I'll start by saying that I am in no way affiliated with Patoka Lake Brewing in Birdseye, IN. Been there one time. The wife and I were in the area today. We like to hit French Lick and Patoka Lake every year on our little anniversary getaway and do some local wine and spirits tasting at the...

Was just checking in after a long break myself. Honestly, I was hoping to see what all I had missed from bracc. Always enjoyed his posts and the handful of interactions we had. I could tell he really got a kick out of being a part of this community. He was also generous in his own way. He bought...

Thanks Inkbird! Love your products.

It's like a meme turducken.

Welcome from Southern Indiana!

Looks pretty good from here.

Inspired me to come up with a new term. A "brew tulpa" occurs every time a homebrewer is inspired by an absurd brewing related joke or meme in such a way that said absurd concoction actually becomes a reality. Although the term is derived from a concept in eastern mysticism, the brew tulpa is a...

I've got a lot of swing tops and generally like them. Cap seals are pretty cheap and easy to change, but mine seem to last forever anyway. Swing tops also have that "cool" factor. I started using regular bottles more after I built a diy bottle washer. (Hard to build something to wash multiple...

Happy to see love for Knob Creek. It's my go-to. My guilty pleasure is really cheap blended scotch like MacGregor and Inverhouse... Not even joking. I think they're great.

Ganon does take the form of a swine. This could confuse him or make him feel "feelings" that you could exploit.

Thanks! Haven't had time to do much more to it yet. Hoping to post some more as I go.

Sounds like a great idea and a cheap way to get some experience. Let us know how it turns out.

Finally got my nukatap faucets installed. Still need to mount the drip tray and get some handles. The fridge can fit two five gallon cornies with two shelves above them. I've got a couple of those oxbar monos. I think I can lay one on its side on one of the shelves. I'll post some more pictures...

Just reading this gave me high school PTSD. I gladly became an English major in college, and it paid off. I speak English fluently to this day.

I'll bet it's the same way I know!

Oddly enough, it's 100 hp to 1 gp. Goats are scrappy.

🤣 You got to it before I could edit!

I use a stainless spider that hangs on the side during the boil. Periodically I stir around inside it with my mash paddle. After the boil, I hold it sideways over the kettle and roll it around to allow the trapped hoppy liquid to run out through the clearer screen higher on the spider. For dry...

I was thinking some malts would react more noticeably than others. I just kegged a brew yesterday with special b in it. Should have minimal oxygen exposure, but might not be too bad either way.

Good observation, and yes I did have several other bottles and the rest of that keg for comparison. The flavor has only appeared in those partial filled bottles.
