Brewed this today so I'll let you know how it turns out. I took your advice and cut back the 2-row and added some Vienna.

Leaf fan here and....well...I'll just quietly let myself out.

Rrrriiiiggghhhttt...the dog does.

What???? Why was Rona selling hops? Also, which Rona?

I keep mine in my cold cellar for about 8 months of the year. The temp in the winter usually sits around the 40s so if works out well.

Very nice! I did a similar one with a Wendel Clark figurine. Man I miss the Norris Division...

So I just cracked the first beer of this batch after about a week of bottle conditioning to check it and it's pretty good. I did add a bit of the tincture and can taste a bit of the vodka. Should I expect that to mellow a bit? It did add quite a bit of heat though. Wow!

Hey guys, I posted this over in the DIY sections as well because I wasn't sure where the appropriate section to add it was. Mods please delete the one that doesn't fit. :mug: I recently completed my new weldless brewstand using angle iron and I'm in the early stages of planning a control...

Hi guys, I recently completed my new weldless brewstand using angle iron and I'm in the early stages of planning a control panel for it. I'm looking for any help for the wiring and have a few questions about what I will need. My setup uses propane so I'm not looking to automate the...

That's a good point. I've contacted the owners to see if the pumps are rated for higher temperatures. Thanks.

Being a freelancer I have a bit of an odd schedule. I just brewed 62 gallons in the last 4 weeks, 60 of which were 10 gallon batches. I brewed only 2 10 gallon batches in the 3 months leading up to that. I'm probably hovering around 150 gallons on the year.

Is that the beer Eric Bischoff makes? How could it be bad? I mean look how well the WCW is doing these days...
