    Kegs eventually running out?

    I was thinking earlier today that If most people are using Pepsi/coke kegs eventually they will be very tricky to find because they are no longer being made, and the rise in popularity of brewing. The only other option I can see is paying for those new corny kegs that I believe are like 120$. In...

    crisp clear taste

    I see this guy at the bar who gets a full glass of ice and pours coors light into it. To each his own I guess

    Stout Carbonation Time at Room Temp Question

    I don't think your going to find a chart or formula on this sort of thing because there are lots of factors at play. I have never had a beer not carb up eventually and I'm not entirely sure why some carb up faster than others. New brewers (myself included) want definite answers and time frames...

    How do you name your original recipes?

    Since I'm never really motivated to label my beers they never really get named. Plus mostly been doing other peoples recipes so it doesn't feel right to name them. I did do a stout that I had to stick a sanitized arm into and I remember how sticky my arm was hence the name "sticky arm stout". I...

    What is the WORST beer you have ever had?

    One time in college I was at a party and was pretty drunk. I walk through the party and a big group of friends start chanting my name and try to get me to chug a corona. Of course I grab the bottle and commence chugging. About halfway through the taste hits me and I immediately run outside and...

    Bringing homebrewing up in a job interview

    Well didn't the job because "they decided to pursue a candidate with more experience". So who knows if it made a good impression or not. How's a man supposed to get experience when everyone keeps on telling him that he doesn't have enough... Sigh. Me and my freshly filled keg of wheat stout will...

    Bringing homebrewing up in a job interview

    At a job interview I brought up that I home-brew when they asked about my hobbies. The job was an associate scientist in a lab so I tried my best to show how much chemistry and biology was involved in the process. Looking back I'm thinking that it might have been a bad idea because to some...

    Bud Light Platinum 6.0% abv

    Read online somewhere that is was just brewed with more corn to raise the alcohol and "give it more flavor". For some reason I see this one becoming very popular because of the blue bottles.

    Woot! First brew is in bottles... now trying my hand at that Apfelwein

    Seriously tho the night I tapped the keg had a few buddies over to go out later that night. We prolly drank bout a third of the keg. Me and the girlfriend had a huge fight over nothing and found the buddies all scattered around town in the morning.

    Woot! First brew is in bottles... now trying my hand at that Apfelwein

    Just tapped a keg of it the other day. Takes a little getting used to but it's great. Also don't let your girlfriend drink more than two glasses the first time because she most likely will end up getting drunk and starting a fight. It sneaks up on you like that.

    Pressure dropping

    Hello all Just fine tuning my legging set up. I set my keg to 10 psi but it seems as I drink the keg the regulator is showing a drop of pressure. Usually a small drop but enough to get me to readjust it. My very uneducated guess is that it's due to temperature fluctuations inside but can anyone...

    How much do you drink?

    I am mostly a social drinker I guess. Very rarely will i be drinking by myself. That being said when people are around or I am at the bar it's anywhere from 1 beer a night to upwards of 10 on some weekend nights. I would say this happens probably on average four nights a week. Never been much of...

    Lazy?

    Solution to everyone's bottling problems... Invite a few friends over, put on some music, crack a few beers, and turn it into an activity. On Friday i had 5 helpers and bottled a batch real quick. I didnt cap a single bottle and the only work i did was fill up about 12 bottles. My buddies seem...

    Great Beer names

    When bottleing my stout i had to stick my sanitized hand to tighten the spigot. I remeber how sticky my arm was afterward hence the name Sticky Arm Stout.
