Modern Times is pretty good and fairly close to where you'll be staying.

sold 3 of 4 items...marked down mash tun from $260 to $240

Hi All, Getting out of homebrewing trying to lower my cholesterol and weight and have more time with my kids. Local pickup only. SOLD - 2 tap keezer $400 insulated, 7 cf, can accommodate 4 cornys as far as I planned...just never got around to adding the two additional taps. Intertap, flow...

Hmm...when I was a teenager I'd just use wd-40...would work for a short while, then it'd need reapplication. That's how they get ya!

Have you thought about putting a glycol chiller outdoors and skipping the cold room? I've seen pro breweries do it that way. Not sure if you already have your Conicals with jackets or coils...

Hmm...depends on how much yeast character you want. I usually pitch at around 65F and every day increase by 2F until I'm at 75F, then the next day increase by 3F per day until at 85F. Then hold at 85F for 3 days or so... Then test gravity. If you like the flavor then chill and package. If you...

Widmer Hefeweizen. Not that the flavor is bad. I just had to much of it once when I was younger and learned one of the reasons why German brewers say "Weißbier, Scheißbier". Can't get the association out of my head...just don't enjoy it anymore.

I've got the basic loc line setup (just one inlet and one outlet). It doesn't cause channeling, doesn't clog and has been very durable (threads too). I usually put the outlet just beneath the mash surface pointing sideways...then I keep flow rate high during recirc and slow during sparge. My...

I agree with the beam balance idea. A somewhat round rock and a stick would do in a pinch as long as you can find some consistent sized shells or pebbles to use as your counter weight. That's the old method is to just adapt your brewing method to "eighty shells of hops" or "10 stones of...

I won't put up any labels for the below, but I'm sure you could find some good images to go with them. "Cream Yourself - Cream Ale" "COVID tan - Pale Ale" You don't work for the man, so no marketing or legal department will get after you for these "in your face" names. Enjoy your beers! 🍻

All my relatives who told me they "knew how to drive stick". But seriously CO2 issues suck. The equivalent would be if you bottled, your bottle opener breaking, not having another and none of your neighbors have one and you need to go to a specialty store to get one (i.e. not just any...

Cool! Beautiful area! Thanks for sharing!

Don't you hate it when you decided to take your brewery apart for an upgrade...and halfway through said upgrade, you just wanna brew on any equipment!

tbh if u already have a trash can over it before you take it off id bang the trash can against the 6 pack a few times. If any explode then, you just dodged a bullet. If they don't explode from that then I'd bet you'd be safe handling them to uncap. I'd also recommend some rubber gloves or...

Ive found that using the San Diego water quality drinking report and supplementary mineral report in Bru'N water doesn't give me my desired results (but I've never gotten an analysis of what's coming out of my specific tap). Gonna spend that money towards an RO membrane instead. For now I...

If you can drink that you can drink anything!

I've never brewed a lot of beers that I like... In order of most immediate 1. Russian imperial stout -currently have the ingredients 2. doppelbock - finally got flask big enough for starter 3. Sour - at some point I'll do this when my brain has enough space to think it thru 🙄

My new nextdoor neighbor is growing ghost peppers as well as habanero, scotch bonnet and jalapenos. I share homebrew with him, looking forward to grilling wings in a while after the hot sauce is ready... 🍻☺️

I don't have access to hot tap water next to the brew rig. but I do have a hose nearby. I've rigged up my mash tun with a flexible diptube (part rigid part flexible), so I just bend it back and lift up the false bottom and pull it out and spray it all down with the hose. Then I run hot pbw and...

I'm sure it's been said 1,000 times, but after 3-6 beers, who can tell the difference between a blurry photo and a clear one.🍻😁
