    Six year old homebrew... not terrible

    My Homebrewing club is 30 years old. One of the founders stopped brewing some time ago, but hosted us for a yearly meeting. He would bring out aged beers to share to recognize what aged beer tasted like. At the same time meeting, another would bring a vertical tasting of barley wines going back...

    Fat Heads Sunshine Daydream clone attempt

    Forgot to circle back on this. I brewed this twice in a few weeks, and compared it to a fresh 6 pack of Sunshine Daydream. There were several differences, but also the SD from the brewery is subtly different. The original has much less of the melon and citrus character that I originally...

    Fat Heads Sunshine Daydream clone attempt

    Hi Weezy. I used a slightly modified version of your recipe due to ingredients (had to swap c10 in for c15, and increase by 50%). And I used slightly more buttering hops because I was lazy and did not weigh them out well. For yeast, my favorite house yeast is San Diego Super Yeast. And I...

    Fat Heads Sunshine Daydream clone attempt

    i love this beer. Since Big Brew is tomorrow, I ordered up the Ingredients and plan on brewing this tomorrow. I'll reply back when I can evaluate it next to the original. Thanks for the help. I'm on my phone so can't easily post the recipe, but will when it's done. Titus

    Jockey Box, Cold Plate vs Coil

    I used 25 feet of 3/16" inner diameter beer line for my cheap jockey box. The line is coiled into a bucket of ice inside the igloo cooler. The one thing I noticed is that I have to run a bit more pressure to dispense without foam. I regularly sit the cooler above the kegs (about 30 inches, on...

    Jockey Box, Cold Plate vs Coil

    Our club pulled the cold plates out of a 10 tap system, and replaced it with just beer line hose. Turns out, it worked just as well, sitting in ice, in 90+ degree heat, with uncooled kegs. It is cheap to replace (if necessary), and the two 5-channel cold plates were put into jockey boxes, for...

    BIAB brew stand with hoist and pump

    Speedoguy, I had the bayou classic 40 quart. Very similar to that picture, but as it was pointed out, I removed the handle and put it back after adding a cloth bag, and put a little damage on the rolled lip, not to mention the handle got shortened. So, I probably caused my own problem. I...

    BIAB brew stand with hoist and pump

    I think my 10 gal bayou classic pot would have been fine if I hadn't tried to modify it, which required removing the handle, and it got a bit of a kink in the rolled lip. The handle also got trimmed a little, which might account for the pulling in more than their stock design. Glad to hear it...

    BIAB brew stand with hoist and pump

    Hey Fortydegnorth, I have attempted something similar with a aluminum kettle and the inserted basket. The problem I found, on a 10 gal BIAB setup, is that the weight and the handle are incompatible. When raising the basket, the handle pulls the sides in. This was with only about 20 lbs of...
