Hmm, ehhhh, well..... As someone that's around a lot of automation every day, I'd be kind of the opposite. In a production environment the machines are bullet proof, the visions systems nail their jobs, etc. On the road is so dynamic I think I'd not chance it. On a clear, sunny day sure...

I'm really interested in the results but haven't made enough of them to participate. Please do share them afterwards, of course.

Would have to see it to know what to think. The baby might have been enjoying it.

Hmm! My next brew was going to have Mosaic, Superdelic and Nectaron. At the time it sounded like a fun combination. I would not like any diesel in this beer however (I'm good with it in some beers, but not this one). What would be a good sub? I wondered about Idaho 7 perhaps, or of course...

I always put a Wilser bag in my pipe, it keeps practically all of the grain that got turned into powder contained. And it's a lot easier to clean than a Brew Bag since it's not so stiff. It means another thing to buy but it works well and might be a consideration. I go with the Brew Bag when I...

No love for an American Brown Ale! Bobby please sign me up for A0. Great idea, thanks for doing this!

Not that anyone here would doubt your expertise, but this is absolutely true. I've made a few beers recently where I haven't intentionally experimented with this, but have slowly transformed from my old methods (chuck in the dry hops whenever I feel like it including as early as high krausen)...

Very similar for me. Grab a sample of the wort towards the end of mashing (an hour or so in, when I'm back to wrap up mashing and work on starting a boil). Use a shot glass and let it sit a minute, then pour it into another shot glass that lives in the cold beer frig. Let it sit while I get the...

Same. I've put it on 3 PC's now, and along with "Start11" to move my taskbar to the left and do a few other things, it's been fine. I don't love the "style" and icon spacing and such, but some of those I've hacked through the registry. For some reason they've felt the need to spread everything...

The idea is that for RO there is no meaningful pH, and you don't need to worry about it. The slight acid addition I know was certainly haggled about and recommended here a long while ago - I add 2.25ml of 10% per gallon based on those old conversations. Would also be curious if today's thinking...

Wow do they vary. $25 for 5lb in Twin Cities, MN (Linde's on E Hennepin).

Agreed that might actually be a use for them. I would never suggest them for beer, especially dark beer. Not enough resolution for mash #'s and the color of the wort messes with them as well and makes them hard to read. For Starsan it's basically clear and it's a bit of a binary "still acidic or...

I had to unsubscribe from NB altogether as well, and did so somewhat recently. I don't mind a weekly email pushing a few items and indicating that a few tings are on sale. But there were days I'd getting multiple emails from them and it became too much. If I remember right this was the "take it...

Except, if I was in a driverless Jag, I'd want to jump in the front seat and take it over and see how it handles.

Regarding yeast, maybe cool it down further i.e. into the 40's and for longer? Or add some biofine through the PRV hole and wait a few days before hopping? Have others tried the beers and had similar results? On the tiny chance that your own pallet has somehow changed.

I'm assembling some random bits to make an inline regulator to my pale ale, to hold it at ~ 12psi or so while I bump the regulator at the tank itself up to maybe 14 (ergo pressurizing the stout to that) and will slowly mess with it to see what I get. I know it won't be immediately in solution...

I totally would! With pilsner malt and lager yeast. Mind the Magnum IBU's of course and bias the majority of it to go in late, but agreed with what was mentioned - it actually has a nice taste and smell. I use it mostly for bittering, same with most people, but it can do more than just this...

CO2 here. Hmm, I should keep this on my radar though for future upgrades / options.

Thread bump! I'm working on drinking an Imperial Stout right now. It's in a frig at 12 psi. It's fully carbonated, it was force carbed last summer and held for 6 months in the basement. I checked psi before putting it in the frig and it was still at 15psi after all that time, so no leaks. I...

My "secondary" these days is a keg. I just started on an Imperial Stout that's been literally under the stairs for the last 6 months or so. I would think bottles can do the same thing as well, just mind any sediment when pouring.
