I had some extra bottle caps left over from my last bottling day. I forgot them in a tupperware filled with star san for a few days. When I noticed them they had a film on the outside of the caps after I dried them out. I don't think I would risk messing up some hard worked on home brew...

There have been threads about overrated beers but let's hear about some underrated ones. For me it would have to be the reverend by Avery. I'm not an expert on quads but I have had a sheet* load of craft and I absolutely love this one. But let's hear some of your favorite beers that fly under...

I brewed a porter recently and read the instructions wrong and didn't add my bittering hops until 30 minutes left of the boil. I could have literally punched myself and don't know how I read it wrong. I thought it was odd that I have never not had a 60 minute addition and by the time I...

There are so many beers out there that are not distrubuted to AZ. I'm sure this happens to you guys in other states too. I have made a huge list of breweries I've read and heard about and I'd love to try and was wondering if you guys have any insight on how I can get them other than flying to...

Just realized I'm brewing on the last day of life as we know it. I'm brewing an AG Lil Sumpin Sumpin Clone. I think I'm going to rename it "Sumpin like an Apocalypse". Who's brewing with me?

Is anyone going to What Ales Ya this weekend? Or how about any other spots in AZ for the Big Brew Day 5/7/11? Or do you not give a care? Lets hear it. :fro:

My brother in law just built a custom bbq grill and invited me over this weekend to watch the fights. I'd like to get him a nice wall mount bottle opener as a gift but I don't have time to order it online. Can anyone recommend a good store that would have a selection of them in stock? I...

Not sure if anyones interested but right now on Tanga you can get a 1 yr subscription for only 5.99. Its 74% off. But act fast if you are. It says its only good for 4 more hours. I just now saw it and ordered myself. :mug:

I'd like to try multiple dry hopping but had some questions. If using carboys would you have to rack from one to another when introducing the next hop and discarding the previous or is there a better way to remove the previous hop sack? I hear ~5 days is a good amount of time to get a good...

With St. Patrick's day just around the corner I wanted to ask everyone what is their favorite beer to drink on this day? I'd like to try out something other than Guiness for once and it would be nice to hear of some recommendations or traditions. :tank:

One of my favorite brews is Stones RIS and I cant wait until Apr 18 for its next release. I am about to brew a full extract Imperial Stout from MidwestSupplies. I was wondering what the major differences are between a RIS and regular Imperial stout. I read on the BJCP style guide on RIS and...

I got into a bit of an arguement with a Packer fan at work. He asked what I thought of the game and I said I started to fall asleep after half time and that I was glad the Steelers didnt get another ring and Rodgers tied Favres record but I would have liked to see some lead changes or a come...

Saturday I survived my first brew day. It took for-fn-ever but I'm sure it will be all worth it. I just received my intermediate brew kit from Midwest along with a Superior Strong Ale kit and a Imperial Stout kit. I was itching to start right away and jumped right in on Saturday with the...

Just dropped over 250 bucks for an intermediate kit w/ 2 glass carboys and an Imperial Stout and Superior Strong Ale kit from Midwest Supplies. Wish they would have thrown in a wine thief or some hop bags for all that dough. But all in all that is nothing compared to some of my other hobbies...
