    Anyone gotten the 40% off at HomeBrewSupply.com to work?

    They are advertising a 40% off code TAKE40 storewide but I can't get it to work on anything. It keeps telling me I must be logged in and if I am logged in than the code is invalid for my product...

    Legion on FX

    Anyone else watching this show? It's really a great show but completely bizarre... Every time an episode ends I find myself questioning what just happened.

    What is the lowest score you've ever medaled with in a comp?

    Was over on Reddit and saw a post were a guy had entered a homebrew comp and won a gold medal with an IPA that scored a 34. Made me start to wonder if this is a common thing or if that is low. Seems rather low to me but who knows how the other entries did or how many there were total.

    TRAPPIST-1 exoplanet system

    I got all excited seeing TRAPPIST thinking it may have been a nod to Trappist breweries, but alas it is not: https://www.nasa.gov/press-release/nasa-telescope-reveals-largest-batch-of-earth-size-habitable-zone-planets-around It actually stands for The Transiting Planets and Planetesimals...

    Sour beer question

    I have a very simple recipe sour going and it has been sitting for about 4 months now. It's in a bottling bucket and I pulled a sample a few days ago and the sample was not sour. Pushing on the lid, the smell coming from the airlock smells sour. It seems to me that the top of the beer may be...

    Home construction question

    Hello knowledgeable HBTers! I just recently purchased a home and found that the I-beam jack in the basements seems to be off-center. This is something that I have no idea about. All I know is that it should not be like this. Here is the photo: Anyway, is this something that I can...

    Heading to Chicago for the holidays, any beer recommendations?

    Have been to Chicago the last few years for Christmas and always try to find new beers to try. I probably won't have time to make it out to any breweries so readily available recommendations are appreciated. I've had quite a few selections from Half Acre, Revolution and Goose Island (also...

    Brewed a coffee stout, kind of lacking in body...

    Greetings, I brewed a 5 gallon batch of coffee stout following this recipe on AHA: https://www.homebrewersassociation.org/homebrew-recipe/beer-recipe-of-the-week-coffee-stout/ It turned out pretty tasty but kind of thin on the body. The coffee flavor is definitely there and quite a bit...

    Colorado Anyone know anybody who has taken the brewing course at Regis University?

    I'm considering enrolling in the course in Fall of 2017 and just wondered if anyone out there has taken it or knows anyone who has to provide some insight into it. Mainly, is it worth it?

    Mr. Robot

    It's a bit late in the show to be starting this thread, but does anyone else out there watch Mr. Robot? Such a good show! Keeps getting better and better. If you have not seen it, I highly recommend giving it a chance.

    My beers are finishing with a big harsh bitterness

    My last few batches, I'd say at least last 3, have all finished with a big harsh bitterness, almost metallic, in the flavor. The batches have been varied: first was a porter, second was an IPA and third was a hefeweizen. I'm an extract brewer and have been following the same procedure for...

    Hoppy Brown Ale

    Thinking of brewing the following recipe this weekend. It's a take on a recipe found on the Mad Fermintationist's website for a hopped-up brown ale: http://www.themadfermentationist.com/2009/03/hoppy-brown-ale-india-brown-ale.html Looking for a hoppy beer with a nice malty backbone and some...

    Advice needed: Chiropractic BioPhysics, anyone heard about this?

    So I got suckered into a free dinner/sales pitch for a chriopractor in town and at the end of the pitch he was offering a $20 exam. The exam included x-rays and an evaluation. The results of such were basically a scare tactic "if you don't get this fixed it's going to get worse and then you'll...

    Horny Goat Brewing - Peanut Butter Chocolate Porter

    Got to try this beer over the holiday and damn is it good! I've never heard of the brewery and found it as a single in a mixed 6-pack. Smells just like peanut butter and tastes like a damn Reese's peanut butter cup.
