Well I have been brewing for about a year now. Dad started doing wine and im not a huge fan of wine so I started doing beer. Turned out I wasnt half bad, as many new home brewers reactions are. Then it was all down hill from there. But now that I can actually buy craft beers my brewing...

Just turned 21 today. Merry Christmas to everyone, and I wish you all a Happy New Year. Cheers :mug:

If anything the ride would oxygenated the starter, if you don't have an air lock on. Kind of new as well so I could be wrong, but bubbling is really just the first stages of fermentation. you could have pushed out the Co2 sitting on top causing the pressure to equal out. Sure it will be fine...

What are the demensions on the drip tray?

I know im gonna get bashed for this, but I am sippin on the bud lite. Broke abd at a friend party cant beat $12 a case. Feel like im drinking water, if you live in NC save a fellow brewwer.

So I wanted to post something that newbies to kegging could look at and vets could add to. Started with a Kenmore freezer from Sears, got it financed with no interest for 6 months. $402. Added a wood collar, just 2x4s with a coat of primer (had some left over spray killz) and a coat of white...

Okay so just put this on the keg today. Got a solid FG bringing the abv to 6.61%. Tasted a bit of it and the cinnamon did not come through at all, but the vanilla, chocolate and toasty flavors were dead on. Body is a little lacking, wondering how it will taste carbed and chilled. Will get...

brewing a SNPA clone. Hope it will turn out well.

Thanks I will look those up, and I think I may still have a prowler at my parents house from football.

Oh I know I can make time. Just would prefer to workout at home. Or run outside rather than a treadmill. But maybe I could start a routine and do a mix of both. Just trying to get suggestions on decent workouts to get back on the horse and still enjoy great beer.

Oh no, not looking to do that. Just want to cut some of the fat off, and stay healthy. I have been super busy lately, with the second year of my IT business coming to a close, buying a new house, and getting a dog, I don't have much time to go to a gym (unless I wake up at like 4 in the morning...

Not to sound like a little bitch, but I'm sure I'm not the only one. As my passion for home brewing grows, so does my gut. Was wondering if any of you had a workout/diet that keeps the belly off. Or are we all just doomed to brandish the mark of the brewer (beer gut).

It may be closer to that. 1.009 I just did a quick test. Was being rushed, christmas shopping ughhh. I will get some more acurate numbers in a few weeks.

Okay geat. Im thinking im having attenuation issues or my hydrometer is just reading funky because of all the added sugars, fg os at 1.002 but the beer is not thin at all.

Not really sure how to calc any of those bit the abv. Does beersmith run a pre brew estimation based on grains and hops? Been wanting to get it anyways.

Racking to secondary it was already tasted like a young chocolate. Im hoping racking on top of the vanilla and cinnimon will really kick off the gram and mallo flavors.

Will let you guys know how it turns out. I'm excited. I just got some new kegging equipment and will be building a keezer next weekend. Gonna let this one slow carb in the keg though.
