Haha this movie gave me nightmares as a kid. I finally watched it again last year with SWMBO because she never saw it. Watching it again ruined a childhood memory for me forever.
Beep Beep! Nizzie!
Reminds me of Zebo the evil clown...
Brand spanking new to this forum (forums in general). Can anyone point me to an answer or discussion on grain and wort? Milled grain... Grain bag, or dump it in to boil? Friend gave me a kit with 11 lbs of grain, and don't have a boil sack big enough... Use 3 bags or dump in for a 5 gallon wort boil?
You try cold crashing it? Its the only way dryhopping loose pellots doesnt suck for me.
Channel66 said:I'll bite. What are the exact contents of the kit? 11lbs sounds like a small all grain batch, or a partial mash kit. If that's the case you're going to have a bit more work to do.
First off, thanks for replying. If you're brewing, hit me later... Or have another!

I'm up to try, but feel it may be a learning experience. Brewing hobby for 5 years, but only a batch here and there (maybe my 20th?). Advice? Or should I quit being a baby and brew some damned beer?
Thanks

You are a brew god! Thanks for the encouragement and link. I'll need a MUCH bigger bag than I've used in the past, and the paint strainer? You must be like me, if the tool works, use it!
Thanks again, the link was exactly what I needed.
Cheers!
Osky Blues - G'Knight. Super fresh cans. Love this beer.
It's cold. But I'm sitting on the deck enjoying this beauty. Phenomenal beer.
I'm glad you like. Careful you'll want more. Stuff is addicting! I think I may have one right now!sweed said:Heady! Oh my gosh, best ipa I've had. It has exceeded my expectations. So freakin good!
