oops, maybe I missed it. I looked from my iphone.. maybe that works differently?

You can either use a picture, or a glass (choose the shape) that is colored according to the SRM you've defined for that beer. Below is my tap list right now. I have the cheapest homebrewer version of the app. It doesn't look like it supports IOS... I just searched the App Store and Taplist...

I understand wanting to brew with the raw ingredients. But I've used this with great success (in my mind lol). I used 1/2 tsp in a 5g batch of IPA. Identifiable pine there. I would not use more until you've made a test batch. These extracts can get out control quickly lol.

Thanks. Yes, I did see that thread. It seems that PGA is an improved for of KreamyX. Not sure. Anyway, I've got PGA coming any day now. The reason I need it: I've been replacing dry-hopping with terpenes (https://abstraxhops.com/collections/optimized-hop-extracts). I inject them into...

has anyone added it to increase head retention?

I've got an 5g keg of IPA with 3 mL of Abstrax Omni Centennial and 8 mL of Chinook. This is commercial quality now. Aroma and flavor are off the charts. It was already a pretty good beer, but now... 11 out of 10.

I could listen to you speak about anything, at any length. I'm all ears buddy. Don't think that times have changed. They have not - you have. Your sentiment was spoken by ancients for the same reason: as we get older, wizened, the world appears different to us, but it's not. Yes, tech...

If you're looking to get a piney flavor in your beer (IPA!), add 1/2 tsp of this to 5g. It will be in the aroma and flavor. Fairly subtle, but recognizable at this amount. In the future, I might experiment with adding spruce into my boil, but this sure worked without the risk. (yes, I know...

I add it after the initial yeast poops out. It might worked great from A->Z, but you'll have to find out on your own.

Lalvin K1V-1116. It's considered a wine yeast, but does ferment maltotriose. I have it in a 16% stout right this minute. It will go higher. It's my goto high-grav finishing yeast - and a bonus, it's dry and super cheap (less than $1 per packet here https://a.co/d/eKNFYaE). consider adding a...

There are some interesting stories in here. Very subtle and readable. 15-30 min per story. The first one was surprising violent in a cormac mcCarthy way, but then others just interesting situations that get your mind thinkin' https://a.co/d/bBuJO4T

That's nuts. Looks like the sky is full of diamonds there. But "magnanimity"... But yea. There is a term in astronomy called the Bortle Scale. It indicates how bright the local light interference is. Because of the way our eyes slowly adapt to light, and similarly the way astrophotography...

Did you read the intro? If so, you know you're on the waiting list until June.

Because, nobody knows what a gruit is, so I can throw all sorts of stuff in there.

In. I'll take the gruit again.

happy friday. this one always makes me laugh. maybe it's not supposed to be funny, not sure. "step inside my hyundai".

My dad liked the singer songwriters, Jim Croce, Harry Chapin, etc. So that's what formed me in the 70's. I still really like the storytellers. I guess the acorn doesn't fall far from the oak. (I had a crush on janis of course).

I did have a gilbert chemistry set. The only thing I remember making with it was caramel (put sugar in test tube, light Bunsen burner, melt). But this thing below... I had no idea it even existed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilbert_U-238_Atomic_Energy_Laboratory# (btw, anyone wanting to...

yea that's what I figured.

Good thread. Sadly, I have so much to say I realize I should just not do it at all. I have a lot.
