    Best tool to extract beer from a carboy

    You need a wine thief, or what I use is a broken auto-siphon.

    So I want to grow barley.

    Wow, NPGS site is very confusing. I found the order form but can't find the list of available germplasm varieties.

    No matter what- You too will do stupid shiz

    I power drilled straight into the palm of my hand while ignoring proper safety precaution. I could see the cavity of my hand, pretty awesome. When i took the cuticle scissors to cut the flesh hanging out of the hole, i hit a giant nerve that was hanging out! It was the only painful part, and...

    So I want to grow barley.

    Well, i just ordered the 5lb bag. If it doesn't end up being good enough for malting it will certainly make my new goat very happy. I appreciate the help.

    So I want to grow barley.

    I know I won't get the same consistancy and quality as buying it, but I had a lot of satisfaction from from garden this year. So why not? I am also getting goats next season and figured After getting what I need from the the Harvest that they would enjoy the rest. The problem is that all I can...

    To secondary or not to secondary, that is the question

    Either way this question will never have a final answer. The keg is my secondary.

    What's the worst craft brew (commercial) you've had?

    Green flash/st. Feuillion friendship brew. It's a black saison with Brett, it's like ashy iodine in a glass.

    Double Pale Ale - High ABV

    http://averybrewing.com/brewery/recipes-for-homebrewers/ Just over 9% @1.085. Just my opinion, expensive.

    Double Pale Ale - High ABV

    Wow, nearly $70 for a 5 gallon extract kit! I don't think I could ever bring myself to pay that, yesterday I brewed a 10 gallon clone of "The Kaiser" imperial octoberfest by Avery for around $50.

    Carboy with spigot share your experience

    For a plastic carboy and a bucket style spigot it seems kind of expensive.

    Making your own CO2

    Well I'm gonna give it a shot. At worst I ruin a batch of beer. I used to be an engineer so this really intrigues me. For me it's worth the experiment to know whether it can be done.

    Making your own CO2

    These are the answers I'm looking for. Total assumption, but I figure if <5oz of corn sugar can carb a keg with 15psi in the headspace, then enough pressure to serve it as well doesn't seem to improbable.

    Making your own CO2

    Wait what!? I didn't realize o2 or oxygen was a biproduct of fermentation. In this case how does all beer not become oxidized by primary fermention or conditioning?

    Making your own CO2

    No need to compress, I'm talking low pressure. Less than 100psi before a regulator, and fermentation will do to compress that. I'm thinking that would suffice to serve a keg at 10psi.

    Making your own CO2

    So since the price of refilling my 5lb tank has risen to nearly $30, I was thinking of trying to capture the co2 from fermentation and use it to carb and dispense. I figure I could dedicate one of my corny kegs as a closed fermenter with the gas tube connected to a low pressure regulator, and...

    You know you're a home brewer when?

    I've had the fire department and the police show up on seperate occasions. When they showed up they knew exactly what's going on, but I thought it was funny.
