It finally happened. I was at a totally unrelated to brewing place and I found a score on beer making equipment. Well, I guess techinically it was wine equpment. It was a wine making kit in their bargain cave for $29. It came with a 7.5 gallon pale, a 6 gallon carboy, corks, siphon hose...

How much do you pay and how long does it take? This is the first time I've bought gas, but it took me almost two weeks to get my tank back. They had to pressure test and the guy told me they were behind before I dropped it off. Still, two weeks with the system out of order is a long time...

So that's the problem, my poppet is oozing out beer. I filled it up with my Arrogant Bastard clone last night and gassed it up to 20 lbs. It slowly oozed beer out all night. Looked like it was only a few ounces. I went ahead and hooked up my picnic tap to it. Is that the best I can do...

So, theoretically, what is the best way around a copy protected DVD? I've heard there was a pretty good program out there. I'm researching for a paper I'm writing. ;)

does anyone know a good, free partition software for Windows xp? I didn't give myself near enough room and it's killing me. Failing that, how do you change partition size when you reinstall Windows? You only lose the info on the partition that has Windows on it, right? Even if you resize?

I've got two BB porter kits that I'm going to brew tonight. My plan was to buy one tube of liquid yeast and make a starter so I could pitch both batches. Well, I bought the yeast but didn't make the starter. I guess my options are: 1. pitch one with the liquid and the other with the...

I dropped my tank off today and the old guy looked at the stampings like he was reading an owners manual. He showed me where it said how long since it had been tested, but it looked like there was more info on it. Anyone know what all info is stamped in there?

Since all of this post count d!ck measuring stuff's going on, I think we should brag about our time on the board. I know there are several that have been here longer than me but I'll start it out. September of 05. Back when the Dude was Orelse and the bleach debate was raging.

I have one of those big cast iron tanks. Not sure how to measure it, but it's about two and a half feet tall and six or eight inches around. It wasn't even completely full when I hooked it up, but I've got about 10 kegs worth out of it. It started out on 800 lbs and it's now down to about...

The turkey hunting was lousy in SE Oklahoma this weekend. And all of OK from what I hear. We hunted hard for a day and a half. We heard one hen yelp and I think we heard a gobble. The wind was brutal, cold and loud. Even if the turkey had been moving around and calling we would have...

Like Saturday night or something. We've all made it, we've all got it, let's all get $h!tty on the same thing one night. What about Saturday?

What's the least amount of copper line you think I could get by with? I want to go with the coil that you hook to your garden hose and drop in a cooler full of ice water. Would five feet actually do any good?

So how hard and why should I try out a partial mash? Seems like I've read on here how some one had just heated water and held it at like 150 degrees or something then rinsed it with a couple of gallons of water. Seems pretty easy. But does it make much difference? Do you think you can...

I've kind of based this on some recipes I've seen at Got Mead, tell me if you think it will work. 15 lbs. clover honey 96 oz. can of Vintner's harvest blackberry half a lemon water to make 5 gallons 2 packets champagne yeast I'll probably do a short boil just to be safe. A month or...

It's starting to get pretty good around here! I went in the liquor store a couple of weeks ago and noticed lots of new beers, then went in last Friday and there were even more. Unibroue, Acme, Snake Dog IPA, Great Divide, some $13 beers from Rogue and tons more! We've actually got...

Do any of you know a place to get cheap mp3s? What's the deal with those Russian places? Are they illegal even though they say they're not. I don't want to have to install Itunes and abide by all of their proprietary crap.

I'm not especially looking for pity, but I'll take it. I mainly thought you might enjoy my tale of stupidity. I voted at the annual election of my mutual insurance company today. I do it every year because they pay delegates $50 travel expenses, and it’s just a half mile from the office...

The episode where they brew their own beer is on right now. 10:00 p.m. CST, 12-18-06
