So what did you end up with?

Welcome fellow pacnwner :)

Hope its the best beer you ever had!

yeah with that gravity you might be better off assuming that wasn't really bad water,

Is there a big change in temperature from night to day? Could it be thermal expansion/retraction?

Well I've lived in oklahoma, new england and portland, so that's about all I know.

Vitamin beer light. You heard it here first and I want credit and money when the big makers do it.

You're probably right about the wide pan. Something to think about. I wonder if the forum should put a warning in any homebrewing threads and sticky it so people can know the risks?

I am open minded and I am not afraid to admit I'm wrong. Thinking otherwise could keep me from trying some good beers :) I think what's being lost here is that my original comment was more about the average beer drinker from the midwest (I guess I should have said the southern midwest maybe ;))...

I'm interested in this as well. I live in your area :)

It was probably water condensation inside the detector causing a short.

I love the flavor of Rye. I'm seriously considering using it in almost everything I brew.

The cider forum is down much further :) I'd go with stainless to answer your question

So I went by the New Season's last night. I spoke with the girl that runs the beer and wine aisle and she said that it does OK. Some of the seasonals do quite well and that some of the employees in the store were big fans. The only one available yesterday was a sixer of pilsner and she said she...

Metal might be best, but if you clean and store your measuring stick after use it won't rot.

I just had a cider take 2 weeks to start because I over sulfited and it took a while to evaporate off enough to allow the yeast to start.

I'd guess lubbock or amarillo are his best bets

I might be interested in that I B. I'll see what I can find locally. (Even if you did just call me a hipster :P) for the record, I've always been a "drink Local" Beer guy, so I'm sure I'd be enjoying boulevard if I was back in the midwest. Choc? maybe not.

Well I did a midnight run of this last night. I'm nervous though because I hit my water temp and got my grain in and then went in to talk to the wife for a bit and 25 minutes later I look at the temp and its sitting at 158. I'm guessing I didn't let the thermometer sit long enough or my turkey...
