    No yeast, no headaches? Line from tv...

    There are so many inaccuracy's I found watching this show...I guess it was entertaining- but I just had to quit watching it, like many of the other mostly faked reality shows. That American Brewer was an awesome show (Dogfish Head), but Discovery canceled that. I dunno...I find the premise of...

    Funny $h;t dad does.. Or mom... Or me... Or...

    Jesus Christo. Aint worth much, perhaps one of those 'have to be there' things...but dad tends to get affixed on a word of the day for about a month straight. This months word has been 'bureaucracy'. ****, not sure how much more I can take, but everything wrong no matter what, is a result of...

    Guess what I am drinking

    Ill identify with the coffee maker experience...had a built in unit. Wasnt worth the sales tax. At risk of getting off on a tangent/rant, this whole moving american manufacturing abroad has turned into the dogs dinner. I couldn't be more displeased.

    This is why I brew alone

    As your friendly plumber, dry firing sucks :D Something I'd recommend, seeing you have to replace the element anyways, is going to your local plumbing supply house and getting an Incoloy type element. They're only a few bucks more, but they'll tolerate dry firing for the most part.

    March 809 Motor Capacitor/Disassembly

    Alright, it's probably an issue with one of the windings, or the bearings. Not much to go wrong with an induction motor. I'd check the resistance on the start winding or see if its shorted to the motor frame.

    March 809 Motor Capacitor/Disassembly

    I doubt this motor has a starting capacitor, given its size. Curious, does this motor have replaceable brushes?

    Got laid off today.

    Sorry to hear brother. I'm a plumber. I feel us skilled trades are always kinda on the frontline of the economy. I don't think Ive had a 40hr week since March. I work for my dad's business of 20yrs and man, I miss the good ol days when we had more work than we knew what to do with. Always 2...

    Amount of beer low...

    Simple answer- I dont see your beer being noticeably affected in terms of flavor with the amount of volume difference youre talking (all other variables not an issue), only the color. Since it's a dark beer I don't seen this being an issue. Takes more than liquid volume to eff a extract beer up.

    We tasted our first batch...

    Im curious to know what the boil volume was..
