yeah, i saw that same one on amazon for only $80 and thought about it too. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0009JXYQY/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20 There are just so many different variations. I see people have a lot of problems with wind. How's is this one on a windy day? I live in Kansas and...

I know there are multiple questions about burners on here, but I'm in need of some expert advice to make my final decision and have a few questions that I was unable to find. I'm looking for something cheap to move up to a full boil. I just upgraded to a 35 Quart stainless steel pot. Its 15"...

I saw these online and I was intrigued. While I don't really mind the sediment and don't find it a big deal as others. I do like the fact that I could make a 12 pack and take them camping, tailgating, or bring some homebrews to my friends without stirring the sediment up. They are rather...

Thanks. I won't bother topping off. The gravity reading was supposed to be appox. 1.051 and it was 1.055. Now I'm worried now about the lack of airlock activity. I know its not a indicator of fermentation but on my last batch I made a liquid starter and it took off after just 5 hours. Also...

Just a quick noob question. I brewed last night and when we were aerating we got a lot of foam. I though I had topped off enough because it looked like it was a little over five gallons. But I checked it again this morning and after all the foam dissipated it appears to only be about 4.8...

Sounds like we are in the same predicament. SWMBO is pretty cool since she's the one that got me my first kit. We just don't have a lot of space in the garage because we want to be able to fit a car in there, and putting a freezer in the basement just doesn't seem practical when we might be...

Thanks for the feedback, but I guess I'm still looking for a answer. Can I get a kegging system, force carbonate inside at around 68-70 degree temps (the amount of time it would take to force carbonate doesn't matter because I usually plan ahead), and then put it in the fridge a day or two...

I just got done bottling my second batch, and while I like bottles, its just to much work. I would like to get a kegging system but I don't have enough money for a freezer right now. Which leads me to my question - Can I get a kegging system, force carbonate inside at around 68-70 degree...

Or just do what I do. Go out and get drunk. Mix it up. Beer, wine, jello shots, jager, pickled eggs, etc., etc... Then hopefully you'll wake up the next day with a killer hangover and not even so much as want look at your beer. Just rinse and repeat until your 2-3 weeks is up. :rockin:

I would be interested in that club. I can't do it this weekend but keep me posted if you guys meet up again or let me know how to join. There is also the Parkville Microbrew fest going on this weekend. http://parkvillemicrobrewfest.eventbrite.com/ So much drinking, so little time....:drunk:

I'm in same exact situation as you (even live in KC). I'm waiting on my first stout to be done and I'm itching to get a 7.2 freezer and keg set up. I know SWMBO will freak out though. I got a IPA in the secondary for her and I'm hoping I can use that to convince her I need a upgrade.... Did...

+1 to the NHL. Best sport there is. It makes my wife mad because the only time I cry is when someone wins the cup.

Is the smell normal? I think that is the one thing that is making me so indecisive. Started brewing already so I think cold crashing and decanting is out of the question. For now I'll use it and let you know how it goes. Thanks for your response.

I love the forums here and have found just about everything I need. I just looking for some expert advice. I'm brewing in about a hour and just want to know if I should use the starter I made. I don't have time to cold crash or decant, but I have two more vials of yeast as back up if I need...
