Any specific model of Foodsaver you guys like? They're pretty pricey for sure.

I've got 3 lbs of hops from Hops Direct. They've been sitting in my freezer for awhile now because I don't have anyway to seal smaller amounts once I open a bag. Anyway what are you guys using to seal your hops?

lol;) I see what you did there

I wasn't there, my girlfriend was, very tall blonde with lots of tattoos. Her and her friend did it. You think the beer class would be beneficial to me at this point?

No bubble to be burst here my friend, I know my place haha. I'm currently using beersmith and I'm using it to its fullest, so I've got the notes down, both in method, and tasting notes when its done. I definitely may swing by next weekend as long as I'm not busy, I'd love to see someone else...

I'm not gonna actually try selling it guys, just looking to see how common it is to have friends ranting about your brews in such a way.

Ha. Exactly. I've got a few of my own recipes going right now. Gonna wait a few more batches before giving AG a try though, I figure another few months of extract and I'll be ready for the jump.

I have friends definitely who this is true for. However the friend who keeps pushing it, would buy it a lot. We're in a band together, and every single practice we drink nothing but awesome/expensive craft brews that he and I both buy. We also drink homebrew now.:) I'm moving in a couple...

I've got a friend who is ready to do such a thing. People crack me up. Just cuz I can cook a steak dinner, doesn't mean I wanna open a restaurant ya know? At least not yet.;)

Yes I know what the 3 mistakes were, and I intend to next time make a very similar recipe to make two, one the standard way, another with those "mistakes" and those mistakes might just turn out to be my style for a pale ale.

Well I made 3 fairly large mistakes that I think contributed to it tasting different. :mug:

Haha. Well fortunately, my friends have been exposed to me enough that they're pretty savvy on the craft brews. Especially the friend in question. Yeah. Honestly, I just don't get the big deal. Yes its good, but its not THAT good. I have no interest in starting a business, however I...

Well this is the type of guy, who normally, is quick to say anything is ****, or suck, or is terrible, etc. So this is very strange. Actually, when I gave him my first beer, I knew that he would be one opinion I could count on being honest. So his response was rather strange to me.

:p What the heck? I just started, and I botched my first batch in about 3 different ways. It turned out awesome, but not at all how you expect it to taste. Anyway I had a friend, with a pretty expansive pallet, telling me it was the best beer he had ever had, and going on and on forever...

I rate all the songs on my iPod. I delete anything that gets a 1 or 2. I have a playlist for the 3, 4, and 5 star songs. My 5 star song list has around 800 songs. So I just rock that on shuffle. Anything might come up. Iron Maiden Aesop Rock Woodie Guthrie Wilhelm Scream Ben Folds Its...

I did the EXACT same thing with my first brew. I just added some boiled, then cooled water to the secondary before racking the beer from the primary. My beer turned out GREAT.

Very well said.:mug:

Funny thing about this is, I consider myself to typically be a hop head, but if its the malts I'm liking in this, then maybe I'll have reconsider...

This makes sense and is good to know, thank you.:mug:
