So make sure all the windows are closed and leave it unattended as much as possible? :cross: What's a good book for an all grain beginner, but not too beginner? opps, posted too quick, just saw teles post. Thanks.

I'm ready to go all grain, or at least partial mash. Been doing the extract/steeping grains thing, but I want to do all grain and take ownership of my recipes. The savings in ingredients is a bonus, even if the initial investment is more. What's the best book for learning the properties...

I thought they made it legal in Utah recently. Maybe I'm wrong, but I know there's a big push.

That's my pint. The notion is ridiculous. edit: hahaha, Freudian slip. I meant point, not pint, but I'll take it.

I broke one last week. Slipped out of my hands and onto the floor.

I'd love to see the how they would enforce the 200 gallon law.

So I take it this is a good book? Should I cop.

I have to work for myself so having a brewery would be cool. I would rather hire a master brewer, rather than brew for a living. However, in reality, if I took on a project like that I'd probably have to brew myself for a while. I love it as a hobby, I could even enjoy doing it as a job...

That's almost verbatim of what I said to my girlfriend the other night. (about beer yeast you sick f-ers) :D

I'm getting mad chill haze in all my beers but my hefeweizen, which is unusually clear till I pour the yeast in. It's not really driving me crazy, the beer still tastes good, but it's odd. What could it be, the cold break? Sorry, I should have searched before posting, but it's about to...

I wish I had a dishwasher. :(

Laser from FedEx Kinkos. I'm behind. My IPA is ready on Thursday but I haven't designed the label yet. Gotta get crackin'.

Yeah, the BJCP Style Guidelines is my Bible. I'm not worried about following them but they are a great reference to learn for yourself.

keep at it

I'm drinking my second batch and the magic is still on ten! What an amazing feeling to drink your own brew. My first batch was good, but my hefe is amazing. Got a "You made this?" just today. HELL YEAH I MADE THIS!:rockin: Good job memphomaniac.

Hefe Boil

;) I actually do the sharpie thing as well. I have my dates logged but I'll probably start marking that as well. Never know when that computer could go.
