    Vocabulary for Describing and Evaluating Beer

    Great list but it makes me realize I'd be a terrible judge as I don't know what a large number of those descriptors taste like.

    Heat stick

    I have used a hot rod heat stick for almost 2 years to supplement a natural gas burner and have yet to trip a breaker or its built in GCFI plug.

    looking for tap breakdown and cleaning procedure

    I have a 4 tap keezer I built in 2013 that I clean every 2-3 months using a small pump which circulates a BLC solution for 15 minutes through each line followed by a starsan mix for another 15 minutes. I thought this procedure was sufficient until my last keg which had an off taste to it that I...

    What about Pete Townshend bashing Abbie Hoffman with his guitar?

    Tilt hydrometer for temperature control

    Any concern that turning the compressor off and on too frequently will shorten its life?

    The craft beer bubble is busting.

    I am not much of a new beer finder either but thankfully the liquor store a half mile from my house has weekly beer tastings so I get to try a lot of different beers without forking over extravagant six pack prices in search of unicorn beers. If I could just remember to make tasting notes every...

    The decline of the LHBS?

    We have one LBHS in our metro community of about 250k people. It's 25 minutes each way from home but less than 15 minutes from my office. The owner is a friend who also supports all the local homebrewing clubs so I try to buy the vast majority of my perishable supplies from him. This year...

    ukeg cartridges

    The growlerwerks FAQ on CO2 says unthreaded. https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0783/6291/files/GrowlerWerks_Approved_CO2_20160824.pdf?6862403997912691798 If you are brave you could try one I guess. I have always used unthreaded on mine and if you buy in bulk on amazon they aren't very expensive.

    The Home Made Pizza Thread

    My kids gave me a pizza stone, peel, and cutter for father's day. My wife and I christened them with a fresh mozzarella and home grown cherry tomato and basil pie cooked on a RecTec pellet smoker. It was pretty good for my first smoker pizza. Ignore that jar of Ragu on the counter.

    Microbrewery ideas. Need help Good brewers!

    First off, I agree with the previous poster who suggested asking your questions on the probrewer.com forum. It is unlikely that many if any homebrewers have done what you are considering doing (combine the output of up to 5 brew sessions into one fermenter). I have brewed for almost 30 years...

    Microbrewery ideas. Need help Good brewers!

    How do you plan to make money from your beer? Will you have a tap room or brewpub? Sell kegs to local bars and restaurants? Can or bottle for retail sales?

    Which homebrewing package is more accurate?

    Wildly different would be the case if you made 3 beers which exhibited the exact estimates of OG, FG, IBUs, and SRM that each software package predicted and you could tell them apart. My guess is you couldn't. I know I couldn't. I still use BS2 and have no experience with the other two but I...

    Seems like many are returning to home brewing....

    That is the equivalent of a boater saying I wish I had less horsepower.

    Favorite Tequila

    It's alive it's alive! I second the Don Julio Anejo as the tequila I like to keep on hand for sippin. I need to try the 70 Anejo one of these days. For frozen Bacardi-mix margaritas Hornitos blanco or heck even Kirklands, which is produced by Cielo IIRC, will do.

    A brewday without sanitation

    Was the pseudo-Starsan used to "sanitize" your fermenter?
