The wife was the driving force behind our start. I proposed it as a new hobby but I already have too many. She gets bummed if i do a brew day without her. With all the hobbies that are just for me, it is nice to have a joint one. Although she doesn't read up on it or design recipes, she does...

Problem i have is that when my garage door is open, air movement is into the house. However, the door from my house to garage doesnt seal well. Worth considering though.

Avatar was okay except when i watch it I always think its a cross between fern gully and dances with wolves. That and unobtanium...seriously? Wasnt unobtanium first used in the core? I digress. Shawshank in drama category. The rock for an action flick

Guess I was fortunate to get a bottle of Old H earlier this summer. I'd also recommend blithering idiot by weyerbacher, but the OP wouldn't be able to find it most likely.

Partigyle is the way to go for BW. The wife and I used: 14 lb Maris 1 lb Crystal 80 2 lb aromatic 4 lbs pils 2 lb munich 10L Ran off enough first runnings for a post boil 3.5 gal @ 1.102 for BW and another 5.5 gal @ 1.060 for an ESB. She boiled one while I did the other. Fermented with 2...

Old Horizontal by Victory Brewing Co., unfortunately you'd have to cross the IN state line to get it.

I've found it is pretty easy to throw em in the dishwasher on the sanitize setting. Then take them out, lay sanitized caps on top, place in a box and they are ready to go when I need em. Several months between and no infections.

No worries. Thanks for all the work up to this point.

Love the software. On my mac, if the program is open and the computer goes into sleep mode (as when I'm actively brewing), when it wakes back up I get an error message saying BrewTarget has encountered a problem and needed to close. Haven't seen anyone else post a similar problem. Any ideas...

No offense meant. If it were light out when we stopped by and everything else wasn't already closed and dark, I am sure it wouldn't have seemed as bad. Just a couple of uninformed/unfamiliar out of towners.

The wife had a favorite, Pumpkin stout by Elysian. Also, last night in Denver, we hit Strange Brewing. We thought we had the wrong place or were mistaken b/c they were in sort of an industrial park in a way shady type location. Some really fantastic beer. Only making 3 barrel batches but we...

We were GABF virgins too. The wife and I were also a bit disappointed that many of the breweries did not have someone there to answer questions or provide extra info. Riverfront, nice note taking. We just wrote down a few that we liked. We really enjoyed weyerbachers black IPA. Going with...

fuzzy drunken math. Tried a ton though. Definitely not a spitter but a sip was enough for some of them that weren't good. 2 days were enough for the wife and I.

Interested to hear what the hbters thought about the event and what their favorite beers/brewers were. The swmbo took me for my 30th. Felt it was awesome yet overwhelming. I realize that there is another evening but we only had tickets for the first 2. I also felt that we only sampled maybe...

PitMutt Brewing after my dog Abbey. Obviously a pit mix. Hopefully logo soon.

Wanted to provide an update on how this beer turned out. The wife and I both really enjoy it. It finished around 1.016 from about 1.07. The beer was in primary for about 3 weeks and then secondary for a week. It didn't clear very well but thats fine. I actually dry hopped in primary not...

Yeah, I ended up going with a Home Dopey one for $40. In the end it was probably the same price.

This is a great idea and really cool labels. Is it me, or does philip have too many fingers on his right hand?

MMM. Darling, have the butler bring me another "I'm too good for you ale." (spoken in a most irritating Thurston Howell III voice) I choose not to associate with people who choose not to associate with others based on the beer they drink. Drink what makes you happy, or at least what makes...

Only room temp water. Was excited about the prospect of using it. Maybe I just got a bad one. Maybe I'm not as careful as I thought but I doubt it as the night before I tested it out and cleaned it and it was fine. Mostly ranting out of frustration. It helped. Glad it works for a number of...
