I think this is the confusion. It takes years to master the trade I understand clearly but you're saying it's also not possible to build a barrel Friday afternoon correct? Even a very basic one. If this is true maybe I'll take the other user's input and I chip the floorboard up into a mulch...

This is good feedback, unfoertunately I don't have the disposable cash right now. I would love to just be done with it and buy one.

Again I am sorry, I don't mean to be disrespectful. I was thinking more, it's not disrepectful to brewers when we try to brew at home for the first time and have boil overs on the sink or suck back and ruin perfectly good wort or equipment. If I tried to build a table with this wood I would hope...

I think I've seen coopers post on here and I've really meant no disrespect to him and I'm not foraying into fine woodworking, just trying to make a barrel. It doesn't have to look nice and I won't pretend I know anything about the trade, but maybe if I try once and make mistakes that's how...

Hi guys, just looking for instructions on how to make a water tight box or vessel for the beer, ideally by friday at 3. No trolling just a question. Thanks!

I've tried gardening and growing hops and it's quite complicated to do it correctly. All I'm looking to do is to create a simple wooden vessel that can hold beer with no air inside, maybe it's wrong to call it a "barrel". The video you sent me makes me think a barrel isn't what I want.

Hi everyone, I'm done replacing the boards on my porch, and I have 3 things left over from the project: Wood, bourbon and a recipe for my cupcake stout. Exactly, a bourbon barrel aged stout, so why invent the wheel when I've already got what I need to just make it. Can someone please outline or...

Hi I got my answers regarding best capping for this beer. Thanks to those that payed attention to what this thread was about. No thanks to those that tried to ruin the thread.

So don’t take it personal, but you want info that will next lead to someone knocking on my door. I don’t think so. Sorry. At this point you are bullying me into giving up my own personal security.

No, I don’t think so. It was near my house and I am not giving all of you details that could compromise my privacy or security. With all do respect you’re just a bunch of condescending thugs.

What do you mean what contest it was a beer contest in ND. What’s going on here am I being hacked?

I’m not adding artificial strawberry.

Yes It did score well.

What do you mean of course it won the category

It does not shock me that your post starts out helpful and degrades into name calling. Some long timers can tend to be a bit more carefully condescending. Either way, you bring up 2 good points, maybe 3 that I will have to consider.

I will actually share with you because you appear to be the only respectful person on this whole thing. There's a lot of stuff on the sheet that got into grades and notes on taste and appearance, etc. But category 30a, overall scored 44 which I'm told is almost world class. There are notes...

Guys I'd love to stay here and defend myself and prove myself some more but between a brewery buildout, test batches and lets not forget my day job... I'm exhausted. Thanks to the 1 of you that actually offered good advice. As far as this thread goes, I think I've found an orghanization or two...

I'm starting to get spooked about all of you people needing so much personal information about me. So we have an 80 year old fisherman and an anonymous guy with a hop picture questioning my avatar?? It was a Halloween picture a few years ago, if you need to know, and the other guy isn't Pedro...

YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME Anyone reading this thread for the first time is going to be convinced that you're all insane. Because I started this thread WITH PICTURES INCLUDED!!!!!111 Literally posted the pictures THE MORNING AFTER IF HAPPENED. 2 pictures in fact. And then you come back with...
