next time instead of hops, boil it with some spam. i don't know why, but whenever I hear of ovaltine, i think of spam.

my recent results: milk stout - amazing at 2-3 months (best beer i've made by far and even non beer drinkers liked it), now at 7-8 months it's certainly taking a turn for the worse. I thought a nice roasty stout would age better than this. Black IPA - had a pretty significant twang early on at...

Found this deal on slickdeals for those looking for a chest freezer. GE 7.0 CF at home depot with free shipping $168.

i had some 120 for the first time a few weeks ago on tap. i didn't like it at all. horrible alcohol bite and way to sweet. i wonder if it was just too young. i'll have to try and get a bottle and age it.

I second a RIS. I'm gonna make one of the giant ones listed in the recipe section probably one of these: Kate the Great Dark Night of the Soul HBT RIS I'm thinking i'll make it in November and try to let it sit for a year to start drinking in a year on my 30th. But from reading the different...

Not sure what you have left. But I'd be interested in the chiller and ranco and could pick them up. Maybe one of the carboys also.

opened my first few bottles of this last night. a bit early, only 1.5 weeks in the bottle, but had to bring some to a party. best batch i've made so far. awesome roasty flavor and residual sweetness. used safale 05 for this and it came out perfect. 3 people who don't like beer at all, really...

Ouch. I've looked at making one of these and with the shipping it doesn't make much sense to buy. Thanks though. On a side note, do you like how this works?

How much to ship to 17033?
