Yes, that is them. The shedding is not near as bad as a lab, but they take lots of brushing. If you spend 10 minutes a day per dog, they usually look okay.

My last dog was Sara, a ten lb poodle from my first marriage. What a great dog. Not very manly, but she grew on me and when I got divorced, I took her with me. She died of cancer two and a half years ago. What an awesome friend! Now we have a Bailey and a Madison, the Old English Sheepdogs...

Cool, I was going to keep going with it anyways. I ain't throwing away that much beer without being sure.:) I am glad I am not the only one this has happened to. Carboys with blowoff tubing, here I come.

I don't think it was overtightened as it was spitting foam and hissing all day. I do think a piece of cherry or something got in the holes and blocked them off which gives the same result. For those of you who have lost a top, did it ruin your beer? It looked fine at first, but after a day is...

I wondered about that. Their directions clearly state to fill up to the 8.5 qt mark and then add the fruit, which I did. All other recipes end up with 8.5 qts though, so you may be exactly right.

No, I don't think I have ever been on that one.

Their directions say to keep it capped. If you remove the lid, you ruin the beer according to them. There are two slots cut into the top of the keg to allow air to escape. It was hissing slightly and spitting out a little foam most of the day. Maybe a cherry piece got stuck in the slot and it...

Yes, I should have grabbed the camera, but was more pissed and surprised and just didn't think about it. Oh well, let my go find one of my pale ales from the first batch. Eric

Well, I brewed two new batches on Sunday. I have two Mr. Beer kegs I got for Christmas. The Honey Maibock is doing fine. I brewed Love Potion Lager in an attempt to get my wife to drink some beer. It is made with Whispering Wheat Weizenbier, Golden Wheat UME, a can of dark, sweet...

Hello, I am located on Kent Island, across from Annapolis.

Hey, I am from Md's eastern shore also. Kent Island to be exact. Sounds like you are making some fancy stuff. Maybe I will one day, but am just learning now. I am enjoying my first Pale Ale right now though. Have a nice night, Eric

Uh Oh, now I'm on my second beer. Maybe I will need one of those five gallon kits sooner than I thought! :drunk:

Hello. I am sitting here enjoying my first self brewed beer. I got a Mr. Beer kit for Christmas and it is finally ready to drink. It actually turned out great and tastes awesome. I ahve bought some more recipes from them, but am really interested in getting better equipment and being a...

Hello. While enjoying my first self brewed beer, I was searching for beer making forums and found this one. Looks like I can get lots of advise here. Eric
