    Texas Ball lock kegs, 5# CO2 Tank, CO2 Regulator

    Texas Houston-Katy Carboys, Co2 bottles, keg, etc...

    I've decided to sell some of my brew equipment. Everything for sale I bought brand new. I am selling because I just don't have the time to brew anymore due to wife, kids, work, etc. I am willing to ship the smaller stuff, but the carboys, keg and bottles are local pickup only. The bottles...

    What's the best self-propelled lawn mower?

    So my Toro front wheel self-propelled mower crapped out on me again. I've had it for 6 years now and I have replaced the gear box for the self-propelled 3 times now. I'm ready for a new mower. I'm looking at this Ariens self propelled. $749 is a lot of cash, but I don't mind spending it for...

    Am I over-reacting? Safety issue..

    I am having some contractors do some work in my house. I walked outside and saw this. I told them they are not plugging that p.o.s. into any more outlets in my home. Probably would have been fine, but I like my house and I don't want it burning down. So, am I over-reacting?

    Dead yeast?

    I got my order a couple of days ago. As soon as the UPS guy dropped it off I opened it to get the yeast out to put it in the fridge. I payed the extra buck for a cold pack, but it was hot. Yeast is WLP840 and when I grabbed it, it felt like holding a cup of coffee! I guess the 105 degree...

    My first batch and results

    My first batch is a Liberty Cream Ale from Midwest. The full boil went fine and everything was perfect. Primary for 14 days, then racked it to a keg and put on 13 psi for 24 hours in my kegerator. My patience wore thin (which I know this is probably the problem) and decided to force...

    New Brewer. Thanks HBT!

    First of all, thanks to all of HBT (especially Revvy) for all the great advice and information. I have been lurking for the past month or so and finally decided I wanted to get involved in the forum. I've done 2 batch's so far, so I don't know if they are successful or not. Still waiting! (I...
