Just out of curiosity, did you take a taste test before primary? Was it soapy then?

It turned into a 4.5 hour brew day after work yesterday trying to avoid scorching. I mashed 2lbs of pumpkin with 12lbs of grains. Set my temp to 212*F, and reduced power to my element. Took about 30 minutes or so to get to a boil while stirring like a mad man and having my chugger pump running...

I do just about every weekend. I don't drink like a sailor (unless you compare me to my friends)

It was during the mash. I'm afraid to try again with the same results. Its not a cheap recipe I'm brewing lol And to clarify, the scorching happens during boil, not during the mash. But I may go with attempt #2, and just baby the boil (turn down the power to my element), keep my chugger on...

Hey all. I've ran into an issue that I've not yet encountered in my electric brewing history. Background info: I've been brewing electric for about a year now. I have a 5500W ULWD element in my 15 gal kettle. I've only scorched 2 batches and those were by negligence (not cleaning the...

A couple more designs to consider....

Thanks guys! Your not the first to point the stripe out, so I think I'll remove it. Glad to get some others perspectives! Thanks and cheers :mug:

I was trying to go for "playful energy"...Would that font stop you from buying it (if it were on a shelf at a store) if you were looking to try something new? I agree.. I was just trying to find something that would slap it on a bottle easily for me. Good responses guys, thanks! I do...

Thank you Melana! I think I'm going to go with the colored one of my logo design. (But more feedback is always welcome!)

That's exactly how I feel. LPs > Strats > Vs. (Ok, I've played my strat more than my LP lately. :rockin:) How's this look?

Updated my logo with an ' :mug: Anyone else have any input?

Thanks. I actually thought the apostrophe looked weird so I took it out. I guess this is why we get third opinions! :D

Ok, I've been stuck trying to design a label for my bottles. Here's what I've personally designed (using my limited skills) so far: Using the online tool: And here's what a designer has offered me (for almost free, but with restrictions): Opinions? I'm trying to include a label with 2...
