    If you could have any object turned into a tap handle, what would it be?

    Anything? I'll go with the still beating hearts of my enemies. Those would be a conversation starter for sure.

    Group buy in Chicago?

    We do group buys for our club in Plainfield IL. Unfortunately, you need to be a member to join them, but perhaps some of you are looking for a club too. http://www.palebrewers.org/

    New to kegging

    I leave mine on all the time. As long as you don't have any leaks, you're fine. Force carbing doesn't use any more CO2 than the set-it and forget it method, but once you're don't carbing, you will only use the C02 you need to push beer through your serving lines - and that's not a lot.

    Arguing with SWMBO...my turn

    Totally wrong. I'd expect my wife to be pissed at me if I pulled something like that and I know I'd be pissed at her if she did that to me. It's not like you were doing anything important - Family Guy isn't even funny anymore. I could see if you had a meeting and needed to leave, but you...

    If you could buy one grain in bulk?

    I like Maris Otter and Golden Promise better as a base malt than standard two row. I also use a lot of Belgian Pilsner. You can't go wrong with a base malt. Just pick the one that you like best.

    Trade: My two 5 Gallon Cornys for your 3 / 2.5 Gallon Corny

    You realize that the little ones are worth a LOT more than the 5 gal ones, right?

    We're getting a decent amount of interest. The first meeting was small, but a lot of fun. Can't wait for the next one

    Flooring for Finished basement

    Take a look at acid staining. I almost did this, but went with carpet instead. My main reason was the COLD floors. http://www.wikihow.com/Acid-Stain-Concrete

    You gotta check this out.

    Those were taken off the shelves for a while because they were deemed "insensitive". Not sure what changed.

    Phase 2 brewery build progress shots

    That is one of the coolest things I've ever seen. I have no idea how it works and what 3/4 of that stuff is for, but that doesn't make it any less impressive. I need to see a video.

    My bar project

    It's a bit of a pain, but I'd rather do that than have the taps really low. The platform is wide enough to stand on and I have a handy stool as well - so it's not too bad. I'm also 6'2", so that helps some.

    My bar project

    Here are a few shots of the back room... It's basically a collar on a freezer - just backwards. I had to put it on a platform to get the taps to a nice height. I also have the drain plumbed to the sink drain so I never have to mess with it. This is the back of the freezer. I build a...
