    Robbed!

    Are you talking about the person stealing the GPS or the person stopping a criminal and defending his/her property and/or family and self?

    I have become a casualty of the economy

    There is no bright side to getting laid off. Now he gets to look forward to a ton more stress and waiting before working for a new set of heartless a**holes. Hopefully that transition happens sooner than later and maybe if he's lucky he'll make more money working for the new heartless a**holes.

    My new basement pub

    Rather than laminate, how about slate tiles? If you put in a pellet stove, you could use more slate to build a riser for it and even a mantle. I also think it would be cool to do a really rough cut, aged wood wainscoting all around. Something kind of like old barn wood! A pool table would be...

    This is why I hate Facebook......

    You forgot to quote their next post... "And no one should be allowed to live in a country that ISN'T a Socialist regime."

    Why is this SO light bodied?

    I suppose I could boil 6 oz with my priming sugar before adding to the bottling bucket.

    Strange find

    Ok, I have to find out how this turns out. Subscribed.

    Robbed!

    The back window of my truck was down just enough that two 16 yr old punks were able to stick their skinny snake arms in and unlock it last week. They took my XM radio, couple pocket knives, and (this is the kicker)... my PRESCRIPTION sunglasses! The scuz was caught by another homeowner after...

    Coors Light - WOW!

    It is a widely known fact that Coors Light has a gravity LOWER than that of water. I swear to God. You can look it up.

    How can I dry out this recipe more?

    I want to make a Guinness-like/Irish Stout with some guinness I soured, but I would like it to be a little drier and have a lower FG. What could I do to this recipe to "dry it out" more? 70% efficiency - OG 1.050 - FG 1.014 - 29º SRM - 4.8% ABV - 42.7 IBU 8 lb Maris Otter 1 lb 2oz Roasted...

    Why is this SO light bodied?

    So will it make my beer sweeter??? I like the flavor the way it is, I just want more body. How much would you put in at bottling and does it need to be boiled and dissolved in water first? Is there a "How to use Maltodextrin For Dummies" guide?

    Why is this SO light bodied?

    What does maltodextrine do?

    Kolsch question

    Definitely rack to a secondary before lagering. It will make a much clearer, cleaner tasting beer. Sitting on trub for too long can cause issues. I expect beer to be at my doorstep when I get home.

    Why is this SO light bodied?

    I think the efficiency had to do with the crush. I forgot to check the crusher at the LHBS for this beer. When we check it, we get 70-73% but we just forgot that time. My system is a 10 gal Igloo cooler with SS braid. Double batch sparge. I struck with 3.8 gal water, then did a double batch...

    Why is this SO light bodied?

    My very first beer I ever brewed was an extract Mac & Jacks African Amber clone from BYO magazine. It didn't turn out anything like Mac & Jacks, but wasn't bad beer either. Two weeks ago I wanted to try brewing it again, but do it all grain this time. So I pulled out the recipe from BYO again...

    2row instead of pilsner for kolsch?

    I would not use standard 2-row pale for a Kölsch. Like the other poster said, it won't be bad, but it won't be a true Kölsch either. The pils gives that correct malty flavor and crispness that Kölschs are known for. 90-95% of a grain bill for a Kölsch should be pils.

    I loooooooooooveee Bourbon

    Huge bourbon and scotch fan here too, but my tastes are pretty rich (Glenlivet Nadura 16, Glenlivet 18, Talisker, Glenmorangie 18, etc). I despise JD after trying much better bourbons like Makers, Woodford, Eagle Rare,etc. I just tried some Elijah Craig 18 year old single barrel.... OMFG that...

    King Kooker 30"??? a

    I also came across this guy... Bayou Classic Double Gas Burner Cajun Cooking Station : BBQ Guys I like it because it folds up for easy compact storage! A little spendier than the others. If anyone has any experience with any of these stand units, please comment here!

    Widmer Brrr Like Hoppy Red

    If you can nail that brew, I would want the final recipe! I love Brrrrr!

    King Kooker 30"??? a

    Are there dimensions listed for either of those? I wonder if they are big enough to support keggles?
