Right now, i am making 6 gals for $6,,, But I use 6 gal buckets that I have to process every week, I am hopeing to move to a 30 gal barrel, so that i can cut it down to to once a month instead of once a week. I am also looking into a cheaper sugar souce,, hopeing to cut it to $5 bucks or...

What,, no comment for the brewpatrol???

Are you serious???? You really think someone should THANK you for arresting them with a DUI???? You MUST be a cop. In NC if you blow, just below the limit, they will take you to jail and make your wait about 45 mins and then blow you again,,, The assumption is that if you are at the...

your probbly right,,, reckon I can get a liver on foodstamps???:ban:

You win a cookie !!!!! I do play a 5 sting banjo, I also play a mandolin and guitar. If I missed the point,,,that I like lite beer and cheap homebrew therefore I am somehow LESS,,, feel free to enlighten me??? Okay, bye now

Man , leave it alone,,, As long as it don't smell worse than the bubbles coming from your co-worker after a Dbl cheesburger at lunch.... go play with the ole lady and give it time to work,,, its FERMENTATION after all

I ain't buying grains and hops,,, I'm making home brew,,, Grandma's Molassas, table sugar, and bakers yeat,,, I know it sounds horrible, but its about 100 times better than Bud Light Wheat,, or Bud for that matter

Thanks for making that point. Me too. What got me started in this, was , since the Gov took my job and gave me food-stamps instead... I got to thinking,, I wonder how cheap i can make my own beer(with food stamp items,, ya know, your tax payer dollars at work and all,,since I can't afford it...

I can see that,,,, but those unworthy ones of us that LOVE light beer, we need a bunch of buckets,,,, and I personally think that $19.00 savings is worth the time of drilling two holes

Thanks so much,,,, my LHBS charges $26 for a bucket complete,,, so even with haveing to buy a spigot,, its still way cheaper.

Point taken,,,,,, not agreed with, but taken

I think I'll give it try, as I turn a bucket every week (I have enough, I primary them for 4 weeks and then bottle) I use the brew master buckets cause I didn't see enough (entertaining) bubble action from the mud buckets (no rubber gasket on the lid), but when I dumped em after 4 weeks, there...

Why??? Everything in a drywall bucket is organic,,, the making of the bucket involves petroleum, just like the buckets in the LHBS. I understand the idea of "scartches" in the bucket,,, but don't see any differance in an empty mud bucket and/or a CLEAN bucket (stacked on other buckets). Can...

Thanks,,,, that gives me hope,,, I will try the bucket lid without the gasket, then, I can drill it for the air-lock, and I HAVE learned from here, that the air-lock activity is not a true sign of success for fermentation. I also have two types of air-locks,, one haveing MUCH more...

I am trying to brew stuff that makes Bud look stout, reckon they'd work for me??

Do you drill em and put in a spigot??? I have been wondering about em also. I have used drywall buckets to make wine with before (I do drywall so I have 100's of buckets), but in the last few years they have quit putting the rubber gasket in the lid,,,, thought of trying a lid from the...

I tried it about a week ago, I took one sip, and I was done, for the evening,,, actually thought about giving up drinking FOREVER,,,, It really tasted to me, like it had cheap ladies PERFUME in it. I have been hanging round this site for about a year, I brew LIGHT beer, and haven't joined...

I've been hanging round here for a long time,,, but I joined last night to reply to this post. I brew ,,, something,,, can't really call it beer, I call it Obama beer, (got a variation that I call Bailout-Brew, but thats another topic),,,, anyhoo, I use the 40 oz Miller bottles, They work great...
