I, too, had a carb problem in the bottles. I went ahead and popped all the tops and transferred all into a keg. Added 3 more oz of brown sugar and that did it. I'm still going to let it mellow out for a few more months, if not years!!!!

They are opening up another Grapes and Hops north of spring lake. Close to me in Sanford, but they still aint got much of a collection for beer brewers.

I would have to say the best place to find out answers on this would be the FDA/ATF....check their websites for the info. I dont see a problem with it as long as everything you do is within the local code. Let me know what you find out.

How often are you brewing? I try to 2x a month

Pitbull-brewer, unfortunately, there are no good HBS in fayetteville, I always head up to American brewmasters in Raleigh. They are super knowledgeable and will help you any way they can. Yes its a drive, but worth it. I would have to say that the guys at Grapes and Hops are wine guys with...

I have one too, I just upgraded and dont need a 2 tap anymore. Let me know if anyone is interested

I just updated my tower to a 4 tap and have no use for this one. There are 3 small knicks on the tower cap and in no way inhibit its use. It comes with 2 faucets and the bolts to connect it to a kegerator. All you need is the connections to fit on to your keg. $125 I am in Cameron, NC

You could always buy bottled water, but I would make a complaint with the city. Hope all goes well either way

I would like to recommend Yakimavalleyhops.com for some of your domestic hop needs, all pellets. I have purchased and recommended to a few friends to buy from them. If you get a chance, check them out. Thanks

Nice. I think I ended up with 25 lbs and together with shipping was right at 85. Check his specials, lots of good deals there, plus they are all fresh. I cant complain at all with the quality and quantity. Great guy. I'll definitely order from Jeff again.

Check with Jeff at Yakimavalleyhops.com I get slot of my hops through him and they ship super fast.

I used coffee(espresso) in my very first batch, Redhook Double Black clone. It was great. Especially after 8 months in the bottle. I plan on adding coffee to my next stout.

Im in harnett co, near Sanford.

So I took a sample today of this and I have to say I was impressed. My wife doesnt like fruity beers and she was pleased with this one. The hops I used compliment the the watermelon greatly and I will probally do this one again. 3 days ago, I tried 21A hell or high watermelon and I liked it. I...
