Thanks BigEd

Getting ready to brew a batch monday . I will be using 8 lb. of 2row and 2 lb. of white wheat malt. I have read that u need to use rice hulls when mashing wheat. With 8 lb of 2 row i think i will be ok but not sure, what do you folks think. Thanks in advance.:mug:

Hell its just a batch of the best beer i have ever brewed, maybe the best in the world ! I'll toss it , no need in gettin a glass shard hung in my gullet

what about glass? Just the bottom tip was broken

just the bottom with the shot,, the other tube with the reading lines is still intact

I cant believe this..... the damn thing just broke itself and i have a brand new one in my kit

thats what i was thinkin but not sure... Thanks. i got 5 and a half gals boiling now. Damn i hate to throw it out

brewing a batch today ( right now) and broke my thermometer in my wort , got all them little black balls in my dam beer ... I strained it as best as i could do but not sure if its safe .. Its the floating kind that i bought with my starter kit a couple of years ago. what do i do?

i drink a lot of beer, and my pee always smells like it has piss in it...lol

When you roll the bottle on a flat surface, it rolls the farts out..

I don't have a problem because i always roll the bottle on the table before i open it.. Try it

My wife caught me sniffing the airlock one morning.. I felt like a pervert when she got through laughing at me..lol but i still do it when she ain't around

Due to my work, i am home for a month and away for a month so about half my brews stay in the bucket 4 to 5 weeks and they are always my best, clear crisp clean YUM YUM

Thanks PoppinCaps for your input. I have done 6 batches this way and they have turned out pretty darn good i think.I have a 8 gal. kettle ordered so i can use my old 5.5 gal pot to mash in now..That could improve my efficiency somewhat..Always trying to improve my brews, thats the fun part of...

I never check anything so i thought i would at least take a gravity reading on a batch i brewed Saturday. After that i got to wondering how i have been doing with efficiency and thats where i need help. here is my grain bill..7 lb 2 row, 1 lb German munich, .5 lb caramal 40, .5 lb carapils..brew...
