    La fin du monde clone.

    I've done a very good one, IMO. Here is the recipe, along with a link to pics on page 2. You need the Wyeast 3864-PC Canadian/Belgian strain, which is a limited edition.

    The world is f'd up: A rant

    People who flick their cigarette butts out the window onto the street or dump ashtrays out in parking lots. These people should be shot dead. Cigarette filters are made of cellulose acetate, a form of plastic. Cigarette butts ar NOT biodegradable and can remain in the environment as long as...

    Can You Brew It recipe for Flossmoor Station Pullman Brown

    Wonderful, full bodied, a bit chocolaty and a bit roasty, but not overpowering in either departments. It's considered a brown porter. Matt said in the interview that the use a mix of Golden Promise and domestic 2-row.

    Anyone brewed a good Alt lately?

    I brewed a 5gal. batch of Alt with a recipe that, it turns out, is pretty similar to Kai's and it turned very good. I'm thinking his is pretty "authentic". I'm down to ~2 gals of mine and am seriously thinking of brewing a 10 gal. batch in a couple of weeks. 94% Munich Malt 5% CaraMunich II...

    Surly Furious clone

    Golden Promise is my favorite base malt and will work well for this. A group of us locals brewed enough of the BYO Surly clone to fill a 55 gal. bourbon barrel. We filled it about a month ago and will let it go for a few months. We'll individually dry hop after we draw our portions. Northern...

    Starting a HomeBrew Club

    Yes, our club got started b/c the local brewpub really wanted to reach out and do something with local homebrewers. Our current President and Communications officer worked closely with the Head Brewer and brewpub's manager and got things rolling. I'd start by contacting the micro and see if...

    Looking for a clean, floculating ale yeast!

    Another vote for WLP007. One of my top three favorite yeasts.

    CO2 in Libya???

    What about someplace that carries welding supplies? Certainly they weld metal in Libya.

    New bad lot of Nottingham yeast ???

    As long as you didn't toss the Campden in at the same time, you're good. I had the same worry and after doing some research found that Campdens break down and do their thing in a very short time. Plus, you're boiling your wort, so no worries. I also learned to always rehydrate dry yeast for...

    My guitar teacher thinks I'm the village idiot.

    If it'll make you feel any better, neither could B.B. King. If you ever watch him play, you'll notice he never plays and sings at the same time. Not that any of you ax-hacks will ever come close to playing like B.B.!:D

    I found this on the side of the road. Now what?

    I know someone who uses one as his HLT.

    my buddy's demon child

    This is one of my BIG personal pet peeves. If you can't control your brats in my personal space, then I'll do the job for you. And it won't be pretty. Whether or not I've ever had kids is not relevant to the argument. Producing kids is nothing unique or special. People have been doing it...
