I have a potential opportunity to move up within my company, but the promotion would mean a move to San Antonio, and I was wondering if anyone here would be able to tell me what life is like there. I am currently in central ohio, so it would be quite a change. My company is located just...

Are there any other Ohio bowhunters around here? I am just getting started with hunting and I am looking for a veteran to show me the ropes.

I am starting to research wine making, and I was wondering if anyone has a good Vestini clone recipe?

Just wondering if anyone has a clone recipe for the Left Hand brewing Twin Sisters Double IPA.

I had a bottle of Stone's XI Anniversary ale tonight....wow it was amazing...you need to try it. :tank:

How long does it usually take for you to go through a 5 gallon keg? Just trying to plan out my brewing schedule so the brews keep flowing. Also trying to see how much of a lush I am compaired to you all :drunk:

So, I killed my first keg last night. On that last pour, some sludge filled the lines, so I rinsed out my keg with some warm water and put some starsan in it. Hooked the keg up to preasure and then used the starsan to get that gunk out of the line. My question is, how long should that starsan...

starter question. I am going to be brewing an IPA that has an O.G. = 1.072. If I am going to be using dry yeast is it recomended to do a starter or just rehydrate as normal? It seems like it might be a bit too big to not do a starter, but I have never heard of someone here doing a starter...

Just wondering if anyone has tried the AHS Summit IPA extract kit and what you thought about it. It sounds pretty tasty to me, but I dont see any comments for it in their comment section. Thanks :mug:

I have my first two brews kegged and in the fridge. I did 1 week at 12 psi to force carb them, shaking them once a day to help the CO2 go into solution. When I first started pouring them, the IPA had a huge head, the honey ale was a good head, almost perfect. Now they both have too much head...

I would like to recommend to everyone here that they stay away from the beverage factory. Their customer service has been horrible, and the tech support just as bad. They screwed up my initial order, and when I called them back the first time they said that I would have to pay to ship the...

Quick question. I am trying to put together the kegerator system that I purchased from the beverage factory, buyer beware-but thats another rant, and at the present moment I dont have any clamps for the lines. I have not tried to put them on the regs/disconnects etc, but I am wondering if...

I had this posted up in another thread, but I thought I would post it here so the other thread didn't have to be dug through to find it. This is my first try at converting a recipe and wanted to see what you all thought about it. It is a Brown Shugga clone that I am trying to make for my...

Sometimes I love Ebay. I got a copy of the new complete joy of homebrewing for 0.99. Paid 4 total after shipping, cant beat it!

Does anyone know of a good Lagunitas Brown Shugga clone extract recipe? Is there a book that might have it? The google searches I have done have not turned up much of anything, and I would really like to get one started for the holiday season. Hopefully I am not too late.

Not sure if this should be here or general techniques, but here goes. I got my kit off of craigslist, and it came with some Irish Moss. My first batch, an IPA, has been in the secondary for just over a week, and I was wondering if adding the Irish Moss would be a good idea. Would it...

I have an open primary bucket that I decided I wanted to fill today, but I realized that all of my airlocks are on my other 3 fermenters. I do have an extra length of siphon hose. Would it be a good idea to use that as a blowoff tube or should I just wait until I can get another airlock? I am...

Everything that I have read about hefe's says that they are very explosive or violent fermenters. Would a Honey Wheat Ale be considered a hefe? It was this extract kit. The reason I ask is because the fermentation for this beer has been anything but vigorous. I brewed it on the 18th...

I am sure you guys are getting tired of my questions by now, but... I just put my first batch into the secondary, and I have some floaties in there. Is that normal? They are small seed size white looking things... Edit: Also on my first batch, I did not top it off to the 5 gallon mark on my...

Hey all, Is this a good deal on kegs? Seems like it to me, what do you all think?
