Man...that's rough. I gotta say, though, everyone should have at least one corded drill around. I have 2 cordless dewalts (one is an XRP), a corded dewalt, and a corded hitachi hammerdrill. So unless all 4 of my batteries die and the power goes out, I'm set. If you're cash-strapped, then this...

This is true. Works like a charm. It's especially awesome in making it quiet.

Because orfy was drunk, and he wanted to spank you...and then ramble on about spanking you.

Word up to that. Entertaining as it may be to watch a bunch of grown men fight like 5-year-olds (and yes, the thread that prompted this reminder WAS entertaining), it's really not good form. Such is the internet, though---quasi-anonymity removes about half of people's inhibitions when it comes...

I fly with my boss in his Cessnas all the time (Skyhawk 172 XPII and Centurion P210). After being in the little 172 and staring into a mile-high wall of black that is a thunderstorm cell, and getting bounced around like a kite in a wind tunnel for 2 hours straight, getting on a big airliner is...

My airlock hasn't bubbled from the brett either, but it's certainly working in there.

I have some 1-gal apple juice jugs, and they have a convex dome like you said, but if you try real hard, you can get the bar to balance up there. I've done it tons of times. That having been said, I got the 5L erlenmeyer at my LBS for like $32. Worth every penny.

+1, +1. I had the same concern when I pitched it into a 1.022 FG BDSA. No activity for 6 weeks, or so I thought. But then ol' man ******-o-Chef assuaged my concerns...and I tried a sample, and it was awesomely funked-up.

OB is right. That quote is an instant classic, made of win, and encrusted with win, with just a bit of win dust sprinkled on top. Far as I'm concerned regarding that thread, while it was ridiculous for grown men to be acting like 5-year-olds, there's no denying that it was entertaining as...

Mine change color too, but they also changed color when I wasn't using a stirplate.

Not to disagree with you here or anything, because I'm a stirplate owner and advocate their use, but just because I'm a few beers in and I want to stir up the sh*t (like a stirplate stirring sh*t...call me a sh*t-stirplate! :D): judging your cell count by how "milky" it looks is no good! It...

The amount in 5.2 is not enough to turn a low- or medium-salt-level water into a water with "high salt content".

No, it's just phosphate buffers.

That's what I was going to say. Somehow I doubt that people have a vacuum in their headspace prior to fermentation. IMHO, it's a crude visual indicator that helps determine when to take a hydrometer reading. I use glass and BB carboys, so I usually rely on watching the wort more than I do...

As seen on reddit a few days ago. So wrong. If I were to put that thing on my dogs, then how would I get them to poop in the yards of people on my street that I don't like?

Well, if you designed a sour beer to be ready to drink in a month, then I'd say you were asking too much. I've never heard of a b-weisse that was ready to drink in a month! Exactly how warm did you get your starter? You're making assumptions that don't need to be made. IIWY, I'd leave this batch...

Please tell me this isn't your first time reading The Onion...:o

Darn, and here I thought you were making a beer in tribute of Bill Frist.

Two. One to screw in the light bulb, and a second one to call the first one a hipster for screwing in the light bulb.

I disagree, respectfully. My sourness didn't really take hold until a couple months out.
