Welcome to the forum fellow PA resident. I also started with a Fast Ferment. found it difficult to manage temp control. Needed some creative engineering for that. I eventually dropped mine in the sink while cleaning it and broke off the valve end. Being on a budget for brewing I went with the SS...

Someone is trying to hide instead of going to bed.

I have no idea how much we got yesterday but it was probably 2 inches. Not storm related but we were vacationing in Maine a few weeks ago and got to see the strawberry moon over the lake. Not a great shot but the cell phone is all we had.

Hope your chickens are all ok. Our chicken run was flooded but no damage. Just needed a major cleaning. All the food and bedding were soaked. My wife was out in that heavy rain trying to keep the water from backing up into their run. The run is at the lowest part of our yard and water always...

What you want to do is almost exactly what I have been doing since the new pouches have come out. The only difference is I measure out approximately 35ml with stainless measuring spoons instead of by weight. It has worked well for me so far. I am cheap so yeast ranching is the only way to go.

Zoey with the new kitten. This is the great squirrel hunter but terrified of a 8 week old kitten.

It's been about 10 years since we last had cats. When the last one was gone my wife and I said "no more cats, no more litter boxes". That was before this little guy shows up running in and out of the garage while I was working in the yard. No idea where he came from or where his mother is. With...

From Central Pennsylvania the ONLY thing on a hot dog is Sauerkraut {some good home made of course} with just a little yellow mustard and raw onions. While in the NAVY I dated a girl from southern Washington State. She would mix ketchup and mayo and dip her fries in that. Not a bad mix but...

When you had a hard day of being a puppy!

Not IATSE myself. They did all the stage hand work. The rigging was under a different contract.

I am also boomer. when my son was young, 10 years old or so, and a Zeppelin or Aerosmith track would come on, HE would be the one to turn it up. Now its TOOL and GODSMACK but he still likes the classics. That's my boy! Raised him right. We have been to 5 TOOL, 4 PUCIFER, 2 APC and 3 GODSMACK...

I have both Dire I have both Dire Straights and Zep in my collection. Good choices!

I am a animal person, and a beer person, and a Bourbon person. But definitely NOT a people person. Too many anxieties for my liking.

Definitely check out the Meatchurch recipe, that is the one I use and it's a crowd pleaser. I make them as an appetizer for family gatherings and they always go quickly.

I don't think the problem is with the controller but where you are measuring the temp. If you want the cold side to turn off at 70 the air temp of the wort may be at 70 but the temps in your FC are much lower, probably in freezing temps as you are using freezer with a collar. Same with the heat...

Smoked shotgun shells cut into bite size pieces.

Mini Raptor looking to escape and dominate the world, or maybe just pull at my wife's hair again.

I would like to know how your seltzer turns out using the Origin yeast. Using ale yeast I got a LOT of sulfur and had a hard time scrubbing it out. Hopping you have good results.

I have been working on Seltzers for about 2 years now and feel that my process works well. As for yeast, I haver never used EC-118. I have tried WLP-001 and US-05 without much success. I have had very good luck with Mangrove Jack's Hard Seltzer Yeast and Nutrient. No need for additional...

Seven years ago today, we brought this little one home. She is a rescue out of Texas. She was dropped in a high kill shelter with the description "unwanted". How could anyone abandon such a sweet and gentle soul.
