One of the guys had his stuff shipped over so all kinds. It was just another peace keeping BS deployment like all the rest. I wasnt impressed with Egypt or the surrounding area. Just another armpit of the world in my opinion, maybe Uncle Sam has clouded my judgement but oh well.

Served 8 years in the U.S. Cavalry as a Scout and learned how to brew beer on a deployment to Egypt. Good luck to ya. I'd do it again if given the chance, had a blast and met a lot of good friends. Even with all the BS! Cheers!

I typically keg my beer but when I do bottle I use my dishwasher to santize my bottles. I make sure the dishwasher is set for Hot Prewash and have never had an issue. I also make it habit to clean my bottles individually after I pour a beer. I'm sure there are guys here that will frown upon...

Awesome use of the chalkboard paint. I like it!

Whenever I use dry yeast I just pitch it dry I never rehydrate. I have never had a problem with any of my brews.

Currently in the middle of my mash. I use Brew Pal and iBrewmaster for the iPhone as my brewing software and noticed neither have Motueka or Soachi Ace in the Hops database anyone else notice this? No big deal I primarily use the software for strike and sparge volumes. Not very common...

I got the day off on Friday, I'm planning on brewing this beer and smokin' some ribs. This recipe gave me the idea to try the Simply Cranberry in my "Turkey Chaser" Cranberry Ale I brew around Thanksgiving, thanks! :mug:

Nice stand! Even nicer use of that Yuengling Keg!!

I bought a black GE fridge from walmart to make a kegerator and knicked the coolant line during my build also... I was pissed to say the least. So I went back to Wally World bought the same fridge and put broken fridge back in the box and returned it no questions asked.....:ban:

I figure this is the best place for this question or maybe the DIY section. Did some searching and haven't found an answer. Good possibility I'm not searching correctly. Anyways I have been thinking about turning my plastic bottling bucket into a HLT. I have seen videos where guys overseas use...

I would disagree with this, a degree is nothing more than an initiation process and to prove you can handle some type of work load. Just because it says "technology" in your degree doesn't mean you can't be an Engineer. You can get your PE (Professional Engineer) license with "technology" in...

Electrical (Power) Engineer We are.... PENN STATE!

My vote would be a Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal Stout hands down.... If you don't like PB just do the Chocolate Oatmeal Stout, or a coffee stout. I know they might not be session worthy........ oh well

Not yet. Waiting for another couple months to brew this again. Have a list of other brews I want/need to brew first.

All my chocolate was added to the boil.

I have shopped at keystone but now I tend to buy from Wine and Beer Makers Outlet in Coopersburg. It is closer to my house even though he doesn't have as big of a selection as Keystone. And no I'm not a member of the club, currently not a member of any homebrew club.

I agree it has only begun! Welcome to the party... :mug:

I use whole spices (cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg) with 15 min left in boil and remove at flame out. I have had success with spice flavor by doing this. Just brewed a pumpkin ale this past weekend used same technique but this time I added some pumpkin pie spice and more whole spices at flame...

I wouldn't call it quits on extracts after your first attempt. Next time try adding the extract into the fermenter. Instead of adding the day you keg your beer, try adding the extract a few days before kegging it will help to mellow the flavor a bit. Just my $0.02 :tank:

How about Midnight Moon Pumpkin Ale or Midnight Hill Pumpkin Ale. You got to let me know how it turns out I might have to try this. Sounds good. When you brewing it? Sooner than later I hope.
