Next time I think we'll make the flour into a slurry like you would for soup. After we strained the wort we didn't find the dough and nothing bobbed up to the surface, so I guess they broke apart.

Our sample was taken directly after pouring into the bucket and before the yeast. The color of what we brewed held up to a class of Widmer's hef was extremely close. The cloudiness was a bit heavier then the Widmer, but we expect it to fall into trub and are hoping the flour will retain a very...

I am trying to lock in a Widmer Hefeweizen recipe and after looking at a few different ideas and drinking their beer... We decided to go with a slightly changed version of Saccharomyces's partial mash recipe! Here is exactly what we did: 1lb Munich 0.25lb Crystal 40 5lbs Wheat DME...

I took a brewery tour from Redhook again (free sampling class and beer for $1) and the guide mentioned that they also brew for Kona! As I was walking back to the car I found a pair of the employees from the brew side smoking outside. They said that they add coconut extract to whirlpool... who...

It's about $16 to ship a keg to me so that's $18 a keg he wants for shipping, using his $37.50 a keg (if you buy 12) that's $55.50 a keg for an un-tested, dirty keg that I may have to rebuild. If you look at what shipping cost Keg Connections and subtract that from the per keg price I ended...

That $9.95 keg turns into a $41.59 keg once you add in shipping and a lid. $41.59 for a loose handled, dirty keg that you may have to rebuild (costs about $20 more) is a total ripoff. For an extra $9.16 you can get what I bought, a cleaned, tested, strong handled keg with an extra set of O-rings...

Well the 10 kegs shipped yesterday! It only took Keg Connections 2 business days to get them cleaned and wrapped up and shipped off, not to shabby. I can imagine that a 10 keg order is a bit of a PITA, it would take a day just to clean and test 10 kegs. UPS appears to be taking the...

Done and done, whole oz packet going in... I figure my nose will inhale the other .06 worth of AAU when I open the packet.

Good enough for me .. ~ thanks!

My hops should be 1oz @ 9.3% alpha but the hops I have are 9.9% @ 1oz I know it's close enough, but I want it perfect. Whats the formula to correct this so I can weight out the right amount?

All the power of searching works again!.. Thanks for the alcohol tip, worked like a charm.

I wanna watch yeast porn! But, I am scared to skunk my beer, so I leave it in opaque buckets and hide them in a dark closet. What happens in the closet stays in the closet. The sounds and smells that come out of there disturb the wife and the dog, but the yeasts' secret is safe with me. In...

Well Keg Connections is overwhelmingly the the "people's choice" it's seems. I just ordered 10 of their kegs at $507.45 (*cough*). Here's hoping their are as nice as they say! I will add photo's of the in's and out's of each keg and let you all know how it all turns out. Thanks again for the...

Unless they started making pin locks a 1/2 inch skinnier, they wont fit in my kegzer.

I can deal with small dents, dings, scratches and loose handles.. however broken handles I can't fix and I have yet to see a replacement handle for sale (money to made there).

There are more people that sells kegs online.. but the 3 listed are the 3 that had the best perceived bang for the buck out of about 12 that still had kegs. If anyone knows where else I should buy I would be very interested. I only used 4 kegs as an example to keep prices fair between the...

I found that the sediment on the bottom of my bottles was not the nice tasty unfiltered cloudiness I wanted to taste in my beer, but rather a nasty funky tasting sediment.. Not sure I'd want that all over the side of the beer I was trying to pour out. Also, like Topher mentioned, I doubt your...

I cut out the redundant info and copied 3 different web-store's info on their 5gal ball locks. I also included their after shipping price on 4 kegs from each site to get the total cost. Below the cost I have included what I see as the pros and cons of each deal. All of the sites list their kegs...

Just Started Kegging and need 7 more ball locks. My LHBS is sold out so feel free to rake me over the coals! That said I can get nice quality kegs sent to my house for $45. I could really use one this weekend. :(

In the beersmith install folder is an xml document titled "Res". Inside there is frame positions and sizes... someone with more time then I could alter that file to fit your screen better or even make it adjustable. Seems like it would be a simple request on their forum?
