But at least you have a cool story to tell as to why your manicure looks like crap.

I hope this thread didn't come off as some tyrannical feminist thing. I was more just curious how many other women were out there and thought it might be fun to connect with some. Maybe it's because I am in Indiana and home brewing here while also not rare seems to be far less wide spread than...

NEVER!! Although we have a hazing policy that any man who crosses these sacred lines has to dress up and dance as a spice girl. ;) Is her twitter, Facebook, Blog name all "The Beer Fox"?

A happy Mom has happy kids. There is nothing wrong with taking time out and doing something you enjoy. *Warning feminist rant, even though I am not one, ahead* If a single Dad were to buy a kit and start brewing for a hobby everyone would think it's great. A women gets a hobby and we...

Eh a name is a name if the people are cool I can dig it. I like to embrace a little of my feminine side every once in a while.

I'm in Indiana (Indianapolis suburb to be exact). Nice to meet you! That sounds like an awesome birthday idea by the way.. I'll have to do that!

Don't be shy I don't bite usually and I've had all my shots incase I do. :)

That is awesome! I wonder if growing hops counts?

Depends.. if you ask him yes. Ask me, not so much. :)

Haha. :) So when you make a starter how do you measure the amount of yeast that has reproduced so you don't over pitch?

Oh oh oh I see. I missed that part (well forgot) about the 5 different yeasts. I had my head stuck in yeast washing. :)

People are too D*m* sensitive these days. Unless they are attacking women I would probably laugh.

*She* typically makes IPA, Tripels, Wheats ;)

Awesome I will check those out.

When I was at my lhbs the guy mentioned that he thought new homebrewers chronically underpitched. I asked if you could over pitch and he said yes but it's hard. Thoughts?

He said to make a 5 gallon batch and split it into 5-1 gallon jugs and then split the yeast. Am I confused or did you misread?

I've only used liquid yeast. I'll have to go look at the slant sticky because I don't even know what that is. I just learned the whole making starter thing, I think I am going to attempt to make a stir plate this week. Thanks :)

There was an article in our paper the other day that Indiana is about to get it's first female own and operated brewery. I can't wait to try it out.

I have wanted to try brewing for a long time but just hadn't found the time to teach myself. I am always teaching myself something, canning fruits and vegetables, sewing, quilting, woodworking etc. A friend of ours was growing hops and they were so awesome that I told my husband (HWSBO?) I...

I do have acrylic nails it's the only way I can keep my hands manicured. Even with those I break one a week because I'm doing some kind of crazy nongirly thing (woodworking, building things, hauling things for garden work). I like you would rather be outside and have always been a "tom boy"...
