I have been searching for ages for a parrot to sit on a beam that runs over the bar and finally found one I like last year so I will be adding him when it's all finished as well. Just gotta find a good name for him. I've thought about adding in one of those "insulting" parrots as well. lol

Quite certain you are right! I have actually wanted to do it for a long time as well, just never knew anyone that knew how that could guide me, ya know? Now, anything is possible! :p

That sounds delicious! Do you think it will work on the sweeter side? I prefer sweet wines (if I could drink eiswein everyday I'd be in HEAVEN!).

My hiney is gonna be outside this weekend working my butt off getting as much done as I can! I am super excited to do this now!! Burger burn, HERE WE COME!!! :ban::mug::tank::D:D:D I will have to see if I can't find a few pics to post for ya'll.

He would love to. He is currently testing for a job at a nuclear plant just across the border in GA. I am crossing all my fingers as it means I will get to see him a hell of a lot more often than I do. Which also means momma is gonna have to get her bootay busy on the beer making! ;)

If it is like balancing pool chemicals, no problem, anything more than that, ehhhhh. I am a watch and learn and take lots of notes kinda girl! I am great at following a recipe, but not so good at having someone tell me what to do and then trying to learn from that. Total visual learner in most...

OH NAYYY! I'm not drinking anything to do with SMLB! That stuff is the bottom of the barrel nasty! LOL But I will happily try one of yours! ;) I would love to take my son to some events but he is a "grown up" and a welder by trade so I don't get to see him as often as I would like. :( But he...

Skeeter Pee is made using the still active lees from a wine batch and making a "hard lemonade" of sorts. Of course it will have a bit of flavor from the wine so I thought a watermelon/peach would be a light enough flavor that it wouldn't be to overwhelming. I saw someone on here had made or...

Well, I have my watermelon/peach wine in the primary (WOOHOO!!), although I forgot the stupid limes while I was out so I will have to grab those when I go pick up my grand daughter from her pre-k summer camp. I think I am going to try a Skeeter Pee with this batch, and them maybe a...

Thanks Bernardsmith! I saw the spray bottle method somewhere right before I started the watermelon/peach batch so I did that and it was SO much easier!! I only mixed up a couple gallons of sanitizer and tossed in everything I could and what I couldn't fit in the little bucket I sprayed down, as...

What brew stores do ya'll use? As far as I know there is only one in the area (Bet-Mar in Columbia). I would be interested in visiting others if there are any, not that there is anything wrong with Bet-Mar, they are incredibly helpful and super kind about answering any and all of my questions...

Thanks BuMbleB! So I guess I will use it for each batch I start and the first few days until it goes into the carboy and then dump it and start with fresh solution each time. So far we are doing ok with the rubbermaid (it's an "extra duty" container) but I will keep an eye on it, I keep it...

So another probably silly question... I use a 19 gallon rubbermaid bin to sanitize all my gear (with starsan). If I use it and then put the lid on it, how long is the sanitizer good for? ~Alli

Thanks guys! Think I will be starting this watermelon/peach batch today! <3

LOL We spend many a weekend at Wateree. If I could buy lakeside property I would be in seventh heaven!!!

Oh I am not adding water to my current batch. I am asking about the water I use to start my next batches. This batch called for distilled water and some of the recipes for the batch of watermelon/peach I want to use just say "add water" and I wasn't sure what method was right. I do not want to...

I have city water but I can use it from the fridge which is filtered. We do have a ridiculously expensive filter system that was installed on the house several years ago, but it isn't working properly so... What would I treat my water with if I were to use distilled water? Is it ok to use any...

No corn dog stand in the mall here. Hardly anything worth mentioning there anymore. :( I have only lived here about 6 years now.. I'm originally from Alaska by way of Florida.

Hi ya'll! Just stopping in and waving a quick hello from Scumter! Where are ya'll located (if you don't mind me asking)? I posted a hello to the whole forum on the intro page, but since I was sent a request to join you guys in here, I thought I would stop in real quick. ~Alli
