    DIY stirplate magnet orientation

    It's a bit old, but I'm curious.. Which magnet setup worked best? I've been having a lot of trouble with my stir bars being thrown lately so I have been researching methods to update my stir plate to function better.

    What's the worst craft brew (commercial) you've had?

    Founder's Backwoods Bastard. If I wanted a big glass of watered down bourbon, I would have purchased a glass a bourbon and a glass of water. I didn't pour it out (never poured out a beer), but I came pretty close. Incidentally, I adore the Dirty Bastard. That's a fine beer.

    exersises for arthritic neck?

    Get a good pillow. I'm still trying to find the best one for me, but if I use the wrong one, I am in agony for days. Only other thing I can suggest is tylenol and a heating blanket.

    Brewery Job

    (Didn't read the entire thread, so if this is a repeat, please ignore.) If you really want to get your foot in the door look for small town breweries. They don't pay much but it's hard to find people who want to work there. Another option would be volunteering at a small brewery to get your...

    Hop Stoopid

    I know it's an old thread but I figured I'd add this recipe in... I received it in an email from Lagunitas about them holding a "homebrew challenge" where they will see who can brew a beer closest to Hop Stoopid for NHC this year. They provided the following recipe guidance:

    This is how big your Mash Tun needs to be

    I know you posted this 2 weeks ago, but I figured I'd answer as I was wondering the same thing when I first built my mash tun. I actually have that exact same cooler and do 5 gallon batches and I love it. If you're really worried about the head space, you can cut out a chunk of foam that will...

    Really stupid star san question

    It would be 0.2 oz, actually. It's 1 oz for 5 gallons. That would also equal out to being just shy of half a tablespoon.

    Question for you cat owners

    lustreking is on the right track. My wife's cat used to used the bathroom on the couch and the bed and pretty much anything that she could stand on top of. The problem was that the litterbox was not being cleaned enough. Scoop at least once a day. Twice would be better.

    Refrigeration time

    Depends on when I need the beer.. If I don't need it until the next day, 24 hours minimum. If I'm thirsty now, 30 minutes in the freezer.

    WTB growlers

    I'd have to measure the growler and find a box for it tonight to know for sure, but it is looking like $15 - $20 to ship. $15.45 if I can fit it in a flat rate box.

    WTB growlers

    Pictures: 1) http://i1090.photobucket.com/albums/i363/jegibson0322/IMG_4579.jpg - Shows the image on the growler. Notice the chipped paint on the "Br" in "Brewing" and along the circle on the outside. (Ignore the dust. It has been on top of the fridge since it broke) 2)...

    WTB growlers

    I'm at work now so I'll take a picture of the actual growler tonight when I get home. You can view a picture of one on their website, though: http://wolfhillsbrewing.com/main.php/. The growler is in the main image. If you'd prefer a whole one I can send you one for $20 (price of the growler)...

    WTB growlers

    Do you want only working growlers? I'd be willing to part with one of my Wolf Hills growlers for the price of shipping. My wife dropped it on the floor and the hinge on the ceramic cap broke so it is not useful for filling, but you won't see many of them as it is a local brewery. I can provide...

    HELP!! Are my bottles going to explode?!?!

    My guess would be that they are alright. 12 oz bottles should hold about 4 volumes of CO2. Of course some 12 oz bottles are thinner than others and some may have minor defects that won't be noticed until they blow up. For safety's sake I'd suggest opening one a day or every other day and...
