Interesting... I never realized you could use an oven to make the syrup. That other thread just talked about doing it on a stove top and having to stir it constantly, to keep it from burning. An oven applies the heat from all around.... I think I need to try this. Have you tasted them yet?

Something like that....🙃

I bought a Flex+ and kettles and a few other accessories, including the heater for the Flex. The heater failed due to faulty cord connection to the pad. I emailed them and they promptly replaced it. I compared the two and could see the improved/different wire connection to the pad. As for the...

I just looked up "bubblegum" in a beer styles app I have... mostly it's considered an off flavor. This is the description... "refers to the flavor profile of Bazooka Bubble Gum original flavor, a pink chewing gum, a sweet mixed fruit flavor dominated by banana and strawberry with fruit punch...

I've never really looked at "payback". I started leveling up my brewery a few years ago in anticipation of retirement when I won't be able to afford the hardware. At that point, It'll be just be ingredient cost. So depending on how much the wife and I glurk, I'll probably be able to save over...

Deleted. My phone only showed me one response... didn't see the whole day's worth...

I'm not too concerned... this has been around for a long time. Fist they say "It's bad for you", then it was "It's good for you!"... now it's back to 'You're gonna die!" I tend to think it's hard alcohol that'll do you in... Also depends on the person, like the OP's Mom still partying at 93! Go Mom!

Don't fear the foam! 🤣 I charge the keg with about 10psi co2 and turn it upside down and pull the ring. The pressure keeps air from entering...

I own an auto repair shop and work the front desk. I'm also nearing retirement and my fuse is growing shorter... 🤣

There are a few things I'll be doing this year.... I need to replace the top of the bench/table I built for my system. I used OSB and didn't stain or seal the whole bench and now it's starting to get a little mold on the top due to constant spillage. I'll use a sheet of Oak plywood and stain and...

I brewed Wry Smile earlier this year... turned out nicely. I'll definitely brew it again.

I'm thinking ribs... yum!

Smoky Maple sounds good... where did you obtain this?

You do realize this thread is 17 years old, right?

Happy Holidays from CA!

A lot.... any real temp control can be a big step. My flex+ and glycol chiller now lets me change temp quickly and also lager, which the fermentation chamber couldn't do.... also improved oxygen avoidance and pressure ferm...

When I first started brewing, we measured the beer temp with a dial thermometer placed on the floor next to the bucket. Later in life I built a fermentation chamber around a mini fridge controlled by Inkbird. The temp probe was taped to the side of the fermenter. Worked pretty well.... These...

I'd be more worried about which one is food grade... I believe poly would be your best choice.
