    Easy Kegs and Mini Kegs

    I use a similar system(Tap a Draft, which uses a plastic tap and PET bottles). I've had beer Natural Carb in my storage space for months and still be drinkable(and in the case of a Citra APA a couple years). After tapping and leaving it in the fridge, I've left it there for a few months while...

    Pumpkin Spice Beer not so Spiced....

    Chuckcomm, I did the same as you this year (same as I did last year). More or less added it to the priming sugar solution. Sadly, in my test bottles I've noticed a complete lack of spice character. Now I mini-keg 3 gallons before I bottle. I hope that the kegs at least have some flavor...

    Masstoberfest 2014

    Sorry guys. I had planned to attend all the way up to Saturday morning. Unfortunately, we had a personal emergency at home, and I had to scrap my plans. Maybe next time. Looks like it was a good time.

    I'll need to stop by a shop on my way. I need to pick up a new fermentation bucket, so I can pick one up if needed.

    How do you keep notes?

    I used to use iBrewmaster on my iphone(and my wife's tablet), I'm currently using beersmith for android on my tablet and phone. I'm currently waiting for this: Brew Journal to come in. I'll likely switch to that in the long run. I also keep various recipes I use for reference or in case I'm...

    Masstoberfest 2014

    Yeah... I'm pretty sure my wife would try to kill me if I left that early because I'd be leaving her with my 5 month old, and 7 year old neither of which had woken up yet. Good to know that it's pretty much show up whenever. On the plus side I convinced her to bake something for you guys...

    That should be interesting to see. They did it on that show Brew Dogs with lava rock, but I'm looking forward to seeing it in person.

    I"m interested in one. As a heads up I may not be able to get the payment out until Friday, I figured it would be only fair to let you know.

    No Chill Brewing

    I just had to do this for my pumpkin Ale I brewed a couple weeks ago. After about 30-40 minutes I couldn't get the wort temp below 100*. So I tossed in the fermentation bucket, put the lid on, and sealed the airlock hole to prevent any nasties getting to it. I waited a couple of days(I likely...

    2 hours in to the process

    My now 7 Year old daughter asked a couple of years ago. I answered her honestly and as basically as possible. I told her that there are bad people in the world and that those bad people sometimes try to do things that hurt our country and kill our people. I left it there until she asks more...

    How do you get O2 in your wort before pitching?

    I pour and stir depending... The last one I did, I did the stir and pour, but the temp wasn't low enough so I had to let it sit for a day or so before pitching. When I did I stirred again just to be sure there was some oxygen for the yeast to use.

    Masstoberfest 2014

    Nah I'm good... I certainly don't mind contributing to a good cause. Just need to make sure all my ducks are in a row, and I have everything I need. I'd hate to get there and find out I forgot something. I'm going to try to get my wife to bake something, she's quote the baker... maybe some of...

    Masstoberfest 2014

    I did forget to mention I'll likely bring some of my homebrew as well. Though, I'm currently running low(8 gallons at the start of last winter, to less than 2, most of it is a high abv winter/christmas ale from last year)... Sadly a very pregnant wife, then a screaming infant tends to lend...

    So... I'm just catching up on the thread, my 5 month old son keeps me busy. Plus back to school for the 7 yo. Not to derail the excellently witty banter, but I wanted to make sure I know what's going on. So anyway, the entry "donations" appear to be as follows: 1) bring your brewing...

    Who buys kits & who assembles their own ingredients?

    I buy a kit when it's something that sounds good, or I want to try, or has an ingredient that I've never used(some examples are a Citra Pale Ale - never used Citra hops, and they were almost impossible to find that year, and a Coconut Lime Session Ale - coconut extract and lime peel). Other...
