usmcruz got banned then he came back on a diff IP using a not so nice username and spammed nearly every recent thread. Obviously admin erased his posts. He was on here only a few minutes ago.

What's going on!!?? Why do I always miss the interesting stuff. Can we have some edited / censored highlights?

 

[Orfy]

Bee-Gee.

I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

I'd love to visit places in the States but it's cost me $1000's to do so.
Swings and Round-abouts.

Blighty.

I only Saw happy mugs responce.

 

[BlightyBrewer]

Have you been to Rome Orfy?

It's a fantastic city. Well worth the visit.

I think so. The wife and I have both been, but pre-us...occasionally creates a little friction that we need to smooth out with some Venetian wine and orrechiette.

Good one catfish.

This has got to be the longest thread about bottling with malto dexatrin.

Well I think that maybe one or two people might possibly been baiting usmc just a little bit...just to see if he'd meltdown or not. Unfortunately he went off a bit quicker than anyone thought, and everyone missed all the fun.

who on this forum would do such a thing?

I don't know, but I will say that of the two of us, it's not me who should be calling themselves a psychic.

I've been lucky enough to spend a week there. I loved it. I've managed Italy 4 times this year.
I think next time (if/when) I go I'd like to visit the lakes or the mountains. Sumer time though.



Come on the fess up, what was the deleted post about? It seemed to piss Happy Mug off pretty good.

Didn't know you're part of a double act El P! I've never thought of you as a 'sidekick'.
But what has happened with usmcruz? Did he fall off his swivel chair?

Edit - Sorry Orfy to try hijacking this thread to find out!

Excellent

Glad to hear your holiday went well enough, orfy. Welcome back.

Green mushrooms may be closer then they appear.

What are we talking about again?

That sums it up pretty good - my comment really wasn't appropriate. I had started a new thread to try to keep his comments contained. Sorry for the crude remark.

You have nothing to aplogize for...there were about 50 other people ready to jump him too.

To further derail the thread, where did you get the pick for your avatar, orfy? Put's a grin on my face every time I see the legoman mugshot. What is he in for?

I believe it was an absolutely brilliant seque involving BeeGee's toad comment and an old thread about psychedelic beer...I guess you would have to of been there.

I believe this thread was the last prebanned posts.. though his name now says "registered user", I beleive his IP's are blocked now.

On another board people wanted to know the status of my facial hair, so the Lego man is a facial hair indicator!

THANK YOU VERY MUCH EL P!

Seriously, I have been feeling very bad about how I behaved. I even put in an apology in general chit chat under the thread for this incident. I really was considering changing my screen name out of shame. A few PMs have made me feel a lot better about the incident.

 

[Catfish]

Don't feel bad Mr. Mug, there's good reason his posts were pulled and yours weren't; he was outta line, you weren't.

 

[Orfy]

Any one got the link to the original Marine thread?

BTW the Malto thing worked but I had to leave it for 3 months to mellow.

 

[oldschool]

You guys should PM each other if you want to chit chat. I'm more interested in the topic at hand. Additionally, roasted barley will boost your finishing grav, thus adding body while adding some color without a coffee taste like roasted malt.

 

[Rick500]

That's an odd way to revive an almost 4 year old thread.

 

[sleepystevenson]

yeah, it is....

But, I am interested in the original direction of the thread, as well. Currently have a Scottish 90~ kegged that overattenuated down to 1.007 when I was looking for 1.014 or so. It is definitely too dry. Maybe I could boil a bit of water and the Malto dextrine and add it to the keg??

Any thoughts??

 

[springer]

you could also just add some lactos. And hope nobody is lactos intolerant .

 

[sleepystevenson]

Yeah, I was thinking that (Lactose) before I stumbled onto this revived thread.

I wonder which would be best and how much to use per keg?

Anybody have any experience with this technique?

According to Beersmith:

Lactose:Not fully fermentable, so it adds lasting sweetness. Lactose can be added to lend sweetness to Sweet Stouts and Porters.

MaltoDextrine: Malt bases sugar that is less than 5% fermentable. Increases the body and mouth-feel of the beer and adds slight sweetness.

Use For: Adds Body
Amount: 6.00 oz
For Batch Size: 5.00 gal
Add To: Boil
Time: 5.0 min


I am leaning towards the MaltoDextrine at this point, especially with the Beersmith Info. Also recommended, 6 oz per 5 gallons...I might go half that to start.

I have 4 uncarbed kegs aging at this point and just hooked the 5th up to the co2 to begin carbing a day or so ago. I would assume this is probably best to do before carbing.
