use them as secondary fermentors or primarys?

I just bottled it, I know I let it sit in the secondary forever, but FG was 1022 so if i did the calculations correct 9.17%ABV which I am fine with 3 more weeks until I crack a bottle to try so I will let everyone know then.

If you want a cfc I have all the stuff to make one as I just made one for myself on Monday. I am also in Milwaukee. let me know if you want this otherwise I could fashion an immersion chiller out of the 25ft left of 3/8' copper, but a 25ft cfc will work much better than an ic of the same length.

Bay view is fun too. I have a good friend who grew up there and he compares where I live now (riverwest) to where Bay View when he was growing up. Also if you like good beer stop by the sugar maple they have the best selection in town. Also I will be stopping in for the grand opening, but is...

Only ferritic ss is magnetic not austinetic unless it is drawn into a wire. but still probobly ss most kegs are.

I had issues with getting my gas turned off right when I was going to bottle so I have just been bulk aging it. I plan on bottling this week so I will let you know.

I live in riverwest and it is a great community. Those two shootings this summer were isolated incidents, sadly one of which took the life of an aquaintance. I can say though that ever since I moved to this side of town I have had nothing but great neighbors and good times. Also a plus is that...

If you guys want some memories of those debauchours days, it is MURFC's 40th reunion in 2 weeks and we just got 2 books full of rugby songs emailed to us younger/current ruggers so we can warm up our pipes for the event. If you want a copy pm me or tell me how to post the books they are pdf's...

I play front row either hooker or prop as needed for Marquette Rugby. Also on a high note we just beat MSOE 74-0 yesterday morning in the first match of league play.

Fresh tomatoes and peppers are great for you and taste great, also they can be incorperated to make sauces which can help flavor things other than meat. Learn to love onions too as they can make any dish outstanding. To add protien eat more eggs, also stir fry is your friend it takes litterally...

How many miles you ride a week on that thing? Also 23# is not that heavy, mind you I am a poor college kid who rides steel frames, but how does the belt drive feel/work if it is rainy and it gets muddy since it does not have sprokets with teeth to push the mud out of the way?

That is sexy, but my heart is in road bikes not ss mountian bikes, it would be nice to ridein the winter though, but it is so damn cold here come January I am fine with just waiting for the bus.

Pappers - I don't really know. I had a pre-employment physical after the incident and the doc said that I was all good. Also thanks for the concern. EoinMag- I bought the bike used off craigslist, and now the manufactuer only makes Triatholon(sp) bikes which I do not care for. My local bike...

That is a little intense for me, I only due about 70-100 mi a week on my bike, also I don't want the bus system to go bankrupt b/c they are my winter ride.

Well last friday night I was hit by a milwaukee city bus while riding my bike. It knocked me over and I was scraped and have some brusies. It broke my cell, and then I also to the bike to the shop today to get an estimate. They said it is totaled due to the frame being 3/8" bent out of alignment...

Sparky I have let it sit now in bottle since 30th June, and decided to go back into the stash of them here is a pic of the final product

I am going to have to agree with TommyBoy,if you get a coil of copper and when changing the diameter of the coil you strain harden it to the point that you need annealing your doing it wrong.

Dude, if you only have two kegs use one as the HLT buy a cooler for like $25 for the MLT and use the second keg as your brew kettle and all will be good for you.

Thanks Sagan it was fun going to the brew pub tonight.(for all that are wondering we have known each other since freshman year of high school)
