I've spent so many evenings playing Apples to Apples or CAH that I can't stand to even think of playing either one of them again. I'll admit, it's probably just me though. Somehow others never seem to tire of them.

Don't drink and brew. You're more likely to miss a step in the instructions.

Other than the fact Drano could probably kill you if you don't get it all cleaned out?

At least if she learns that lesson early she won't be making any "is my first batch ruined" threads. :-)

I'm no expert but I'm thinking there aren't a lot of Home Depot's in Madrid and if there are they probably don't accept USD as payment :-)

Did you squeeze the bag after you pulled it? Odds are there was a gallon or more of high sugar wort still in the bag. If you did, it's probably the crush just like RM-MN suggests.

US-05 and Wyeast 1056 are actually the same yeast just in different packages. You'll get more cells for less money with US-05 but they should both work out the same in the end.

Odds are it'll compress into the bottom quite a bit. You've probably had the exact same thing happen in your bucket fermentors and just not been able to see it.

Sorry I meant Centennial Blonde but just typed Cream of Three Crops.... It's still Notty :-)

If you're doing Biermuncher's Cream of Three Crops, he suggests Nottingham, there might be a liquid equivalent that I don't know about but I'd just use the dry yeast.

I have super hard water at home (I don't have the stats but it would clog up shower heads and faucet aerators about once a month) I had a whole house tankless water heater completely clog up in less than 5 years. I'd suggest putting in the softener just to protect the hardware.

40 BBL to start? You don't screw around do you? Best of luck!

Since someone is going to ask: What are the dimensions of the kettle? Most importantly the Radius. Boil off is dependent on the surface area not the total volume so it's hard for anyone else to say "with the same size pot my boil off is X" without knowing the surface area of yours. Other...

How do you mark it? Do you just use a basic sharpie or something else? I'm probably just overthinking the not wanting Sharpie ink in my beer and should just make a gauge stick with a hunk of PVC and a Sharpie.

I'm going to ask the obvious question... why didn't you just measure the volume?

I can't comment on the chemistry questions but my question is how would you mix in the beer and water to get a good homogeneous mixture without aerating the crap out of it? People have enough problems getting a good mixture when they topping off the fermenter when doing partial boils and...

I picked up an 18 gallon rope handled tote for mine at Home Depot for less than $5 a month or so ago. It worked just fine. Although it's a bit of a pain to move around with all the water in it solo.

Since you're going to cut holes in it anyway it's not like it's going to be stock anymore. I'd probably strip it and have it chromed along with anything else on it that needs rechroming (handle, hinges etc?). I say make it look how you want it to look and don't worry too much about how someone...

This was a pretty interesting thread that covered the issues for one member who started a nano. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f14/i-went-pro-what-actually-takes-do-so-386476/ I couldn't tell you where in the thread but there's a link to a site that lists legal issues with opening a brewery in...

HP ships their toner cartridges in something similar. Probably not the most helpful comment but it adds a search term for your hunt.
