Ok, i saw the age ones coming but where the hell do all these intelligence ones come from..... come on guys, you cant just make sh!t up to give people sh!t about!

Ok well I guess you can do that but it looses most of its humor like that.

We really should get back on topic before this thread gets moved/closed for being severely OT.

Back to what you should do with your tax return.
You could always get remarried

Sorry, saw them on my photobucket just now and realized, I should sell those I never use either of them anymore
 
So the most votes are for a freezer and a chiller. And it's half and half between counterflow and immersion. And I think the next vote down from that was for either a better bottle for a bigger pipleine, or a turkey fryer for full-boils?

I was always more of a Matrix fan.
 
What I do when i have money for the next purchase is well i just look at the list I have made up, But what you could do, is think of the part of brewing you like the least, and how do you change that part. Buy/build the solution.
 
get an immersion chiller. specially if you are inside. The 50' one from AHS comes with a kitchen faucet adapter. Just turn your kitchen sink on and it sends cold water through then back to your sink and down the drain.

I love my immersion chiller.

The fact that it takes me 2 hours to chill and 3 bags of ice. And that I always get semi-off flavors from fermenting too high forcing me to age my beer longer.

And also that temp control doing partials when I don't have access to an oven is a bitch.

And also that I always come up below volume, even when diluting my partial boils.

I have to stress the 50' if you go that route.
I bought a small pond pump and pumped ice water through my 25'. It still sucked in the summer

I'd say buy a 50' IC and either a chest freezer or at least build a SonOfFermentation Cabinet.

Please explain the lack of access to an oven.
I've never found temp control to be all that important on my PMs. I've found I only need about 30 minutes of semi-consistent temps to get the desired result.

Group brewdays when we're all out in a garage. I get readings all over the place. With an oven I'm able to regulate the temp fairly well.
 
I'm also thinking a digital instant-read thermometer might be an improvement over the analog meat thermometer. For cooking as well as brewing.
 
well I'm off all. Trudging out to the ice storm. Everyone be safe getting home if it's bad out. To all you nice weather people, Well, don't die, but don't roll your windows down either! it's just not fair.
