I've been wondering what the hell the deal is with the time stamp for awhile now, and I've finally decided to find out the same way when I want to know anything when I'm drunk and lazy....ASK! Why are my posts like 5 hours ahead of EDST? Maybe I'm the jerk and I did something wrong. If so...

I finally got my hands on some Hoppin' Frog! So excited. I plan to enjoy them this weekend (by them, probably one or two...gotta savor it). I picked up Boris The Crusher of course, along with Fresh Frog Raw Hop Imperial Pale Ale, Hop Masters Abbey Belgian-Style Double IPA, Hoppin to Heaven IPA...

I'm curious how much everyone out there has spent on one trip to the liquor store. There is this store near where I live that stocks 1300+ beers, and it seems like I can't go in there without spending $150 or more. Yesterday, it was $161.78, but the most I've ever spent was $204.36. So, who else...

Although I'm not considering the endeavor of smoking my own malt, I have been reading about it. This got me thinking about the fact that I have some very highly concentrated (16oz bottle treats 960lbs. of meat) commercial grade liquid smoke that I use for wild game (mostly deer jerky). I'd like...

I'm currently looking into attending a brewing science program in the spring and was curious as to what people think about the different programs, such as Siebel Institute of Technology or U.C.-Davis. I've seen a few others, but these seem to be the most prominent. UCD is much cheaper and is the...

I can't believe the deals you can find at Hops Direct, Cherries Direct - available today from Puterbaugh Farms! I just bought 5lbs of hops for about $50! Shipping isn't bad either (I think it was just around $9 something for 3lbs). The hops range in price from $6.75 to $14 something a pound...

Has anyone else experienced poor customer service with Muntons? I asked them a few simple questions about their products a week ago and still haven't heard anything. "Shortly" my @$$.

I am currently on my third batch of beer and am concerned about the fact that there is way more krausen on this batch than there has been in the other two. Is it normal for there to be over an inch in the secondary fermenter? I'm probably just a worry wort (pun intended), but I feel like I need...

Is anyone else familiar with the brewing network, The Brewing Network.com - Beer radio | The Brewing Network™ for craft brewers and microbrews It seems like a pretty good source of information, and better yet, they have video and audio you can download. I downloaded pretty much all the "Brew...

I've noticed that on the cleansers and sanitizers that I use, they say that they should be mixed with warm water. If they are mixed with water that is ~60 degrees, is there any downside to this? I know it won't dissolve as well, but I guess I'm wondering if it still does its job or not?

I'm curious as to whether or not you can use any kind of CO2 tank for kegging? I have a fill station that I used to use to fill up tanks used for paintball. Is there any reason that I couldn't use this/tanks used for paintball? I can get all the necessary fittings, gauges, etc. Just trying to...
