    amstel light bottles

    They don't have a proper lip for a handheld capper to grab on to. They will work, you just need to be aware and make sure that you get a good seal. You won't get the same capping action that you get with your standard bottles and it will just feel weird.

    Is 10:00 AM too early to drink beer if football is involved?

    I prefer to think that 10AM is too LATE to start drinking if football is involved.

    Turkey Fryer!......Yaaaay!!

    The aluminum turns brown due to the development of an oxide coating on the surface. This coating keeps your wort from reacting with the aluminum, so DO NOT go scrubbing it off. It is, in fact recommended to do a boil of water in an aluminum pot prior to using it for brewing in order to develop...

    Can I save my ESB from WY1968?

    The London Ale is awesome..... ferments in 48-72 hours. Beer is crystal clear in like a week. Got a batch of winter warmer in bottles now.

    How much better is all grain Vs. Extract brewing??

    From my experience, I have made excellent all grain, partial mash, and extract beers. Each method definitely has it's own benefits and issues. Extract is very repeatable, but more expensive and can be limiting due to the few types if malt extract available. Steeping grains can make up for...

    What styles would they be? I'm sure I would be in for this if there were people to go along.

    Two beers, once mash, how to do it?

    Check this site for some info on parti-gyle brewing. It also has a couple of very useful tables for nailing OG's for your two beers. http://brewingtechniques.com/library/backissues/issue2.2/mosher.html

    Glassware with micro-etching

    It is amazing that something that is so popular over there is basically non-existant over here.

    Glassware with micro-etching

    My last trip to Europe, I noticed that most Pub glassware over there has micro etching that releases carbonation. I'd like to get some glassware that has this, but I don't want branded. (therefore no New Belgium or Sam Adams glasses as they are the only I've found that have this in the US)...

    Ageing my Pumpkin Ale inside an actual Pumpkin..

    All I could think when I read the subject header was "That sound like a really bad idea.". So on the plus side you ended up with a drinkable batch.

    First multi-beer brew day today - Very successful

    I started at 8am, was finished by 4. Probably could have finished earlier, but my only helpers are my 3 yr old twins. Block off the brew area and let them run in the yard for a few hours and it gets really hard to finish one batch, much less three. SWMBO will be glad to have me done brewing...

    First multi-beer brew day today - Very successful

    I'm getting ready to have a beer tasting Christmas party, so I needed to get a bunch of beers in production. Now I've got 3 batches in Primary and should be ready to go before my party. Super-excited b/c as always, these will be my best beers ever. I'll take any comments on my recipes, but...

    British beer tour

    Spent a week week in London earlier this month, and I must have tried about 10 or 15 different real ales over the course of the week. I have to say that I am definitely torn on the style. I love the malty/nutty flavor of the real ales. In fact, I got back to the states and immediately...

    Good places for craft brew in London?

    Heading to London for a week on Saturday. Going to doall of the usual tourist stuff. My wife suggested that we do the ESB brewery tour, but we'll probably skip it b/c it is pretty out of the way. I'd much rather find a place that serves various craft brews that you can't get in the US...

    Totally farked my first batch of apfelwein

    Been totally distracted getting ready for my vacation to London next week. Planned on brewing a batch of beer two weekends ago, but it rained fora week straight and my basement flooded. That killed my next weekend cleaning up the mess. Anyway, since I didn't want to spend two weeks in Europe...
