When I was working in Germany, I used to attach the coasters with the marks and the food cost as my receipt for the expense account. Nobody ever questioned it, although I am sure that there were a few WTF's?

My condolences seanjwalker1! The Detroit Lions are to football, what the Toronto Maple Leafs are to hockey (I used to live in Sarnia across the river from Michigan!). I was up at 4 am yesterday morning to start a brisket and since it was too early for coffee I had a Boneshaker IPA. BTW, the...

Off Topic - You haven't lived until you have had Chica da hora (Chica of the hour - so it is fresh!). I had some at a roadside stop in the back roads of the Peruvian Andes a couple of years ago. It was, how you say...interesting). I could have also had some of the roasted rodents that they had...

Thanks Hotbeer, I looked at a package of S05 that I have and it says that it works from 53.6 to 77 F, ideally 59 to 71.6 F, so I guess that it is possible, but I wonder about any off flavors produced at the higher ends. The beers that I am hoping to do are either Youper's DFH 60 clone , which I...

I am sure that this is probably a question that has been asked before, but I can't seem to find it, so forgive me if this repetitive. I don't have a fermentation fridge or chamber so I use a cold cellar room that is normally cool but in mid summer it has now heated up to 70-71 F. I don't want to...

I use a similar recipe for both back bacon and pork belly, except that I often use a wet cure and add maple syrup. After a 10 day cure, I soak the bacon for about an hour (changing the water a couple of times) to remove some of the excess saltiness. Dry it overnight in the fridge to create a...

Wow, I remember doing that when we lived near Detroit many years ago, Fortunately, the area in Ontario where we are now does not see many tornado warnings. Hope that you all stayed safe.

Gnomebrewer, I have the option of two different rooms, both of which have steady temperatures varying by probably no more than 1 degrees F of the mean. One room is at 73 F and the other is at 67 F.

My first post here, so I hope that I have the right section! I am hoping to start a Raspberry Wheat beer next week and need some guidance on yeast selection. I will be using 50/50 wheat/2-row and hopping to about 20 IBU with Perle or Hallertau. I will add the raspberry puree to the secondary...
