    Question - Crossing the border?

    Wow, that *was* four years ago now. In the time since, I've successfully brought many bottles of beer across the border from BC into Washington, and not once did anyone so much as blink. I did get asked once "Is it any good?" I replied Yes. Yes it is. One guard did pull out several...

    How many gallons of EdWort's Apfelwein have been made?

    Forgot to come back here! I've done three more this year. 13704 + 15 = 13719

    Sizing your Chest Freezer for Corny Kegs

    Well, I jumped. Bought two of these Danby DCF709s for $230 each at Home Depot, here in BC. It's a bit tight, but I can get 4 kegs in easily; 5 if I raise the collar high enough. They have a drain plug, and a manual thermostat on the front. With four kegs and at the lowest setting, it's been...

    Sizing your Chest Freezer for Corny Kegs

    I have a good chance at a couple of Danby DCF709Ws, and since my last freezer dies I'm thinking about jumping. Has anyone looked at these units yet? Although I've made some of the great cardboard disks, I can't look in the freezers because they're still in their strapped packaging. Danby

    I forgot to add water to the primary....

    I've done exactly this previously, and then had a tough time trying to duplicate it properly. It's going to be a different beer, but it will still be BEER. That's what's important. On the other side of the toast, I accidentally dumped an additional 2 gal of water into a porter I was making...

    holy crap, 2.5 gallons evaporation in 60 min

    +1! I've been losing 2.5 gallons on boils, and have been "living" with less beer. It's been very clear though. Today I pulled 7.5 gal of wort off, and had 5 gal left after 60 min. boil, and even then topped up after what I'd lost to trub. So, while I'm not a *complete* noob to this, is...

    Most expensive 2 gallons I've ever had! (+100 for hop bags)

    I only ever use whole hops, and I haven't had it stuck since I started using the scrubber; First I whirlpool the heck out of the cooled wort, and let it sit 20 minutes or so. Then I've got a pure copper scrub pad fastened around the end of my auto-siphon using an elastic band, and suck it all...

    How many gallons of EdWort's Apfelwein have been made?

    +1 to that. "You're *out* of Apfelwein?? When will it be ready again?" Another 10 for me... 6586 + 10 = 6596

    Show us your Kegerator

    Here's mine, from an unusually sized freezer. It's in the games room in the basement.

    plastic secondary

    One-and-a-half words for you: OxyClean. Man, I don't know how I did without it. A scoop of OxyClean, fill the thing up with water, and let it sit for an hour. Having said that, I'm slowly switching over to Better Bottles, but still using OxyClean.
