Wallace. Someone abandoned him… I’ve had him 1 month. He is a sweet dog.

Yes. And a few other places. I just hope they grow here in west Texas.

I ordered 5 plants. We’ll see how they do in west Texas…

Thanks! I’ll call them.

I’m in west Texas now. I’d like to try my hand at hop growing. Neomexicanus is probably my best shot. Any preferred vendors? Tips? Cheers

Not unless you are trying to boil off to get to your correct OG.

Maybe look at gruit.

I’d like to try it on for size!

Howdy. What part of Texas are you in? There are no brew stores here in west Texas. I grab supplies when I visit my son in Kansas City.

And when you get some extra cash… the allinonewinepump.com vacuum pump. Eliminates most lifting. Transfer from bucket to carboy to bottle. Love mine. I’m not affiliated with them, except for being a happy customer. Cheers

Try charcoal lighter fluid. Works great on sticky stuff, and evaporateds quickly.

I have the 10.5 anvil and love it. I haven’t brewed for a while due to moving 3500 miles, rebuilding an old house, and not having a brew space. I used a gravity 3 tier set up for several years. The ease of electric is great for many reasons. I highly recommend it. Cheers

It’s looking good! I’d be willing to bet good money that it’ll be delicious.

Thanks, I got it sorted.
