    Elder Scrolls Skyrim

    My first horse was attacked by a dragon not five minutes after I bought him. Horse ended up living, but the dragon died. Smithing is probably the only reason I don't have anywhere near 100,000 gold yet, but it's also the first skill I have gotten to 100. Looting more junk weapons and armor...

    Go All Grain or Go Home?

    I'm inventing my own internets for serious business.

    Elder Scrolls Skyrim

    I performed my first beheading two days ago. I was so proud.

    Elder Scrolls Skyrim

    I've already played over 30 hours on PC... (was off work until today, and wife out of town until Sunday evening; also... Mountain Dew) Love it. I don't think the combat is compelling (slightly moreso than past TES's), but the whole world is still so engrossing... Impressive graphics at max...

    Video Game Nerds, need your recommendation

    Fable 2 is a good game. But I did a lot of side stuff, and I know it took me over 20 hours.

    nothing in beer can hurt you?

    Thousands of years ago, when people first started brewing, they had no concept of sanitation and all of their fermenting was done "spontaneously." If they had any issues, it wasn't enough to make them stop brewing. If anything other than yeast gets in and takes hold, you're going to notice...

    nothing in beer can hurt you?

    The conventional wisdom is that nothing can grow or survive in beer that can make you sick. Alcohol, however, can hurt you.

    Vienna Lager at ale temps?

    That's what I was thinking... Something about "Mexican Steam Beer" doesn't sound appealing. Thanks.

    Vienna Lager at ale temps?

    A colleague decided for his first attempt at home brewing he was going to do a Negra Modelo clone from AHS. The yeast is Wyeast Bohemian Lager 2124. While I applaud his enthusiasm, it would have been nice if he had done some research first, he has no lagering equipment. It's cooling off...

    I'm done with brewing. All my beers taste like ****

    This reminds me of an LSAT logic problem. Bad water yields bad beer, so you can deduce that good beer means no bad water but not that good water yields good beer. The bulk of my brew water is spring water from Sam's Club in 4 gallon jugs and I occasionally top off with filtered tap water. I...

    Wort wont cool, what should I do?

    Try a cold water bath in a tub or sink if you don't have ice.

    Great story (and well written). Thanks for sharing.

    Breweries on Kickstarter

    Definitely, if it only took 35 to 45 thousand dollars to start a commercial brewery or brewpub, a lot of us would be doing it. But for getting some startup capital without sacrificing equity or cash flow, while getting the word out and building a sort of brand loyalty very early kickstarter...

    Breweries on Kickstarter

    Has anyone else used kickstarter to try to help out any microbreweries, or to fund their own? I've put in a few bucks for all of the ones I found actively fundraising now and a hop farm, although many of them don't look like they'll reach their fundraising goal. It seems like a good way to...
