    Fellowship of the Drink VIII: The Battle of the Brewers

    Unfortunately, I'm out again. It's been all work and no play for me lately. Just posting here so I can watch this round unfold... and get some beer porn. :mug:

    New Beer Glasses Delivered -- Pretentious Beer Glasses

    In my opinion, they are the best in this business. :mug: I was recently at my local Binny's, and they had a bunch of glassware on clearance. I was amazed when I saw quite a few glasses with "Spiegelau" etched on the bottom. I couldn't believe it. With prices ranging from $4 to $10, I...

    Intertap Flow Control Faucet -- Question

    My 4 tap keggerator uses 3/16" lines from 3-6 feet, at 38° and 12psi. No issues. Before I bought the flow controls, my lines were about 10.5 feet long each. The flow controls work. I have a feeling your issues are not enough air circulation, and your lines are warm. Possibly the out post...

    No, they are chrome. :(

    How to get tap handles further from wall?

    Is it too late to cancel your order? I've got some of these that I don't use with my new build. I think I have 6. You can have them all for $10 shipped... I just gotta find them. Lol! :mug:

    No, really, it was a very sensible investment...

    I think they like to be called "little people"... or I guess just "people". :ban:

    A Few More BTUs or A Cereal Killer?

    How to clean a 4 way manifold?

    Take the side plug out of the manifold and see if you got beer inside. If so, then the chack valves are not working or there are no checks in the shut off valves. In the future, check out www.ritebrew.com for all kegging hardware. 95% of the time, they are way cheaper than other online...

    RIS - bottle condition or bottle from keg?

    ^^^This is most likely very true.^^^ When I naturally carb in a keg, I'd rather shoot a bit low than over do it. I usually hook up the keg to serving pressure in my keggerator for a couple days anyways to make sure the carbonation is up to where I want it. I'd rather do that than wasting time...

    RIS - bottle condition or bottle from keg?

    I'm actually not sure why, in regards to using half the sugar as usual, but I'd assume that it's because there's a larger mass of yeast at the party. :mug: Stop being cheap and buy another keg dammit! :ban: The sludge at the bottom isn't bad. About half a pint the first pour, and...

    Travelling to the US, opinions on best beers to try!

    Chicagoland area favorites: Half Acre Pipeworks Pollyanna Revolution 18th Street (NW Indiana) 3 Floyd's (NW Indiana) All amazing beers. Binny's and Kenwood Liquors are the 2 liquor stores that carry a vast amount of beer from coast to coast. Thay won't have the real small breweries in...

    RIS - bottle condition or bottle from keg?

    When I make a RIS, I prime the keg with sugar (usually about half of what you'd use to bottle carb) and bulk age in the keg in my basement. Pull a small sample every 3 months. This way, if my carb level isn't what I was hoping for, I can slowly carb it up with co2 from a tank. Plus, there's...

    Anyone gotten the 40% off at HomeBrewSupply.com to work?

    I tried multiple items and it wouldn't work. I was super surprised that it does work on the Blichmann Hop Rocket. Just pricing stuff though. I don't need to be buying any more crap right now. :ban:

    Has home brewing changed your tastes in beer?

    I started out only making Belgians, Hefe's, and stouts on occasion. I wasn't a fan at all of IPA's. Then I started making hop teas and adding pellets to commercial lagers to understand hops more, and experiment with the flavors. Now, majority of my brews are heavily hopped IPA's and pales...

    2 Extremely Dirty Carboys

    Contrary to Outkast listeners' popular beliefs, Polaroid does not recommend shaking pictures that are developing. Place them face up on a flat surface, and out of direct sunlight, for best results. On topic: Those things are hideous! But hey! Great price! I would have passed on them...

    You could return it to a liquor store... ;)
