Yeah, but he's practically Canadian, and we know about Canadian's and beer.

I learned a valuable lesson about bottle conditioning. Being new and impatient, I was trying out beers after 1 week. Hated this Hefe I made, I mean hated it. Tasted like smoked oysters. Little did I know that a month later it's awesome. Unfortunately I poured out about 10 or 12 to make some...

Oh yeah, stop brewing beer...it emits way to much evil CO2, lol

How much of a government subsidy of my money does it take for that. And don't forget the time value of money. In 8 years you should nearly double your money, so it's not really a pay back. But you go for it.

Sounds like some people need to man up and start drinking more...yeesh.

If you think pouring money into a technology that is no where near as effecient as many other conventional power forms, so be it. Solar is horribly cost prohibitive, generates small amounts of power, and is only useful during the day. I guess it makes people feel better because they have...

I taste mine at just about every step :rockin:

I use my bottling bucket to sanitize my bottles, kills two birds with one stone. Fill it with star-san and 4 gallons of water, put the bottles in the bottom for at least 30 seconds each (after all the air is out), empty them and put them on a tree until it's time to bottle.

I less than 3 the Fat Tire!

Can I have your rain?
