You would have to teach me the ways of burnin metal, my friend. Last (only) time I had a date with a TIG welder, I melted everything. Most of my problem was that I had a poor "instructor". I knew he wasn't telling me to do it right, but since we're friends, I just acted like I was a complete idiot.

I was at the in-laws' house for my daughter's birthday party and found a bottle of my first dry stout! I thought these were long gone. Brewed in November of last year. It's as good as I last remember it...maybe slightly better. It would benefit from a little more body; otherwise, it's not bad at all.

Jamil's 70/-

Only 2 weeks in keg and this thing is already really good. It's got a gorgeous red tinge to it:

It already laces pretty well and it's still young. I need to wait a couple more weeks for it to fall clear.

Couple 2yr old homebrews Golden Tap Gem (Gold malt extract Pacific Gem hops partial mash) not bad but was terrible at first maybe cuz of my Tap water I used and used only once- I would call the style kind of a copper ale, and had an Amber with a variety of 11 grains partial mash and very good still-oxygen caps work well. Pretty much R/O water and a little gypsum-worked well in that. Pretty much going with R/O water cut with some Spring water or not, and with a bit of brew salts for ph for my beers from here on.

Weirdly enough, most of what they do at my company is MIG and yet I've never touched it. Only reason I had a TIG torch in my paws were because my buddy was welding my keggle and since I expressed interest, he said he'd "teach" me. I need proper instruction! I have the book smarts, but no practical experience except that one time.

Water.


Just opened the closet where I have Dave37's robust porter and my. It brown both fermenting away. Smells like heaven.

There are six beers fermenting in my house right now. I've got a problem. :D

You talked me into a Chub, good stuff!
Anyone have any experience with pet insurance? Considering insuring the new pup, the damn vet isn't getting any cheaper.

You won't regret it. I didn't like my first one because of what I had been previously drinking. Every other one I have had has been amazing.

Pet insurance? Well, like any insurance, be sure to read the fine print. Also look at what is and isn't covered and what your copay will be. It all depends on what you expect out of your pup. Is (s)he accident prone (and I'm not talking about on the carpet)?
 
Jamil's ordinary bitter. This is probably my favorite yet out of Brewing Classic Styles. Such a great beer, and I love the English yeast character

Another thing I like about English yeast is how completely it drops out:

After seeing all the Old Chub being flaunted, I think that's next :D

I used to defend contracts but not involving pets. I can maybe help with questions or picking a plan if you want. PM me and I'll be back on tomorrow. I haven't purchased for my dog but I'm about to. She's 3.5 and likely going to benefit from it.

Shake Chocolate Porter. Been in my fridge for a while. Eh, it's OK.

I love it and wish I could get it. I emailed the brewery for help with a recipe and they ignored me. I'll brew my own chocolate porter and probably forget about theirs in a heartbeat. I prefer breweries that at least want to share the basics. Clones to me are flattering to breweries but maybe I'm wrong and asking for help was a dbag move on my part.

Thanks! Chilled it to 33, stirred it well with a stainless spoon till I had a nice whirlpool going in the keg then added 1 packet of Knox gelatin dissolved in 1 cup water, and left it at 33 for a week. I try to do that with all my beers that aren't dry hopped, and it has worked great for me so far.
 
Had to have the Old Chub after seeing such fine pours of it. I put about 1/3 oz of Fighting Cock bourbon into the bottom of the glass before pouring. This particular Fighting Cock had been sitting on 6oz of medium plus toast american oak cubes for a month. I'm in heaven!

I bought gelatin but haven't gone for it yet, clear beer isn't anything I obsess over, as long as it tastes good or better. Can't tell if it's clear when you can't see:mug:
