    LME vs DME -- taste difference?

    I'm not sure, but apparently the answer to 'is there a taste difference' is 'go all grain'. Isn't learning to brew an evolution of skills? There are some very distinct advantages to using an LME or DME, especially when beginning since the all grain process looks to be rather daunting and more...

    What are you drinking now?

    kegged Muntons Cerveza. Thoroughly enjoying it even if it is a cheap LME kit :)

    So who's brewing this weekend?

    I'm out, was hoping to do a blonde this weekend but the new brew toys I wanted didn't show up in time. Another mid-week brew for me. Life is 'tough'!

    Can't get beer to force carb. Still taste flat.

    Maybe try not to hurry the process so much. Force carb'ing already cuts at least a week of waiting off and IME, that's a week less of the beer ageing and clearing.

    Pedantic Pronunciation...

    Is it trub or troob? I'm on the short u vowel club but I don't want to look like an idiot.

    Two kegs dedicated to cleaning?

    IIRC Starsan is acidic and it's not very nice to stainless steel. Is it possible to replace the pin locks with ball locks?

    No... just NO.

    The only thing glitter has ever been good for is decorating fish hooks, and even that is questionable.

    YACCQ - Yet Another Cold Crashing Question - Using Salt on Ice

    I've not seen it mentioned, but when making ice-cream most people add salt to the ice so the milk/cream is exposed to the right temps. Wouldn't adding salt to the ice bath make sense for cold crashing too?

    Cold Crashing

    When you use the keg to cold crash do you use fining gelatin in the fermenter before racking? ETA, Sorry, I found the answer on the main site. Apparently, fining is more efficient after crashing. FWIW - my wife has used fining for winemaking and I know that she never cold crashed that stuff.

    DIY Quick Carb

    Looks pretty straightforward, what's the specifications on the circulating pump?

    So who's brewing this weekend?

    Just making a Cerveza from LME, nothing too adventurous. Actually started the process on Wednesday but without good temp control, I've been doing a lot of baby sitting.

    (Total newbie) Fermentation chamber / ice cooler to avoid bugs?

    Is it possible to order a cooler online from Costco or Walmart and get it drop shipped? (aka in-store pickup)
