    Kid Rock beer

    Same here. But I know him when I hear him, just by the sound of him screaming into the mic. Actually, there is one song that I do know, where the refrain is "I wanna be a COWBOY BAYBEEEEE", which is pretty much just as bad as it sounds. I don't know why I know that...maybe from hanging out with...

    Do I need a d-rest?

    Do you need a d-rest? Depends. Are you a d-bag? Srsly, I've never had problems with diacetyl, but a lot of that has to do with the fact that I pitch cold. However, I always warm my lagers up towards the end of fermentation (at the first sign of it starting to slow down), just to make sure they...

    Kid Rock beer

    I guess the gnawing guilt he felt from producing all that terrible white trash "music" (and I use that term looseley) had to be assuaged somehow. :p;)

    Need Some in a month

    +1 on a German Hefeweizen or American Blonde.

    Kid Rock beer

    Not that I was gonna go see it anyway, but when I heard some horrible Kid Crock song used for the music for the GI Joe movie trailer, I vowed then and there to never, ever, evar see that movie. The same will go for his beer. He is the proverbial floating turd in the gene pool.

    Send your friends on Facebook!

    What do you mean "send them craft beers"? I don't get it. This isn't more of that "send a virtual pint" nonsense, is it? Because my life is way, way too short to be sending virtual f*cking presents across the societal landfill that is Facebook.

    Thumbs up for morebeer.com!

    It's never 25. It's always just one or two, and those one or two hold up your entire order. It's a stupid system. If one or two things are out of stock, then ship them separately and, since THEY were the ones that screwed up, THEY should pay for the extra shipping. It's just such a PITA to spend...

    How to step up a starter

    Brew a 1.5L starter. Pitch yeast (into cooled wort, of course). Let it runs its course and ferment out. It should be fairly obvious when it's done. Do you have a stirplate? Anyway, once it's done, crash-cool it, then decant/discard the clear liquid on top. Do this VERY slowly and steadily, and...

    +1 here. Walking into their store and looking at the inventory on the shelves is different. If it were like the online version, then you'd walk into the store, see an item on the shelf, pick it up, put it on the counter to check out, and when you turned around, it would be gone. When you went...

    Sad news for all of us from GreenwoodRover's family

    Damn. I had many a great BS session with Kevin. You all will be in our thoughts...be strong. Here's to Kevin! :mug:

    Thermometer Hell

    Yes, .125" is 1/8". I don't yet have my 113-159. It's in the mail. If you can wait, I'll have it in a few days and measure then. But the 113-225 looks like it'd work well for your purposes. I don't have a bulkhead, so I just drilled a little hole in my MLT lid and then I feed the 113-372-T...

    Trejo...DeNiro...Alba...Lohan...is there any way this won't be the best thing ever?

    Once World War Z comes out, all other zombie movies will pale in comparison.

    Now we know why Billy Mays was always so amped up.

    Hey, Mister Mod, don't you have the power to merge threads? :D
  14. Evan!

    Now we know why Billy Mays was always so amped up.

    Yeah, the article says that the coke habit contributed to said heart attack. But I wasn't there at the autopsy, so maybe it is a "charade" as you say.

    Now we know why Billy Mays was always so amped up.

    *******. I suddenly have a lot less sympathy for the man. After watching 'Pitch Men', I kinda started to like him, but this is just stupid. Nice job. Who'da thunk OMFG! BILLY MAYS HERE!!! would be into coke...:o

    Adding Fruit to a Kriek Before Pellicle Drops?

    well, Ohiobrewtus dropped by today on his way thru town and we took a sample to try...total badassedness. I don't think I'm gonna even worry about the fruit on this. The base lambic is too good by itself.

    Ah, not quite machete, but still better than most of the CGI-candy tripe they put out these days.

    Adding Fruit to a Kriek Before Pellicle Drops?

    This was my first lambic, and thus obviously my first kriek. I brewed it back on 7/1/08. It's had a healthy, furry 1/2" pellicle for the better part of a year, and there's been essentially no visual change in it. Now that we're 13 months out, I'm thinking it might be time to add the cherry puree...

    Yeast ..... smack pack vs pitchable tube?

    No, I just think that you're the first person who has made that stereotype about the different labs. In my experience, each strain, regardless of its parent lab, has a unique temp range...
