Explaining that would be like chopping up a frog.
Does anyone else have the urge to cook frog legs for dinner tonight?
Just because you left out the words "well, actually" doesn't make it any better
I would certainly hope the frog was dead when you started.
Hmmm...dead frogs...I wonder if I could make beer out of that?
you need to do a cereal mash.
Does he discuss what is actually meant by a "failure"?
The most hilarious part of his book is his attitude of "well back in the bad old days...
And in 60 years homebrewers will be laughing at us. Want to give them more fodder with a (yet another) glass v plastic debate?
Ahh, yes. Some of the greatest debates.
Glass v plastic
Stainless v aluminum
All grain v extract
Dry yeast v liquid yeast
And I'm sure I'm forgetting some.
One that died down a while back: "how necessary is a secondary?" It wasn't that long ago that the old 1/2/3 rule had legs and people tried to get the beer into secondary the second that the beer hit FG.
Thank you! I knew I was forgetting a big one.
Secondary v no secondary
-The milk stout contains glucose (2 pounds to go along with the 2 pounds of white sugar) instead of lactose, details details. I wonder what 2 pound of lactose would do to a beer? It has 1 pound of base malt though, so better than the last recipe. Also corn flakes for some reason?
Omg. That is crazy. I knew Canada was high on liquor tax but that takes the cake. Is this a reservation? I know I don't know Canadian law but is this usual? I know that would never fly down here in the states. At least not the northern half.
Do they have to approve your brewing supplies? I'm curious because I imagine all goods in must come through the same distribution channels? How do you convince them that brewing up beer in largish quantities will a) be drunk responsibly and b) won't reach the blacklisted. Sounds like a fascinating community though.
Just looked it up on Wikipedia. Wow, I guess home brewing makes the most sense for you. Do they heavily tax malts or barley?

the other day I got a can of Sir Walter Raleigh. when I opened it, our 4 y/o wanted to smell it. he said, "It smells like a sour beer." not thinking I heard him correctly, I asked him what he said. he replied very sternly, "I said it smells good like a sour beer!" I made him repeat it again for my wife later that night. I'm so damn proud!

I would say that he wants it to be rocket fuel but then there is the rule about it being no higher than, what was it, 4.5%? Must be because without it the beer is too clean.
[...]He started with boiling any kind of grain on hand (not mashing, just boiling) and then throwing in sugar and baker's yeast. If you start THAT way then even this piece of **** book is a massive massive step up[...]
