin snips have always worked well for me, or a sharp pocket knife in a pinch.

The Deception Cream Stout is the only batch (out of dozens) I've only brewed multiple times. It's awesome and my friends love it too. Even the light beer drinkers drink it, which really surprised me, so I keep brewing it!

I do both. I don't have a mill or space to store lots of grain, so I have to have it milled in-store and then must brew fairly quickly. I can keep extract on hand and brew some beer when I've got a keg running low anytime I want. I always have hops vacuum sealed in the freezer and washed yeast...

I'm the same way. I crave an ice cold Miller Lite after a day of sweating away on yard work. :mug:

Sweet! The deal was good in-store too? Might have to stop by during lunch tomorrow.

This has been the best way I've found to use Starsan too. I mix it up with distilled water and it lasts a long time.

Bumping a slightly old thread ... I've been enjoying this a lot, and so does my family, and would love to brew a clone to have in the kegerator. I'm yet to brew a Saison, so don't have any experience with them, but found this on the Liftbridge web site, if it's any help at all: Anyone...

Here are the recipes for Belgians and French ales in the recipe database: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f71/ I looked through it and there was at least one listed as a Hoegaarden clone in there, and quite a few other similar looking recipes. Good luck!

I dry-hop in primary exclusively. Never used gelatin though.

I keg beergaritas for my wife and her friends when we have parties. It's got lemon lime soda, beer, limeade and tequila in it (it's actually kind of refreshing). I've had to change the seals on the keg to get the lime odor out of it. Now I dedicate a keg to her beverage and just clean it out...

I've got most of my stuff on a shelving unit in our laundry room in the basement. My brewing takes place in the garage, which is on the same level as the laundry room. Recently I tried to do some organization so I've got a couple fairly large rubbermaid tubs and one is filled with stuff for...

I bought my starter kit there years ago. They forgot to include a DVD that was supposed to go with it. I emailed them and they sent it out express that same day. Had a bunch of other orders there and all went off fine too.

I've done a couple Amarillo IPAs and really liked them. The first was all Amarillo and the second I used another hop for bittering so I didn't have to burn through all of my Amarillo stash. Here are a few threads: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f69/all-amarillo-ipa-28517/...

Here's the basic ratio she uses for pitchers of it - we scale it up depending on how many people we expect to have drinking it. I keep it in the keezer but serve it through a short hose and a picnic tap, so we do have to open the top of the freezer to dispense. I was concerned about the acidity...
