    Best price on ordering hop pellets online?

    Yakima Valley is where I usually find the best deals. I usually am not looking for specific hops and will go with what is on sale. Sometimes they do 8 oz or 16 oz package deals that are priced really well.

    Using toasted coconut?

    It may not hurt, soak it in vodka or something. However, I think most of the time you are safe to not sanitize. I know with brewing sanitation is key, but sometimes we go overboard in sanitation.

    Using toasted coconut?

    I added 2 bags to the mash for my last stout. Had nice subbtle taste and aroma. I recommend trying it out with your next stout. I haven't tried adding it to the boil or fermenter.

    Equipment needed to setup small commercial tea microbrewery

    Not trying to sound mean, but you are no where near ready to start this venture. Have you even made tea before?

    Too Many Brands On The Shelf

    Distribution fees seem to be the killer. A local brewery here that has canning capabilities sells 6 packs for $8 at the brewery. They are $11 plus at the grocery store. No way I am paying that much. And the sad thing is the local beers are always more expensive than out of state craft beer.

    Too cold for wort chiller?

    I would have thought houses on Fort Belvoir, VA would have had freeze proof hose bibs as well. Can get pretty cold here to. At the time, I didn't know what to look for.

    Using toasted coconut?

    I don't know the difference. I'll have to look back in my recipe book when I get a chance, but I think I used 2 or 3 bags in a 5 gallon batch. Turned out pretty well in my opinion. Kook Brown I said pretty good. I used to love on Oahu, and loved going to a Kona Brewing Pub in Kanehoe.

    Too cold for wort chiller?

    I would say no. Not a plumbing expert, but I had a similiar situation happen and it caused a pipe to rupture. I don't think the hose bib was freeze proof and it caused a pipe to rupture inside our house. Luckily we were living on post at Fort Belvoir on Virginia and the housing office forgot...

    Using toasted coconut?

    I've had good luck adding it into the mash with some stouts. I use the bagged shredded coconut you find in baking section. I don't toast it though.

    Brewing with Capsicum (Sweet Peppers)

    Interesting! Is sanitizing the peppers really necessary though since they will be getting boiled?

    What does Automated Brewing mean to you?

    When I think of automated; I think of PID's, BCS or other controllers that turn stuff on or off and control processes. RIMS and HERMS in my opinion is not something that is automated unless it is being controlled by a PID, BCS or other controller it doesn't automatically maintain the...
