I guess I have to sanitize everything. Kinda obsessed that way. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

I do still have the last one I bought. I broke the flask on my last bottling adventure. They seem to slip out of my hand during sanitizing. Same with the flask but I bought a plastic one this time. Here's to keeping this hydrometer! Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Who knows. My buddy even broke his when we were brewing last month. I guess I'm just bad luck with those things. I still have my last one just no flask to check it in. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

I have never taken a successful reading with a hydrometer. I have broken the last 5 that I owned and I finally have another one. I was getting ready to check the FG on the beer I was bottling last night and BROKE THE FLASK! It's just never going to happen Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

I agree with FoCo. Al of the Loveland breweries are good. My favorites are Grimm Brothers, Loveland Aleworks and Crowhops. Verboten and Big Beaver are decent, too. Haven't had the pleasure of high hops, yet. Sent from my iPad using Home Brew

Thanks. I may need my 8 year old daughter help me with that math. Lol. Seriously, I think I can figure it out with your formula. I've had this recipe for about a year and it may be a while before I get to it as I am just starting to switch from extract to all grain. Thanks again. Sent from my...

I got a recipe for an all grain Saison recipe from a local brewery but they gave me the recipe is % rather than pounds. I need to convert this to a five gallon batch. Anyone know of a conversion chart or calculator for doing this? I would love to try this recipe. Sent from my iPad using Home Brew

We should get together for a pint at high hops sometime. I have been looking for an excuse to try them. Sent from my iPad using Home Brew
