The cans we get here don't have the widget in it.

Get different bottles. Not worth the effort you already put into it.

Wow, nice craftsmanship. Looks great.

A brewing friend in our club in Ottawa recently had his dog to the vet after the dog ate spent grain with the leftover from the boil, ( hops ) on top. Dog just pulled through. So it isn't a myth.

To who. Talk about trendy... craft brew is just that. To each his own taste. :mug: See the quote from skylor60 about understanding different tastes...

Actually PBR is a great beer.

I had a buddy of mine get busted a little while ago with meth pils. I always knew he sold a little weed and hash and I don't think that was much to worry about. But meth is another thing. He deserves every thing the judge gives him if he is found guilty I don't live in a huge metro region, but...

Taste it to see if you think it's OK. I have used 2 year old grain and have won medals with the beer made from it, so it should be good if it was stored properly.

That's one reason I went with a gear motor at 105 rpm's. Another plus is the fact that now I don't have as much stress and wear on the mill bearings that I would from a belted application and less danger from moving parts like belts and pulleys.

It don't last long on the shelves here though. Good thing too. Like you say, it's on the top shelf of a glass door cooler, so wouldn't be long before it was unfit to drink. Last one I bought came in a cardboard tube complete with glass, so there was no way for that one to go off anyway. Most...

I have had it recently in both can and clear bottle. Both times it have been perfect. I do love me the hen.

Hey, how's it going? Welcome to HBT. Lots of brewers from down under. I used to post to a site Grumpys Brauhaus in SA http://www.grumpys.com.au/ used to have on the go 6 years ago. Met a good friend on that site that still keeps in contact with me almost every week.

Use a meter to check if you are indeed getting power through to the terminals on the controller to make sure it is the controller and not the freezer. Did you try plugging in the fridge on it's own to see if that was working?

Also if bottling from a keg without actually counter pressure filling it, it helps to slightly over carb the keg so that by the time you fill and cap your brew, you have the carbonation you need for the style you are entering. Good luck with your first competition. I love them. Right now, I have...

You have to go to this https://secure.neap.net/mailman/listinfo/brewers page to sign up, and a g-mail account or some other e-mail account that can handle high traffic volumes would be recommended for sign up. Although due to geography, I don't participate in many functions other than...

Happy Birthday Yooper

I have found that some tall neck bottles like Corona for example, that are difficult.

If you pitch the correct amount of healthy yeast into a wort at proper fermenting temps of about 50f you'll get a better brew for it in my opinion. You'll get less esters and diacetyl. The reason they tell you to start ferment at 65f or there-a-bouts is so with a less than ideal amount of...
