    Noontime, are you suggesting I change the photos to a more sepia tone or change the saturation of the frame?

    Oh, and Bolero... That's an awesome idea. I'd totally steal it if I hadn't already asked everyone.

    I played with green a little per recommendation, couldn't find a color I really liked. Trish, I love the idea of kids pictures. I may have to have my mom start digging. Thanks for the comments and suggestions!

    Miller Lite Home Draft Dissected

    http://rap4.com/paintball/os/pistol-adaptor-p-1861.html If you cut a small hole to thread the SS tube into the dummy cartridge you could hook up a paintball tank, OR use the dummy cartridge to attach a normal kegerator tank. Just a thought, would be cheaper than buying those 16grams to force...

    Another reason not to bottle in a growler

    I've seen this happen twice with beer bottles. Once when two people clanked them for a toast and once when someone tapped another persons beer to cause it to overflow. The bottoms fell out perfectly. Pretty crazy to see, never heard of it on a growler. I'd really like to know what causes this.

    randomly carbed bottles

    I've only done a handful of brews so I'm by no means an expert, but it definitely sounds like it wasn't mixed thoroughly. I was instructed by a very experienced friend to dissolve 3/4 cup sugar into water, allow to cool, and then pour into my bucket. Then siphon my beer in, but to put the hose...

    Infected or just leftover krausen?

    How did it taste? Can you describe it better? Flat? Sweet? What time frame are we looking at? Relax, Don't worry, Have a Homebrew :)

    Final logo and first label

    Agree with the others, that is an AMAZING label, but there's something unnatural about the brewery lettering. If it helps any I think due to lack of texture. I couldn't tell they were supposed to be bottle caps until Kilted said something. Other than that, I wouldn't change a thing. GREAT WORK!

    Wedding Party Gifts

    I'll be getting married in June of next year and have decided to give mugs, bottle openers, and homebrew to my groomsmen. They all know I'm a beer fanatic so it kind of fits. Still working on a nice IPA recipe, but I've got 8 months before I need to really get on it. I've got a color laserjet...

    Nitrogen gas or N20 for stouts?

    Here's an interesting thread... https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f14/my-n2o-beer-test-116825/ What happens when you use n2o.

    Nitrogen gas or N20 for stouts?

    Not to mention getting a tank of medical/food grade nitrous would be darn near impossible. And the stuff they use for cars had a bittering agent so it can't be huffed.

    Regulator schematic anyone?

    No, but most regulators work the same way. Look online for paintball regulator disassembly. I would think looking at half a dozen different regs you should be able to figure it out pretty easily. If not you could always ship it to me for proper disposal ;)

    Water Filtration

    Really!? Everything I've read about RO said your beer would have a flat taste. So general consensus is use a carbon filter for chlorine/chloramine and if I get serious later I can start fooling with minerals and RO water. So I still wonder should I be filtering my water the night before...

    Water Filtration

    How necessary is water filtration? I've got a few brews under my belt now, I'm happy with them, but I've always borrowed a friend's carbon filter and filtered my water and let it sit over night before brewing. This was recommended to me, but I'm wondering how necessary it is. My friend is a...

    Need help naming my beer

    I pictured a bee hitting a cherry shaped Pinata and it called "Busted Cherry" the pinata could have suds or hops flying out of it too!

    Kegerator shank length?

    Which is a real possibility. I'm making it from a 1940's Philco fridge. Thanks for all the advice!

    Coor's Disposable Keg = Party Pig?

    Wondering, how thick are the walls on those 16grams? I've seen paintballers tap 12gram cartridges with a 1/8" npt fitting and then hook up a bulk tank to feed it. Maybe you could tap a 16gram and hook up a 7oz paintball tank to sit in the fridge next to it. Heck I know a machinist from my...

    Scotty Goes Bulnanas Label

    Ditto, Love your label, but as soon as I read the description I had to have the recipe.

    Kegerator shank length?

    Sweet, so a 3" should work no problems, but a little longer would be adventageous... *That could be taken a lot of different ways. :)
