    5.5 amp drill for my Malt mill?

    Hi all! I asked for a bunch of tools for Christmas and got one of these from my Dad. I am wondering if I can use it on my malt mill or if I'd burn up the motor. If it's not a good 'engine' for my malt mill, I'd love suggestions. I received 2 drills for Christmas and one is going back- so...

    Are you aerating throughout fermentation? I think I read in the U1 Clone thread that they were doing it but it is counter to what I have read. Thought you aren't supposed to introduce oxygen after fermentation.

    I spoke to an old wine maker and his words (not mine): 'Oh hell- I seen EC1118 chew through some of the most stuck ferments out there. That s#!+ will tear through anything' He wasn;t refering to this particular brew- just a general statement. He works for a champagne house now and has been...

    Gotta Girlie Beer Recipe?

    This is why I don't buy Dr Pepper 10 or whatever it's called. I think the comercials are hilarious. Yeah they make me laugh and are entertaining which is the point the advertisers were trying to make but at the same time I don't like the message. D***it- I answered the question already. Why...

    My understanding is it is more specific to Dry Yeast- Check this response on Danstar's site

    Gotta Girlie Beer Recipe?

    No Worries- it's 5 gallons into the keg. I usually shoot for about 5.5 into the fermentor. It's pretty clean and the hops don't come through very much. If she likes fruity beers, this is a win. Go for at least the 10 prickly pears. I am going to start using this recipe to keep a fruit beer on...

    brewery tour 2013

    Hit Pizza Port in Carlsbad- not for the tour, go for the beer and pizza. They are great. If you're driving all the way to Portland then hit Calapooia Brewing. It's off the 5. There are a ton of places in Oregon- Hair of the Dog and Giant were really fun when my wife and I went.

    Damn good call. I read through all 40 some odd pages and now am really considering this one. On the fence because its a pricey and long term endeavor that I am not sure a 3 yr old AG brewer can pull off. I'm willing to give it a go but need a bit to work up the nerve. You've inspired me. Keep us...

    Gotta Girlie Beer Recipe?

    The one on the left is a prickly pear wheat. I wouldn't call it girly because my wife and I fight over who gets the last pint. I concede because I love her but hate because that beer is awesome! I agree there's no one beer for one demographic.
