most bars over charge for their watered down drinks anyhow. I think they should consider legalizing marijuana (they could regulate it, and it is our nations #1 cash crop already) and drug testing people before they hand out welfare checks. That should pretty much take care of the monetary...

My pint glasses got ran through the dishwasher. Fingerprints show up on them really easy so I know there is a film on them. Is there a way to remove it? I read that it can kill head retention so I was curious.

How has this hobby not spread to the masses? The world may never know.

Well here it is. My Fat Tire clone is delicious, even only 4 days after bottling and warm. Thats when this pic was taken. Now it is 10 days in bottles and I am sipping on number 2. Luckily my SWMBO is pushing me to start kegging so this will be the last batch of bottles... and these wont last...

I brewed up the AHS Double Chocolate Stout this weekend. Fermentation just calmed down enoughto take the blow-off tube off and pop in the airlock. The bucket that the drain end of the blow-off was in had quite a bit of sediment that tasted like cocoa powder. Have I lost the Cocoa flavor? The...

I bought some freez-pops from walmart and have used them in a sink full of water to cool my wort. I just brewed yesterday and used the same freez-pops I have had for 2 months. I throw the freez-pops in the bottom of the sink filled with water, then I drop the pot of wort in there, then put ice...

First of all I am very jealous that you're in Austin. GO HORNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Second, has this ever happened to you? Would it affect bottling?
