Home Brew Supply on Indian Trail in Lilburn got in lots of hops. Their fridge is packed. They have hops that I have never heard of. They chhanged suppliers and are now selling hops from Hopsunion. The back of the Hopsunion pack says that they offer 80 varieties of hops. It looked like they...

A couple weeks ago I had to clean my Bayou burner. It had gotten real rusty and was starting to have yellow flames and was leaving soot on my brewpot. I scraped it and turned it upside down and banged all the rust out of it. Then I sprayed some general purpose spray lube on it, and it looked...

Dang it! I messed up twice today and got nailed by the mods. They were right and I was wrong, and yes this forum has rules. If anybody needs any drunken advice feel free to PM me. In the mean time I am going to lay low and hibernate.

Is it still possible to do an anonymous post? I know I saw it posted on here a year or two ago, but no luck searching today.

Just a couple or three things from brew day today.... Today in Georgia it was 82 degrees. I cooled my brew down to 75 before pitching. I folded up several paper towels into a pocket like a sleeping bag and taped it to the side of my fermentor bucket. Then I slid my temperature probe...

I have never made a wheat beer, but I drank one this week that I liked and thought I would like to try one. I have been looking at recipes for the last couple of days, and seeing mash temps of 149 for 90 minutes are recomended.... ..... after that, what kind of sparge temps should I use...

After reading some posts on here, keggles vs. stock pots, I bought a 50 qt tamale steamer. I could not get it to maintain a boil on my turkey fryer. Paid 39.95 + tax. Will sell for $30.00, but you better have a better burner than mine. Local pick up near Stone Mountain GA.

I am sure this has been done several times, but I just thunk it up. The HBS opens at 1:00 o'clock on Sunday and I wanted to get a quick start. I put my cooler in the back of the truck filled with 174 degree water and drove to the HBS. They ground my grains and I went out in the parking lot...

It has been really hot here in Georgia for the last week. I have read that some of you have made insulated boxes and put them in front of your A/C vents to keep you fermentors cool. I took a very warm & very thick patchwork quilt and put it over my three buckets. I raised the bucket handles...

For todays batch I was going to brew Beermunchers Centeniel Blond. The LHBS did not have any Centeniel hops, so I using all Cascade. I wanted to make a low ABV beer to bring to the lake for Memorial Day. I am going to use a coffee cup full of trub to jump start the fermentation so I can...

Is this wrong? My wife got mad at me because I got mad at my mother in law. After a couple days of fuming about it, she left. She said all I do is brew beer, drink beer and read about making beer on HBT. She grabbed some clothes and and left and went to her mom's and has been there ever...

I picked up a chest freezer yesterday that I scored on Ebay for $26.19. This thing is a beast. A 1960 Admiral chest freezer that weighs a bunch. I almost hurt myself unloading it off of my truck by myself. The main compartment looks like it could easily hold 6+ cornies and at 28" deep I am...

:( I was all set to brew a batch, but my hose is froze. It is unusual to be 23 degrees and snow on the ground in Georgia. I was hoping the sun this afternoon would have thawed it out, but no good. SWMBO is out tonight, so it would have been a perfect opportunity to sneak in a batch, but...
