Sounds like I'll go set and forget!! Thanks guys. What about tubing length? Same as the regular faucets? I'm planning on 6 feet of 3/16 draft tubing.

Good info here guys... I have my nitro setup ready, just need to brew the beer. One question I have though, especially for you beer gas setter and forgetters. Do you guys use a lid with a diffusion stone to help the gas dissolve?? My understanding is the diffusion stone helps the co2...

London III and hoppy beers are a match made in heaven. Just don't plan on that beer dropping remotely clear....ever! Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Nice. I'm thinking about getting my water in treasure lake tested for reference. I know my ph is similar to the Dubois water so I generally always add lactic acid/sauer malt to beers without roasted/Carmel malts. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Haags feed store is having a homebrew day on April 18, 2015. Keith will be demo brewing All grain, extract and BIAB. I'm gonna try and make it to do some yeast starter demonstrations as well. If anyone is interested pm me or call Haags feed store and ask for Keith. Sent from my iPhone...

Probably 1 or 2 times a month. We get together for bottle shares more frequently tho. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

That's pretty bad ass that you have a nitro setup. You should brew up a wee heavy. I hear those are nice on nitro. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

That's cool. Me and jester5120 have been brewing together for a little over a year. Have another fiend in Dubois we got going all grain too that isn't on here. I'm having a little party on the 4th. Got 3 beers on tap. Pm me if you wanna swap some homebrew that day. Mike will be there...

I did a Brett trois ipa with 74% row, 22%red wheat, 4% carapils. The beer wasn't thin and Brett trois pairs awesome with fruity/tropical hops. I used Citra, amrillo, centennial, and chinook. Just do a big starter. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

I stopped there the other day. They have brewers best extract kits/buckets/equipment. They have a pretty decent selection of basic grains. Minimal hop selection so far and a decent selection of WL yeast vials. I talked to Keith and he said he can order in anything we want basically. Sent...

Very cool. Jester and I are always hanging out and doing joint brew days together. We are both in Dubois. We'd be happy to share our beers and try yours. The first Saturday in May we will be doing another big brew day with a few others. Location is still unknown but I might see if haags...

I have made a hard sparkling cider from apple juice based off a brewing tv recipe and it came out pretty good but I wish I would have back sweetened because its too dry for my tastes and the ~3vols of carbonation doesn't help. I may give your grape juice recipe a go, then make a wine kit so I...

Cool. I'm thinking about trying your welches grape juice recipe as it seems fairly cheap and easy to start. Any other cheap and easy recipes?

So I've been homebrewing for a couple years and am thinking about getting some wine going as i do like a glass here and there especially with meals. I have all the equipment I need other than wine bottles and corks. Can I bottle wine in beer bottles and cap them rather than cork?

Cool to see more people that are fairly local homebrewing! Jester and I are planning another big brew day for next may on national homebrew day so if anyone's interested on meeting up then or prior let us know. Mike and I hang out regularly sharing home and commercial beers.

I've yet to do either but sounds like sour wort will be the way I go. The main things are keeping the wort at 110-120f and keep all o2 out. http://www.themadfermentationist.com/2013/11/sour-experiment-1-two-week-sour.html?m=1 There's some good info on Mike's blog (above lonk) and you should...
