Next closure, Bells? Another take on the Anchor story: How Sapporo USA Sank Anchor Brewing Co.

Never heard about any permanent solution to tinnitus. I've had it most of my adult life in that I thought that the ringing was normal until I read up about it. I have just learned to ignore it unless I read a post about tinnitus and my brain realizes that the ringing is still there.

Kind of reminds me of the Olympics, city's are putting their bids in to host and if they are choosen they end up in the poor house. Except it's AHA, participants and the vendors ending up in the poor house.

My experience with a counter pressure bottle filler is that I initially purge the empty bottle with CO2 prior to filling. After filling the level goes down a little after pulling out the fill tube and to cap on foam I either give another shot of CO2 from the fill tube or lightly tap the top of...

Correction this was a 10 gallon batch.

Yes I added 1 gallon of sparge water to the grain after draining the wort (5 gallon batch). I mashed at 146 deg. F for 30 minutes before the kettle mash and after a 30 minute kettle mash (boiling) the temp after adding the wort back was 165 deg. F.

I had to read it twice to make sense. Since you are not bringing the decoction mash up to boiling there is no need to stir the mash.

I used a kettle mash (Kesselmaishe) where you drain off the wort and boil the entire mash and then add the wort back for the final conversion and mashout which I had excellent results with a Czech Dark Lager.

It could be a hairline crack in your QD.

Does your other liquid ball lock leak as well? I stick with CMBecker ball lock disconnects since I have had good luck with them.

I also recommend Maui Brewing Company, they have a brewpub location in Lahaina as well as their main brewery in Kihei. I am a big fan of the Coconut Porter, they had an imperial coconut porter last time I was there.

I have the Vision grill and the only factory item I replaced was the felt gasket with a high temp version which has held up for several years now. Every so often I have to disemble the top vent to clean it since it gets gummed up over time. What issues are you having with your Vision grill...

I connected both my refrigerators to RO for drinking water and ice. I also use RO water for my Miele coffee machine.

Fortunately the wort on brew day contains no alcohol. Talking to home distillers years ago, the smell is a dead giveaway.

I assume that it's a 2 roller mill? Not mentioned in the specs. It seems pretty light based on the size of the rollers, must have made use of plastic materials.

Coco Brewing Co. named after my late dog.

Sprecher makes an excellent root beer concentrate: Root Beer Extract | Sprecher Brewing Company My local home brew shop often carries it. 1 gallon of concentrate makes 5 gallons of rootbeer, perfect for serving out of a corney keg. They make other flavors as well.

Correct I dump the trub through the dump port. For beers that I dry hop, I do several dumps, a few days apart, and after cold crashing. This has worked out very well for me for batches that I dry hop loose (no bag). I have not had any issues with the filter clogging but I use a coarser...

Sounds like how I do my transfers: Spike CF10 - closed transfer without pressure?
