    Poll: Do you have, or plan to get, an electric car?

    I really like those. I'm not sold on EV's yet, but in a few years when I'm ready for a new truck . . .

    Oldest Homebrew You've Ever Had?

    I still have 2 or 3 bottles from my first brew, in 2012 or 2013? It was a Partial Mash Kit, and just okay at the time.

    Tater Tots v Onion Rings

    There's a BBQ joint near me that deep fries their tots and sprinkles a little BBQ rub on top. They are awesome. I've done the same at home with similar results. Onion rings are fine, but usually a sauce delivery vehicle for most people. If they were really that good, you wouldn't have to...

    My Weldless Build Using Strut

    I used an angle grinder to cut all mine and I wished I would have bought a bandsaw. My build looks like . . . I used an angle grinder to cut my strut. :ghostly:

    Soup

    I don't have anything to add other than our local store had the cans of Campbell's Chunky on sale for 99 cents yesterday. It's not in the same league as the stuff in this thread, but makes for a good meal when the girls are away. :ban: I'll make up for it by making some clam chowder here soon...

    Battery Powered Lawn Equipment

    I was working from home this week with a sick kid. And it was 70 and sunny for at least 3 of those days. A lot of us suburban dads outside (not me) and lawn services in the area. I don't generally don't approve of Big Government coming in and stomping on individuals rights. But I see why...

    Ferment and serve in corny - sediment options?

    I'm thinking hard about fermenting in a keg next time around. Mainly because I hate cleaning my carboys. I don't love cleaning kegs, but it's easier for me. I was thinking of doing floating dip tube in the fermentor and then just regular for serving. I've never been one for secondary...

    |Shank length? Spacer for tap?

    I also have my taps coming through the door, though it's a side by side. I went with 5-1/8" shanks, my records say. That got me through the door, and with a 3/4" thick (1x4) piece of wood as a backer. And there's plenty of shank left inside the door. So I would think you could go down to...

    Homebrew Talk 3D Print Thread.

    I swore I wouldn't read this thread any more. I've held out on a 3D printer for so long . . .

    Random Picture Thread

    My wife's grandfather died many years ago, before we ever met. And when her grandmother died 10 years ago, I got his little drawer organizer set, with a bunch of odds and ends in it. Mainly for the drawers themselves, but I've kept his stuff in it. There's been at least 3 times I've been...

    how about a meme generator thread...

    I"m not gonna lie, I may throw one in the freezer and see how it goes. I freaking love soy sauce.

    Washing Dirty Malt?

    I am an engineer in the seed/grain world, but no experience with malt other than drinking it and brewing with it. In the seed/grain world moisture is your enemy. Not just water, but internal moisture in the seed. You combat this by drying/aerating. There's charts out there about how long you...

    'Hangover' pill?

    So this isn't really a hangover pill, but a less drunk pill? Interesting, though I'm not sure I'd use it

    Propane burner

    I bought one somewhat recently and haven't brewed with it. But it's a hell of a burner, pun intended. I've used it to fry turkeys and other things! It's almost scary how much heat it puts out. Probably a little out of hit budget, though.

    What was your first beer… ever?

    I was a late bloomer in that I never drank beer in high school. And my dad doesn't drink either, so I never had that opportunity. He doesn't have a problem with it, he just doesn't bother drinking beer. But my first weekend in college, my neighbor in the dorms handed me a Budweiser. Just a...

    Name That Skyline - Picture Game

    My thoughts as well. I was in Lisbon in 2014 and it really reminds me of a couple of town squares. But it doesn't have the wavy tiling I'd expect.

    how about a meme generator thread...

    We don't let our kids eat ketchup with a spoon. "It's for dipping!" But they'll eat the crap out of tomato soup!

    The Mushroom Growing Thread

    I don't really like mushrooms that much but I tried growing some oysters last year. I tried the bucket/sawdust method. They started out well, but probably got too hot and fizzled out. I still have the bucket and have been soaking it again this year. But I'm going to have to start from...

    Random Picture Thread

    I'm born and raised in the Midwest. I'm pretty sure somewhere out there there's a 4-way stop with 4 people sitting there waving each other on. And they've been sitting there for DAYS!
