Who's Bon Ami? Is that the redhead on the Brewbabes forum? Kidding aside, I think I've learned more from this site than all the books, other sites, LHBS combined. AND - good recipes too.

Anyone know where I can get some of them bottles with cold-activated blue mountains? I need to know when my homebrew's at the right drinking temp!

Saturday I brewed my second All-Grain, BM's Centennial Blonde. I mashed in a little thick just in case I had to add some hotter or colder water. Meant to mash in at 150, hit 149. After a few minutes, it dropped to 148, so I added a couple quarts to raise the temp to 151. It dropped a...

5 more of BM's Centennial Blonde this weekend 13,656 + 5 = 13,661

Great recipe, BM! I made the extract version a few weeks ago, then my MIL and I tried it after it'd been bottled for just over a week (yeah, I know...). She didn't like it, I thought it was good, but a little hoppy. Wed night, now that it's been in the bottle for nearly 4 weeks, I poured...

My 2nd AG batch! BM's Centennial Blonde. I brewed this as an extract awhile ago for our upcoming 4th of July party. Unfortunately, made it a little too early, and can't keep my hands away from it. I don't know if there's going to be any left for the party. Luckily, I also brewed a...

After last year's GABF, there was an article in the paper about Homebrewing. I thought it might be fun to try since I like good beer, but really hate paying $8 a six pack for it. I asked for a beginner's kit for Christmas, SWMBO said okay, go pick it out. I actually made my first batch so...

Okay, here goes. I don't post a lot here, but lurk alot. I guess it's time to put mine in! For 2009, 14 batches, one a 1-gal. experiment. 13188 + 16 = 13254

My wife and I just got back from a few days there. The Triple7 Brew Pub downtown is pretty good. I got their sampler, and didn't have a beer I didn't like. The Flamingo has a decent bar with some local beers too - Sin City Brewery. Gordon Biersch, others I don't remember, but they were...

Looks pretty normal to me. Give it time. It'll be fine.

Try the Rock Bottom Brewery on the 16th street mall. Good beer, good food, great view (from the patio) and they give AHA member discounts. Also, Wyncoop in Lodo near the train station. Our mayor's former biz. Great beer! Have fun!

10 gals this weekend. 5 gal Honey Wheat tonight (nice light brew for our July 4th party). 5 gal All-Grain Pale Ale. My first AG batch! Got an MLT for my birthday so I'm goin' all grain on my birthday Saturday!
