You software engineers/developers always say that :p ...its the web developers and designers that prefer macs over PCs because they can actually handle the load we throw at them :D

the probe you get with the stc-1000 is waterproof... (i've had it in water for a few months now and it still works fine)

my newest:

Just thought of something...since the PET bottles are more expensive, maybe offer some sort of "discount" for hikers that show you a park pass (you have to get one a yosemite right?) Or maybe some sort of "discount" from their next purchase if they bring back the PET bottles they just used...

I'd offer both to be honest. - PET for the hikers who want some craft beer on the trail and glass for when they come back and wanna take a 6 pack (or case) home with them! The park doesn't allow glass right? Most parks don't - that's where you'd make your money on the PET containers (and their a...

My super simple solution to a gravity fed system :D

yea, i realize that, but its still a cool idea lol...maybe he could pour in some liquid nitrogen :p

I'll bite! What if you did this instead: Add a ball valve to your boil kettle - from there you could use a piece of thick walled silicon tubing which would go to a piece of copper or SS tubing of equal diameter (you'll have to have a piece of silicon tubing on both ends of course). The metal...

Awesome, thanks for the tip...I'll definitely try playing with that...unfortunately I might not be able to do it before they die off for the fall/winter so I'll make sure to make this a spring beer.

So I have a decent amount of honey suckle growing in my yard. Ever since I started brewing I've thought of making some sort of honey suckle ale...any one have any suggestions - would it even work? I've seen other people made wine with it...just curious if it'd be worth doing it with beer.

There's gotta be over 100 threads on keezer builds...so i figured, hell, why not another one! I just recently decided i wanted to start kegging (tired of bottling 2+ cases at a time) and of course i had to make a good looking keezer (with coffin) to go with it...My main issue with most coffin...

I use beersmith on my macbook pro...I've looked into BeerAlchemy and iBrewmaster but it just looks so cluttered - there's practically no UI there, just lists. Personally, I don't have a real need for using these programs on my mobile device (except for a shopping list - which i throw in my...

Bazooka screens aren't nearly as thin as the SS screens. They let a lot more tannins through, so you have to make up for that with a couple extra vorlaufs

I know, I'm using a bazooka too. Like i said, i vorlauf about 5 quarts I also mill my own grain using my carona mill

Honestly, since i've started batch sparging i just open the valve about 3/4 of the way and let it go. In theory, the slower you let it drain the less likely it'll clog/let husks through. When i used to fly sparge i'd open maybe 1/4 of the way and usually only had to vorlauf maybe 2 or 3...

of course, i know a lot of people use em...it'll still affect your OG though (because it was ground thin not because of the husks)

Gotta do more than that - i always vorlauf about 5 or 6 times, even with the SS braid i had. did you grind the grain yourself? maybe its a bit too thin?

i just recently switched to using a bazooka screen in my mash tun (used the SS braid method before) and i have to say i love it. I recently did a batch of witbier and after vorlaufing came out as clear as my previous set up.

Is the dessert that she's gonna take a dump on your chest? ...why the hell is she spreading her cheeks?!
