Hold Out Brewing. Austin Porter. Very good

Don’t ban me bro! The empty tumbler is HB Hefeweizen. The bottle is one my wife opened and didn’t like so it’s mine now 🤪

Fermenter full. Can't brew :confused:. But if I could, I would brew the beer the mother of most of my children gave her best review to "It's OK," which would be my Grolsch-ish lager.

They said “you can go stainless,” "It’s really quite painless" So I emptied my bank And I drank and I drank And now I just feel pretty brainless

People bought the house next to us that had been EMPTY for seven years. My wife made cookies and I brought a growler of HB IPA. There was a kid there, like 10 years old, and he said "my Dad will like this" (about the beer).

No need to use ball lock connect; you should already have the stuff to do it if you have the "Closed pressure transfer kit" from Spike for the CF10. Looks like this. Racking port to valve to TC with barb to tubing to your Sanke coupler that you've taken the check valves out of (I call this one...

Just put the new wort into the fermenter without cleaning. Don't worry about the crap on the walls. I would oxygenate next but probably not necessary with all the splashing that goes on. You don't need any pkgs of yeast - that's kind of the whole idea!

IPA. Got my harvested yeast and my hop box hops. First time trying the Lupomax

Hopbox. Gift from my daughter and son-in-law. Comes with hops and swag!

Been wondering same thing. Had COVID in December and defintitely noted like the OP that beer seemed "seltzer-y." I have a porter recipe (no chocolate added) that I'm sure I could taste chocolate in before, but don't notice it now.

So I just pulled an IPA from a keg I think is about to kick and I'm weirdly disappointed that it didn't but then when they kick I'm also a little sad. I know my homebrew people can identify, right? right?

Pretty sure I had some sea monkeys that lived for a little bit. Had the green plastic ant farm - don't remember how that ended either

It's strictly enforced with optional penalties!

Might have to try that for the yeast jars. "Surely I won't forget what I put in you buddy - Plenty of time to come back and label you later and I really should get back to drinking this pint..."

Horsemeat sammich sounds amazing right now. Too bad I don't have a horse

No, it was not supposed to be anything seriously affecting the beer like that - just meaning don't enjoy too much brew too early in the brew day ;). Maybe the "broken hydrometer count" people started it.

So, as I brew today this question came up again. We've all heard the "no brew before the boil" guideline, and I've seen where it matters for calculating IBUs, boil times, pre-boil gravity and so on. But does that mean "before the boil starts?," "before rolling boil reached," "before thinking...

I know the feeling!!
