Awesome. Thanks for the advice, guys. Next step is to order the valve kit and get this puppy ready for a brew. I'm getting the feeling that HD is keeping these things stocked in the winter because of home brewers. :)

Hey, all. I searched the threads about this but didn't find a specific answer. It sounds like people have been using the HD Rubbermaid watery coolers successfully enough. But I am just curious if it has the same thermal properties as an Igloo 10 Gal cooler. Will the Home Depot cooler keep my...

I hope you have some homebrew in the fridge to take the edge off. That's a double whammy. Ouch.

When you gather the courage to build your own bottle tree and wort cooler.

I got ripped for posting something without searching first last time. So...I searched...and searched...and didn't see this anywhere. I hope. Please be gentile. Anyway, I came across this on the interwebs and the spot lives up to its title. It is indeed one epic beer commercial. Enjoy.

If you clean it they will come.

Pardon me. To much home brew, I guess...

I came across this article today detailing GW's home brew recipe. Thoughts? Enjoy! http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/8495680/George-Washingtons-beer-recipe.html

Great advice, guys. I'll be sure to pass on your tips to our brewmaster and see what he can add to the conversation.

Amazing how a simple book under the carboy could solve all my problems. [Slaps forehead] Thanks for the advice, guys.

What advice would you have for a guy about to do his first all grain brew based on your own experience? My friend from Michigan is in town and brought his gear for a full up 10 gallon all grain. Despite his knowledge and guidance I am looking for tips and tricks to have a great brew day...

Hey, all. I have been getting into HB by brewing Brewers Best kits to get the feel for the process. I'm looking forward to doing some all grain recipes but in the meanwhile I want to get good technique on the mechanical stuff before going all out. One consistent problems I have had is...

Oh, wow. News to me. Sounds like a pretty cool idea.

My friend sent me this article about a mobile bottling company. Very interesting. I can see this coming to the States with craft brews on the rise. http://www.springwise.com/food_beverage/tomwood/

Saw this today. Thought the HB crowd would enjoy it. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ac/20110305/lf_ac/7999732_australians_invent_space_beer

Hey all, I was searching for bottle tree threads and came across some from back in 2010 but didn't see much current discussion going on about them. I was itching for a DIY project and thought that might be a good one to try out since I have a batch ready to bottle and no good place to dry them...

Okay, cool. I see those freshness dates on different store bought beers and that made me wonder about the shelf life of a HB.

Hey all, I'm new to brewing and am just wondering if there is any ballpark rule of thumb about how long different types of HB can sit in a bottle before turning to the dark side. I'm storing my first batch of Imperial Pale Ale in my dark, cool basement in brown bottles. As I make more batches of...

Thanks for the advice, all. Sounds like it's a pretty popular hop variety. Is there a particular way I should store it? Right now its just in the baggies sitting in my boil kettle in the basement. Dark and cool. How long can I expect it to last?
