    encouragement/warning for new brewers

    Am I wrong thinking that what comes out of the MLT gets boiled for a long enough time to kill anything bad? Or is there just something left in the MLT that gives off a bad taste? I know that if I don't get rid of the spent grains soon enough they get to smelling pretty rank... and I...

    Need a Grain Scale

    Ok, so you got me curious... I put 1 dime on the scale and there was no reading (0.0). I put 3 dimes on the scale and it read .2. I put 10 dimes on the scale and it read .9. Took one off and 9 dimes reads .7. Hmmm... I guess for my purposes that's perfect! Or at least it's...

    Need a Grain Scale

    I don't think it was actually a retailer but rather a private party. It was still new in the package but didn't have the AC adapter. It works just fine off the battery, though. I just did a search for WeighMax and then looked for the scale with a max capacity of 35#. Catt22 - I did weigh...

    Need a Grain Scale

    I just bought a WeighMax scale off ebay for a great price ($12 including shipping)! It weighs from .1 ounce up to 35# and it even has a tare function. Looks to be a pretty decent scale for the price. WeighMax Precision Scales

    Dumpster diving for bottles

    btw - I don't actually "dive". I have one of those pickers that is about three feet long with a trigger actuated claw. That way I can pick up a bottle without actually touching it and inspect it to make sure it is not broken, cracked or chipped... or been used as a spittoon!

    Dumpster diving for bottles

    OK, I admit it. I do. But only after dark! :o There are a couple of the recycling bins (big like TRUCK size) about a 1/2 mile from my house. I ride my bicycle there and can load up about 18 bottles in a daypack. It's actually quite fun. I found a couple of 22's the other evening and a...

    If I'm wrong, I don't want to be right

    I bottled my Father's Day Brown today, transferred my Fizzyellawawa (for the wife) to the secondary and am washing some German Ale yeast right now. There's a nice cool breeze coming through the house and Jason Mraz is on the radio. It's a very enjoyable day!

    Old kits and Old Malt extract

    Yes. I bought my brew kit from a man who received it as a gift but never used it. There were 3 cans of extract that had expiration dates over 9 years ago. As a total n00b and no money for fresh ingredients (though I did spring for a fresh package of dry yeast) I figured why not try one and...
