I remember when I thought I was going to save a bunch of money reloading. But the need for precision digital scales, calipers, tumblers and whatever else I think is awesome adds up. I love my hobbies, ill drop some cash for something that makes me happy.

When I worked in commercial maintenance I cleaned machines with nickel safe and couldn't believe the nasty crud growing in machines that were regularly cleaned. On a side note, after maintaining pools and spas I won't use a public hot tub either :).

I have a half inch vortex on a one gallon lager starter right now, no need to go any faster in my opinion.

I regularly leave mine in the primary for 3-5 weeks then transfer. I don't like to stick even sanitized equipment into my beers so I like to keep gravity readings to a minimum.

Making sure the old stir plate is working, getting my lager starter ready for next week.

Does the fridge have a plate in the back that houses the refrigerant lines? Or does it have a freezer compartment that freezes and provides the cold to the fridge? My mini had a plate in the back of the fridge so I just took a 2inch hole saw and went right through the top, no problems. If it...

Many freezer will hold up to 110 degree heat. I lived in San Antonio so I am aware that 110+ is a real possibility. If you can give it some shade and its used or free I would roll the dice on it.

This has been done by a few people: http://forum.northernbrewer.com/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=89351&view=previous But it seems that foaming could be an issue with it; it does look awesome, and that is a requirement for my brewing equipment.

I put a kegerator in our breakfast nook when we moved, my wife said and I quote: "You should get a chrome tower for the top of that, I think it would make the nook look like a little bar." how I got my freezer Wife: where are you going? Me: found a chest freezer on craigslist for 50...

Once I established a good pipeline my lagers really got better; all my beers have improved in quality because they are not rushed to the tap anymore.

I love brewing crystal clear lagers in addition to my ales. I also love the challenge of brewing lagers in a controlled environment, and tinkering with making starters at lager temp and room temp in an attempt to perfect my process.

I use the Oster just like this one https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f35/oster-mini-fridge-102930 The gas goes on the compressor hump and the two cornies fit without issue, although I did have to move the thermostat control up, but that was only two screws. I started with one tap out the front and...

Based on shipping information I will not have yeast in time to make a lager starter for this weekend... So ill be brewing a starter on Sunday with the intent if brewing next Thursday morning.

I have been known to spray people with my sanitizer bottle.

Coffee, we attended my wife's office party and they had Fat Tire on tap- I had a few.... But found out my wife's squadron commander is a home brewer, so we shot the **** for awhile.

My wife has always supported me brewing, she is the reason I have a twin tap tower- "If it only costs another 50 bucks for a twin tap, you should just get it". I don't fuss about the stockpile of shoes and the zappos boxes that show up at the house, and she doesn't fuss about the boxes from...

Potential to get sidetracked for an hour or two each day learning about new brew processes and equipment.... I do agree with your list. I attended college online so I spent a considerable amount of time transferring that time online into real experience for my résumé. In all seriousness what...

I agree, I got really excited that my rubbermaid AG system didn't leak. I can do electrical work and plumbing, but I do not have the ability to building something of this quality.

I used to shop there all the time, great store.
