Just wanted to show off the IPA I made for my buddy's wedding. He and his wife to be made the labels from myownlabels.com. I made and bottled the beer. The beer's name is something I've seen used quite often but it's quite catchy and they liked it.

Look on the bright side, You're getting a really great burner! I got mine a year ago and love it!!!!

I'm in El Paso and would definitely be interested. Please let me know!

I went with a multi-grain red from Northern Brewer. Used a yeast starter with it. Excited to see how it turns out.

cool, thank you

Thanks for the feed back. Ok, So are any of my original 3 factors relevant to my problem? I store in a basement... But that basement is in El Paso. So, it's about 73 deg in there. Maybe a little warm. Also, my concern is both these beers have low FG. If I've read on here correctly, Higher...

thanks

My last two brews have been very slow to carbonate. I've never had this problem before. The first was a honey weisen and has been in the bottle for over a month and has very little carbonation. In fact most bottles are basically flat. The second beer is called Speckled Heiffer (Spotted Cow...

Thanks everyone, I appreciate it.

Just a general question... I'm looking to start kegging instead of bottling. If I wanted to buy an entire keg system how much am I looking at spending? Kegerator and all. Basically, if you could buy a system with everything you'd need and for operation and convenience, what would you get...

I brew solely with the water from the Albertson's dispenser. Have made some decent darks using that water. The first all grain I did out of the tap was a nightmare! Never again. Just finished a speckled heifer from NB today and that turned out great too. I do 10 gallon batches and I can get...

I have the Blichmann. It was an xmas gift. But love it and couldn't see using anything else. Nothing against the Banjo, just haven't used it.

I have a Blichmann conical with standard fittings. I love it. Although I've never used the tri clamps, I find the standards are easy to use and clean. Just my opinion. At the time I couldn't see spending the extra $ to get tri-clamp fittings. Again, just my opinion. I'm completely satisfied.

Good point. Just something I had thought about... Not sur it worth ruining a conical over. Thanks.

I thought about putting one of those on a fermenter and keeping a hydrometer in it for an ez check on gravity while fermenting. Anyone have thoughts on something like that? just curious.

Recently I was at a bar that my buddy runs. We were talking about beer and in the end He gave me some pecans the were used to infuse bourbon. They smell amazing! I want to take these and incorporate them into a beer. I'm obviously thinking a dark beer. But not sure what kind. Anyone ever...
