Same as my user name. Also, they released an official native app last week. You can include pictures now!

Thoughts on brewing a 4 gallon batch of beer, letting it ferment, then at the end of primary adding a gallon of apple cider? I would let the cider ferment out as well. Was thinking of mashing the beer high, like 158F to go for a malty brew. Then, if the cider drys it out, I won't end up...

Yeah, I may just pull the trigger on that green powder coated next week. Same thickness, etc. so I feel good about it.

Free and easy to learn! Yeah, I have a 2 year old, so stability is important. The more I think this through though, I think if I put some weight on the small end, then that will make it more stable. And we're just really careful. The kid's not running around while I'm using this. I think...

Just got a bag of nibs. Man.... They taste terrible! People put these in beer? Anyway... What's a good amount to add to secondary in an Imperial (8.3%) stout? I was thinking the whole 8 oz but I see people are having luck with 4?

Jesus! Umm...... You win/lock thread? Haha... OK, i'll try to follow that.... That's the biggest brew beard I have ever had in my life. :mad:

Saw the link for the Wallace stand a few weeks ago, but just stumbled on this thread yesterday. Fantastic info guys! After finding the Wallace page, I went straight to Google Sketchup. I want to use the slotted angle iron to create a 4-tier system to help my 87-year old lower back. I also...

Priceless! Haha....

That's the spirit, man! Glad things are looking up!

I've got this rockin' right now: Punk'toberfest! I've tried making my own spice mixture before and it comes out terribly imbalanced. So this year I'm trying good ol' McCormick's premixed pie spice. I used the bare minimum of actual pumpkin this year, 1) because it's hard to find, and 2)...

Very cool, Paulie. Excellent! (Did you use a steam beer/Cali common for the base?)

Any updates on what is a good amount of PB powder to use in a stout? Spring House, a local brewery makes an AMAZING chocolate peanut butter stout. It's a deceptive 8% and he uses powder. It is incredible. Unfortunately, he only serves it on nitro, so it doesn't travel well in a growler. You see...

For my pumpkin ale that I made with an Oktoberfest base: Punk'toberfest!!! :rockin: :ban: :mug:

Amazing, XJ. I love vector art on labels. Bleeding Cowboys is all over the place... Guilty of overusing it on my stuff too.

Make that pipeline your bitch! I have a lot of bullets in the holster right now, so taking a few growlers to my hockey games for PLBs (parking lot beers) or taking some to homebrew club meetings is never a problem.

I usually do an Xmas themed beer that I bottle and go ALL out on bottle design and such. This year will be my 5th, so I think I'm going off the grid and surprising people with.... Caribbean Pirate Stout! http://www.dubbeldachs.com/recipes_piratestout.htm It's just crazy enough to work...

Great to hear, shohog! Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be making it this year... But will use the Carapils in the future.

Metro is not a pub unfortunately... Haymarket is, and was AWESOME. Great beers and food.

Beer was really good... Unfortunately I had just eaten at Goose Island. The pizza smelled amazing! You can't buy buy the slice at the bar, or I would have tried it. DISCLAIMER: 90% of those 37 beers were 1-4 oz. sampler sizes!

Looks like I tried 37 beers, 2 meads, and a cider in under 60 hours or so. Haymarket Brewery Speakerswagon Pilsner Pink Sock Monkey Raspberry Wheat Oscar's Pardon Belgian Pale Ale Mathias Double IPA The Defender Imperial Stout Indignant Bourbon Barrel Imperial Stout Lucy's Tripel Mo-Jo Dubbel...
