    Fortunato's Casque del Amontillado

    I'll see about fading the bricks. As for the Latin, it might be wonky, but it is "correct". "In pace requiescat" is the ending to Edgar Allen Poe's Cask of Amontillado and should translate to "may he rest in peace". If the Latin is wrong, then I blame EA Poe. :-)

    Fortunato's Casque del Amontillado

    I will look into both options. I am sure that GIMP can do both, it is just figurin' out how to do it. Thanks.

    Fortunato's Casque del Amontillado

    The upload messed with the crimson. In GIMP and when printed the crimson is much sharper and there is better contrast between the wall and the lettering. Notice the difference in the clarity of the yellow letters and the red?

    Fortunato's Casque del Amontillado

    I made my first wine kit this weekend, actually it was a port. The kit was a seasonal Chocolate Raspberry Port. I went with an Edgar Allen Poe theme for this one. (For some reason the crimson in the lettering and jesters cap doesn't come out too well at this resolution, kinda spoils it)...

    Chocolate Raspberry Port Although Amontillado is sherry, I thought I would take some artistic license with the label.

    Oh, sorry about the tacos, man. I didn't know when I went to get them.

    Maryland Fall Brew Day 2008 - 10/11/2008

    I have it on my calendar for now. I'll get you some green for all the tobacco I enjoyed. Also, anyone want to start a IMHBT Group for our malted multitude of motley mashing motherf'ers?

    Does this location have access to water? Water that isn't being stolen from a business? :)

    Still the 28th? And where? Just finished reading this thread and it doesn't look like anything concrete was decided.

    Md Spring brew day

    I should be there on Saturday (10 am ok?). I'll be bringing ingredients, my kettle and IC. Don't have a portable burner, so I'll need to borrow somebodies (if one is available). I plan on bringing some bottles for those that need, some homebrew for those that need and a Sanke keg I have...

    Aussie travelling to Virginia for three months

    +1. Plenty of good stuff to try here. Lots of imports and domestics. They don't really have EVERYTHING on the beer menu, but still quite a selection. Gets pretty busy in the evenings.

    One gallon growler/jug on stir plate?

    I just started a 1g starter in a former apple juice glass jug. My stir plate has an adjustable speed and as long as I start slow and work it up to 8 (out of 10), then it stays in the center of the jug. Also, some jugs are more concave than others.

    Incan Beer Pouches

    Anyone have an experience with Incan Beverage Pouches? Although they are a bit pricey for the initial purchase (compared to "free" with most bottles), they are reusable. I don't know if the "oxygen trap caps" are suitable for reuse for long term storage, but I am sure they would be ok for...
