Doing a 1.045 pale right now that was mostly finished in two days and took off like a bat out of hell just like you described. Definitely my future choice for beers that I need quick turnaround on.

Love the house flavor of Stone.

Just acquired three kegs that the previous owner said he held weed killer in. I'm cleaning them today and it smells like glyphosate. My thought is to clean the hell out of them and replace all the plastic and rubber parts and they will be ok. Does anybody have any knowledge on the issue. Bad...

I appreciate the op's comments and the discussion. Another reason I enjoy this site. In general, I think we are quick to share our opinions when we haven't yet taken much time forming them. As a biologist I will admit that understanding of a published study is difficult when it is only...

Did none of you read the article? There's a turning point where she says, "but this would be the wrong conclusion to draw.". You are all so quick to confront that you missed the point of the article. And, many news organizations allow the presentation of content on their websites from many...

I usually have my stuff within the business week. I think they may be having some growing pains as they become more popular. I have a friend that had a few issues, but they were resolved. I just ordered last thursday and Fed ex says it will be delivered tomorrow. That's not bad. I will say...

You are not alone. I suspect it happens quite often. JC did it and talked about it during the early days of The Brewing Network.

Gotta disagree with Edwort on this one. I had no idea that Terrapin was part owned by MillerCoors, but so far that's beside the point. Especially when they are still mostly owned by other entities. My taste buds thought that Terrapin had some very tasty beers last time I tried them. I hope...

My last brew day, I took the last runnings off the mash and put it in containers that went into the freezer with the intention of using it for starters in the future. I'm not sure what the gravity was, but I'm sure it had enough for a starter.

I'm going to a work meeting at the IP Casino in Biloxi from Jan. 25-29. I'm wondering if anyone can recommend a place to get good craft beer while there. We are considering the Top of the Hops beer festival, a jaunt over to Abita, and Lazy Magnolia. Any suggestions for bars or other places to...

Don't get ahead of yourself with those beer names. Exacto knife + smooth glass surface = plasma porter, hacked off Hefe

Howdy, I'm in Western KY now, but went to EIU from 1995-99 and am from Champaign area originally. Good to hear folks are brewing around there. Wish I had been back then. Welcome, this site is amazing!!
