    Dumb, dumb, dumb

    So I joined this forum years ago. I brewed a few times, I got sick for a few years and now I'm better and I want to drink some beer that I made. In between bottling a few beers and becoming ill, I have 2 carboys that have been sitting in our kitchen for the past 3 years (hoarders!). One...

    I am an IDIOT but you knew that anyway

    I woke up to the wife telling me to come into the kitchen. After wiping the sleepd from my eyes, I noticed that the Listermann malt extract Mild Bitter that I had brewed the previous day had fermented so much that the airlock had popped off as well as the bung (read: I was probably stupid and...

    Church Warden Pipes

    Any recommendations out there for a fine church warden pipe? I want to further fall down the spiral of disillusion by appearing even more like a character from Lord of the Rings. Now that spring is upon us, I need to do some outdoors smoking.

    Oops... did I just scratch my glass carboys?

    I was mentally getting prepared to brew Listermann's Bitter beer kit when I realized that the carboy I had just purchased has some ick on the rims and bell curve from the last guy whom I purchased the equipment from. I zealously used my "l" brush to clean the carboy and dumped the hot water...

    Brewing .... as a career

    Albeit it early for me to consider this seriously, I thought I might make a post about it. What does one do to become a serious career paid Brewmeister? My own endeavors have not taken me past toying with a Mr. Brew kit and asking the forum several (irritating) beginners questions, I am still...

    Stera-Sheen Restaurant Sanitizer

    Anyone use this stuff for sanitizing their beer equipment? http://www.stera-sheen.com/green-label-sanitizer.html Would it work? I found a deal to get four of these large containers for 25 bucks. I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask. Thanks...

    Moving, but not necessarily graduating, from Mr. Beer to a simple brewing kit

    Ok... I sought the sage advice of the forum and figured I would give it another go. I bought a Mr. Beer kit. I am unsure if I am happy with it, because it isn't finished yet. I knew that I would want to upgrade, so I went ahead and bought some more brewing equipment knowing that I would enjoy it...

    Mr. Beer Kits

    I purchased a Mr. Beer kit at the local Bed, Bath, and Beyond for less than 25 bucks a pop. I was wondering, before I opened it, if any of you have had any experience with this very introductory piece. I have never brewed before and don't have room for a lot of equipment since I live in an...

    Hoosier Transplant Living In Cincinnati, OH

    Hello all! My name is Robb and I am interested in purchasing a small and functional beer brewing kit. I have a place in my heart for even the cheapest of beers and have no interest in becoming a beer snob as any brewed drink can be sacred to the palate! As the Title states, I am a Hoosier...
