    There is adhesive on it. I'll let u know how they are after we get the design down and I'm ready. I'm not doing a lot that way because I want them as more of a keepsake

    Show Us Your Label

    I'll show him what you said. Overall I'm pleased. I don't have a pattern. I'm only labeling a six pack or two of each beer I make so I won't mind cutting them. I'm a noob but I want to keep one of each kind unopened for years just for keepsake. My business deals with a local print shop so I can...

    It did turn into to beer. A little darker than expected but I guess that's extract for ya? Seemed to have an after taste but I don't know how to explain it. It was good though and it felt awesome to drink my own beer. I had 2 of the kits so last Saturday I brewed up the second batch. Boiled a...

    I Wish Someone told me before I started homebrewing...

    +1... actually I'll be 21 on Jan 26th. My first brew should be ready to drink the weekend following my Birthday! I wish somebody had told me how addicting homebrewing is. I need to get more bottles so I can get a pipeline started.:)

    I just wanted to follow up and say I brewed my first beer. On Thursday I made a starter. Thanks again for the tips. Everything took off well. Friday afternoon I sanitized a food grade bucket and the turkey lifter for my new fryer. Added 2.5 gal of water and placed the hook in the water then put...

    Star San quick conversion chart. Not so much a question

    I'm not sure if this is the place I should put this but I built a chart showing amount of Star San for a given amount of water. I have a 32 oz spray bottle so I went down to 16 oz of water. I use a baby medicine syringe to measure small volumes of Star San. Hope this helps those of you that...

    Yeast starter - should I pitch entire thing or just yeast sediment?

    Nothing I can do will bring water to boil on my stove... advice?

    Okay so I didn't think that through. That's why I'm new to this and should keep my comments to myself

    Nothing I can do will bring water to boil on my stove... advice?

    I agree with the turkey fryer. Although your not supposed to use them indoors it's not like your heating veg or peanut oil. If your comfortable with it and have a hard floor I would use it inside. 32 qt is plenty big enough of a pot to not have to worry about a boil over. Just bought a turkey...

    So I created a yeast starter about 1 hr ago. I boiled 4 cups of water. Took off burner. Added 1/2 cup of the wheat LME in my kit from NB. Brought back to a boil for 10 min. Gave cold water bath down to 78*F in about 5 or so min. Pitched 1010 Wyeast smack pack. I know everything was sanitized...
