I read over that really quickly and it did clear up quite a few things (first stop). I have to wait on my freezer set-up (problem with electrical outlets) so 2 wks shouldn't be a problem, i'd appreciate it. Also, i'm thinking the best way for me to learn would be to start a mash at the...

Ok, so i got a Traditional Bock and an Oktoberfest coming up to be brewed. I know that with the malts you get now it isn't as important as it use to be. However, i like the fact that it will help develop the malt profile and give the beer the depth i love. I've never brewed by decoction but...

St. peters organic (was a gift).......... makes me want to puke.......... oh and gave me a migraine for some odd ass reason.....

i've made plenty of beer bread (i try to make 1 loaf per new beer i make, so far the more flavor the better the bread) haven't used brewers yeast to make bread yet. It shouldn't be that far from normal bread bakers use to get their yeast from brewers..... The guys on basic brewing radio did a...

lol, it was more of a joke. I know that british brewers do adjunct there beer quite often, but the amount i added was quite a lot... 1/5 pounds candi sugar and 1/2 lb DME... eh well smells great tastes great see how it goes.... heh...

So, around thanksgiving '07 i went and bought grain for an irish red and a nut brown. I brewed the Irish Red but New years Eve i dislocated my knee. I didn't clean the keggle and needless to say it got a nice soaking when i got back to it. Anyway, I didn't get to brew till yesterday. Came out...

I was contemplating that too, the residual flavors from the O-fest carrying over. The interesting thing is that a majority of the malts are the same and the same with the hops, that's what led me to just pitching on the cake.... Though having them primary and lagering at the same time is...

That's ok, wanna know something? Home Depots policy on loss prevention is "let it go" meaning once you're outside they store they really won't go after you. Someone that worked at Home Depot told me about a guy that came in, swiped 3 weed eaters then came back in and swiped 3 more and they...

Ok, So i have an Oktoberfest and a Bock ready to brew sometime and to save money (of course) i grabbed 1 bavarian yeast pack. Now I was thinking Make a starter and pour half into the oktoberfest then kick up the starter with a little more DME and pitch into the Bock. This to me seems like way...

I can't say i seriously like guinness draught, it's better than a lot of mainstream beers but not the best.... (my brew partner would seriously contest this) If i want a guinness, or a stout from the grocery (as i can't get good **** here), i'll drink a guinness EXTRA stout, i allow it to...

No that'd be deemed racist... :D :p is there an echo in here?

Stoned people shouldn't throw houses, they might throw out their back.

There are electronic bristle boards but there's downsides to them... 1) they count bounce-outs 2) the divided segments increase bounce-outs 3) low durability 4) take the fun out of scoring it yourself damnit i wanna play now..........

LOL, hey has anyone tried reusing the pop-off bud bottles?

That's interesting, the only time i have dropped and broken a bottle (empty thank god) was last week when i was cleaning and delabeling a bunch. some fell off the tray and i caught three a missed the last (sam adams), it hit the floor and shattered right out. I have however dropped bottles...
