    Does star san dry out your skin?

    Glad I checked this thread! Bottled on Friday night, did pottery for several hours yesterday and woke up this morning with the skin flaking and peeling off the palm side of my hands. I thought chemical burn, my fiancee thought it looked like fungus and made me soak my hands in lemon juice and...

    Any EBrewers in central Arkansas

    I've got a friend in the Central Arkansas Fermentors who has a pretty nice Ebrew set up. He's a (semi)retired engineer and did most of his own electronics and stuff. Let me talk with him at this weeks meeting and see, but he loves having people out to brew with him. It will be Friday before I...

    What are you drinking now?

    Schnieder weisse. Not a bad beer. Nice banana and cloves up front with a slight lactic twang in the finish.

    whiskey beer

    Your plan sounds pretty good. You may not get as much whiskey flavour as you would if the barrel had been used to actually age it. It should still impart a decent amount. I wouldn't worry too much about it stripping any tannins. They will still be present in the residual liquor. As far as...

    Liquid Novacaine 296 IBU IIPA

    So, I was pretty happy with this beer and decided to enter it in the state fair competition. I must say, I was surprised by the comments I got. Chief among them was a lack of hop flavour and too sweet. Also that it was not bitter enough or big enough to be an imperial IPA. I know I'm not the...

    IIPA critique please

    Admittedly, I'm not a big fan of Amarillo hops, but I like what you've got there. I second (or third?) the addition of some corn sugar to dry the beer out. It will help add a bit of crispness that helps balance out the residual sweetness you are going to have with a 1.023 FG. Also, at 64...

    Who's smoking meat this weekend?

    I'm brining some chicken thighs right now. I've only got a 22.5" generic round black grill, but I've had decent luck just piling my coals to one side and heaping soaked chips next to them. I need to get some chunk wood to try out different techniques.

    Funniest bathroom graffiti

    Similar to this, a common sight on a KC-135 (air refueler): If the boom is too short or pump pressure low, please taxi forward.

    Liquid Novacaine 296 IBU IIPA

    This beer has now been in bottles for a couple months and is really starting to come into its own. It pours with a dense creamy white head over a slightly cloudy gold with copper highlights. It does clear a bit as it warms, but I still wish the clarity were better. The aroma is strongly...

    To late for hop growing?

    It's not too late to plant new rhizomes this year, but don't expect to get any harvest out of them. Think of it more like planting very early for next year. :) As to where to buy them, I'm at a loss. Like you said most of the suppliers are sold out by now. :( Terje

    Hops are up in Arkansas!

    Just thought I'd let you all know that my 3 year old hops are up. One of my Centennial already has shoots over a foot long and has started training up the twine. As usual the Golding and Willamette are lagging behind with just a couple very small (less than 2") shoots on each plant. Terje

    Men who lack female supervision:

    Damn! my Google-fu is lacking. Somewhere I've seen a great picture of some scaffolding on a scissor lift, being lifted by a forklift, being lifted by a bigger forklift. Best I can find is this:

    any body speak Gaelic?

    I am not in the office at the moment. Please send any work to be translated. Google translate FTW! Welsh drives me crazy. It's like they just make up the rules as they go along... well, yes NORMALLY the y would be pronounced oo but it's before an f so it gets pronounced ou except when it's...
