    Auto-siphon and sample thief broken?

    Yes, it's the tip off the racking cane stuck in the thief. Neither come apart easily, I think I'll just get some needle nose and pull it out. If I good up the thief, oh well it's not critical.

    Auto-siphon and sample thief broken?

    Pulled my goods out today and realized something, the safety cap from my siphon( top) must have come off in my sample thief (bottom) last time I used it. Anything I can do here? I am willing to destroy one if need be to fix the other. Thanks,

    Dry Hopping Hop Options

    They were dry whole leaf, the top layer still is dry. I'll try cold crashing, I'm not really not sure if pushing them in is a good idea at this point. Next time I'll bag em, and make em sink!

    2 rehydrations 2 different results

    Hey all, in the midst of making a Rye Pale Ale OG ~1.050 Rehydrated 2 packets of yeast: Nottingham Ale Yeast, and Safbrew T-58. The nottingham came with the kit, the safbrew I had as a safety/back-up. Currently after proofing, the nottingham is barely doing anything, alot of sediment on the...

    Dry Hopping Hop Options

    alright, i am, just opened today to check specific gravity. Most of them are still chilling out on top. Didn't use a sack or any of that, because it didnt seem to matter consensus wise on here. When I rock to bottle should i just assume they will be sunk by then, or work around them? thanks

    Dogfish Head 75 minute IPA

    Just stumble upon this at my LHBS while picking up ingredients for today's brew. Bottle conditioned with maple syrup. This should be good!

    Sam Adams Small Batch Series

    I think the bottle definitely was the initial selling point for me, a much better style than the traditional Sam Adams labels. I like Boston lager alright if I'm in like an airport for example (which is frequent) other wise Sam family of brands isn't really my thing either

    Brewer's Best: Imperial Pale Ale question

    I just brewed this kit too, it's my first attempt so my details might not be a trustworthy but they seem similar to the rest of this thread. Had an OG of 1.072, after 8 days (2 without airlock activity) I ended up at 1.020. Decided to dry hop in the primary and let it sit for another week...

    Cold crash, what is it?

    I see this phrase used quite a bit. Clueless as to what it means.

    What are you drinking now?

    It just doesnt have that crisp bite I expect out of a euro style pils. No enough saaz perhaps? Dunno, just a little dull which is uncommon for southern tier, they usually have good product
  18. smellgoats

    What are you drinking now?

    It's just okay, I love most of southern tier's offerings but I feel like they missed the mark a but on this one. It's a good , comparable pils, just not my favorite. I'm gonna stick to great divide nomad or left hand polestar before I go for this again.
  19. smellgoats

    What are you drinking now?

    Arrogant bastard 22oz, southern tier euro trash pilz

    Sam Adams Small Batch Series

    I agree with that sentiment. Never really liked the latitude 48 ipa as much as the other offerings out there.
