    Cold water sparge

    You want to know why I sparge with 170° water as opposed to cold? It takes me less time to bring the kettle to a boil while Im sparging. Time is a huge thing for me, I try to keep a brew session to 4 hours And, If we are only talking about 2 or 3 efficiency points because of the temps then who...

    STILL NO HEAD

    Ive never had to compensate for head retention by adding wheat malt. And I'd go with carapils before wheat anyway. I forget if you mentioned or not, has this always been a problem or is this something new

    Legal to trade brew?

    you can put a damn tip jar on top of your kegerator and take in money if you feel like it. And Im pretty sure everyone here has sold a keg now and then. You used to be able to sell the weed you grew here too, i think you still can. But whtever, nobody cares about a couple gallons of brew...

    Picnic Tap Recommendations?

    pics by Desert_Sky posted Nov 30, 2010 at 6:01 PM I brewed for a lot of people and a lot of parties or events. Id drop kegs off with whats seen in the picture for the tap. Simply a picnic tap and 3 or 4 inches of tubing for a couple hundred kegs. It works no need to get fancy. It does drip...

    Poor head retention.

    are you pitching enough? Is the boil hard enough to denature LTP1? Hows the attenuation? Have you recently switched cleaners? Are you shaking the shieet out of your kegs during carbonation? Dont do that Are you positive its all clean?

    You know you're a home brewer when?

    Oh you mean the 3 fridges in the garage that have no food in them?

    My Budget was $200... That was a fail

    Dude...... Its not how much you spend, its that every time you drink a pint that you brewed yourself, you're NOT spending 5 or 6 bucks at the brewery. So technically .......a corny keg drank by you at home is just like saving $200 - $240 every time. Minus the $20ish spent on ingredients of course
