I have two 1/2gal mason jars in a tub of water with a aquarium heater I had laying around set to 80* My plan is to wait till the ph is around 3, split each jar into two more jars each so volume will be 1/3 of original in six 1/2 gallon jars. Top off all six with sweet tea, ferment to ph 3...

I haven't pulled mine out of the cupboard in months. I was stoked when I first got it at SN brewery but the more I used it the more I didn't care for it. To me it makes a beer lose carbination way too fast. That's just me, more power to the guys who dig them.

Nice! looks exactly like mine do after a week. I started with a bottle of original GT too, glad to see someone else's look the same so it confirms that its doing what its suppose to do. Starting to look funky isnt it.

Carared is just another type of crystal if I'm not mistaken, so that would come 20% of your grain bill as crystal malts. Seems like it would come out candy sweet to me but I've never used carared. I made a red rye IPA that turned out nice and red, I'll have to look at my recipe when I'm home but...

Sante Adairius Rustic Ales is my fav, second is Firestone Walker. I feel funny buying beer though, I think to myself why?... I have ten gallons at home!

Most of my recipes have 1/2lb of carapils for body and head retention. I like using it more than crystal malts, crystal adds too much sweetness for my tastes in the final beer and it doesnt leave a cloudyness/haze like wheat can. I like a nice clear beer. I only use wheat in my saisons and a...

The recipe looks solid. I just did a SMaSH with MO and amarillo that we have been drinking for a couple weeks now and it's mightly tastey, I will make it again for sure. Mashed at 154 for added body with US-05, FG was 1.013, and I dry hopped with an oz. Head retention could be better, pours...

I would think it depends on how strong/sturdy your poles and cable are. If you can get away with less poles for all your plants then I'd say go for it. You have to consider the weight of the plants and if your cable and poles can handle it. I'm a kind of guy that does things overkill, I have...

Nice! Where did you order from? Sucks to have to wait, I have 25 coming, 5 each of cascade, chinook, centennial, Neo1, and columbus. I may have ordered too many! I guess too much is better than not enough.

My two 2nd year plants are just coming up but no where near as tall as in your pics. I read that you should let them go until about March then cut them back to the ground and new shoots should come up. You can let them go but they will have a poor harvest. I could be wrong so do some...

Sign me up!!

I threw in the flesh and zest of 5 mandarins in a pale ale a few batches ago and I thought it turned out great. I did put it in at the end of the boil so fermentation drove off most of the flavor/aroma but it still had just a hint of the citrus. I would make it again and maybe try adding the...

I would move the 20 min kent goldings addition down to a 15 or 10 min addition for more flavor/aroma. Other than that it looks solid to me, maybe bump up the flame out add to 1oz.

Good advice here. My resolution is just to enter some comps so I'm in the same boat. I just started reading Brewing Better Beer and it's got some really good things to think about and apply, I'm not even very far into it. I'm striving to nail down the basics and to be consistant this year with...

Nice! Didn't know it worked for SS, just found out about it on copper and that worked wonders. Time go go polish up the kettles.

thanks but looking for a dual gauge reg with only a single output.

Looking for a cheap dual regulator for a ghetto keggerator I'm throwing together for the summer. Need some ball lock quick disconnects too.

All I can say is WOW to some of your guys smokers. I love mine but seems I never get enough chances to use it.

First time hop grower and first year centennial hops. Only had room for two next to my ghetto potted garden. Haven't been this excited about a plant in a long time!

How much if picked up locally?
