My beer conditions in a closet so i'm not worried. Just happy i got a 2 for 1 deal.

I'm always in the market for neat bottles, went to the base gas station and they had these guys. Never heard of the beer but i got two 4 packs. Bought it for the bottles but this is the best lagar i have ever had. My lager experience is limited but this is a great beer.

I haven't had a chance to try it out, but i will with my next batch. It's pretty simple and i am sure some one else has something similar. I bought a 4ft strip of aluminum and bent it to fit snug inside my kettle, bent the end to they pop together and press on the sides snug enough to not...

My grandpa and pa were awesome so that automatically makes me awesome. BTW i have no clue what i am doing but since my pa and grandpa were awesome that automatically makes me awesome. Hey, BTW can you help me i have no clue what i am doing but all those scrubs doing things differently than my...

I'm new and i would like to try "Mini brews" with my own recipes just to figure out what i can do.

Just wondering because it's nasty... I think i'm better off driving 40 mins and buying a few...

Thanks for the quick reply! I have sat and stared at it and got no bubbles after 3+ mins. I didn't see the level of the bubble change either i guess ill give it a few more days as you recommended.:(
