Welcome aboard the SS Obsession! Plan on some long sleepless nights reading and worrying about your new hobby!

Small local breweries may sell you some if you chat up the head brewer. Just scored a lb. of amarillo a few weeks ago.

With regard to inventories being subtracted, when you have the recipe page up on the screen, look to the upper left control buttons. The second one in says "remove from inventory" It will then subtract form your total inventory. Have a great brew day!

Check with your local breweries. These guys like to chat about beer, and taste home brew! I found one that will sell me just about anything I want in any quantity I want. Just picked up a lb. of Amarillo for $16!.

Ditto on racking through the bag. Work like a champ. Have a Pliney the Elder going with 8 ozs. dry hops right now. Can't wait to keg!!!!! UGGHHH!!!!

Never had the real thing but...I'm on my 3rd round of a Pliney clone. 19 oz of tear your face off hops in mine! I prefer mine mashed low for dry finish. This time I have a little more malt backbone to smooth it out. I love hops! Just unloaded 4 lbs. into the freezer!

I always mix my grains together, and seem to get a good crush on everything with factory settings on my BC. I'm always open to trying new methods though.

Welcome to the beautiful nightmare! I'm just down the road in Lawrence, I brew a couple times a month on a keggle system in the garage. Everyone's always welcome to join!

I use a pump to vorlauf/clear the first runnings to set the bed. I recirculate it slowly with about 10 mins left for mash. When it comes time to sparge, I use a cover from and old LME pail. Coffee can lids work great too.

I vote him most likely to infect wort......

Hi all, doing a 10 gal. batch that I will spilt into the different flavors. Bought WLP320 hefe, WLP005, and have some Safale WB-06. The WLP005 is a definite, but which of the other two should I use? Thanks for the feedback!

Just the o-ring that helps "spin" the 2 grinding surfaces. Not needed. Mine lasted about that long as well. The grain will do the job on its own. Cheers~!

I feel the same way about the HBS charging huge mark-ups. Don't forget to chat up your local craft breweries. We have one up here in Haverhill that sells MO for $32 and Weyermann Pilsner for $35 for 55#. Just my 2c.

It pays to get friendly with the local brew pubs around you. I found a place that will sell me TF Maris Otter @ $32 a sack. Also Weyermann german pilsner for $35 a sack....Just ask, the worst they can say is no!

Got mine from Beverage Elements off Ebay. Great customer service, cheapest shipped price I could find, and all arrived in great shape with plenty of pressure. Check out their feedback!

Hi, I'm relatively new at all-grain brewing. I have done 4 all-grain batches. I am still dialing this in. If you have been brewing for a while and want to help out a noob, please drop me a PM. I have an outdoor setup with 3 keggles, a march pump, and a therminator. I'm looking to see if...

Buy one more Bucket and one more Carboy. Look on Craigslist. There are plenty of people parting out their HB equipment. You'd be surprised what you can find for little $$. Or wait for AHB to have another free shipping promo. Shipped form TX to MA with no issues. They have the best prices...
