This site is dumb..

Fred the Cat, is that you?

 

[grampamark]

Yeah, I’m surprised to learn that the OP is still using hops at all.

Gotta admit, that question crossed my mind.

Brew on

It's not as far out as the drywall

What a cute thread

Damn. I wanted to first.

I'm not a fan of putting hops in the boil myself, apart from bittering at 60mins.
I brewed the same beer, an APA, with 15min, 10, 5 and flameout hop additions, then again with all those hops moved to whirlpool and dry hop, then again with all of them moved to the dry hop only. In my humble opinion the dry hop only was best, followed by the whirlpool/dry hop, with the boil additions version coming in a very poor 3rd.
Now obviously it depends what you want from a beer but for me it was enough to ditch the boil additions completely.

So please stop it!

[...] satirical responses [...] deserving a lampooning.

Just be aware that "one gets what one accepts and promotes".

I am doubtful that lampooning posters is a good way to ecourage other people interested in talking about the hobby to stick around.

Link to AHA presentation (what year?) on the OP's subject:
https://www.homebrewersassociation.org/attachments/presentations/pdf/2014/No Boil Hop Beer.pdf

How does someone manage to come up with a presentation that badly formatted? Not even PowerPoint 95 could do that amount of visual damage.

 

[BrewnWKopperKat]

IIRC, during the time period of the presentation, one could purchase 'Microsoft Word' as a stand alone product or as a 'bundle' (Word, Outlook, Excel, but no PowerPoint). And Microsoft Word can be used to make presentation slides that, for most people, are "good enough".

Reply "withdrawn" as 1) OP edited original post, topic, 2) the topic was moved to "Drunken Ramblings & Mindless Mumbling", and 3) my reply was not appropriate for the mindset of the new forum.

 

[BrewnWKopperKat]

FWIW, the audio presentation has additional useful information. For those looking to minimize hop trub, filtering it before moving the wort into the kettle apperas to be an alternative.

Since the OP deleted and edited the original post and title, this thread seems kinda weird.
Please Delete.

Since we also moved it to DRMM, it's right on topic, again.

Please Delete.

That has it's own thread too.

 

[camonick]

Yep…
Been over there a few times myself… therefore goat.
I saw this thread the first day it popped up.

 

[passedpawn]

Got what you NEED!

The original thread certainly could have practical applications in certain styles, but not all as the original title suggested. (Please stop boiling your hops).

 

[BrewnWKopperKat]

And the AHA presentation mentioned in #9

Link to AHA presentation (what year?) on the OP's subject:

should be mentioned again.

I'll try to close out my involvement in this topic with this

I am doubtful that lampooning posters is a good way to ecourage other people interested in talking about the hobby to stick around.

Jinx!! I was just about to search for this page for a couple reasons,
1/ I do feel a bit bad about it, but not that much since it read like one of those 'just brewed a beer or 2 but since I'm 17 and the smartest person on earth I can reinvent the process all by myself and graciously share it with the peons" and his reaction to the heckling just kinda backed up that idea,
2/ In the A Box for your stuff? thread, @bracconiere tempted me to go off topic and I kinda wanted to because I too, look at all the details in pics posted anywhere just out of curiousity,
3/ In the Miscellaneous Equipment / Supplies - VANCOUVER, CANADA thread, we'd hijacked it because of the Russian FB stuff and had some fun, (which the mods graciously deleted without banning me, Thank You!) and the OP came back and was chill about the fun, like most reasonable adults.
4/ It occurred to me that folk like bracc and I with that kind of sense of humour could use a thread like this as a wrecking yard, to avoid OT'ing and polluting other innocent threads,
Plus: Threads like the 'ismellwierd', the pressure-treated deck-leftovers - would-be-Cooper, and the drywall and no hops dude threads all seem to be locked up.

PS: @BrewnWKopperKat Seriously, Thank You for presenting that concept as an option. On your suggestion, I am making sure to keep that option available in my next phase brew rig... I've hung on to that pdf. Sorry for annoying you.

wait, WTF happened? i had to un-haha the OP?

hmm, not sure how to feel? i guess the majority of us can continue to do our usual 60 min boiling of hops, guilt free?

edit: @Broken Crow as far as a temptation to go off topic...i don't even want to go there with a "Box for your 'stuff'" thread!

i just honest thought that was one of these, and it was cool...

Yeah!! Except, it really is out in the garage! That exact model is one of them.

...and NO!! You can still boil your hops but YOU MUST FEEL GUILTY ABOUT BEING SO OLD FASIONED WHILE DOING SO!!

 

[bracconiere]

YOU MUST FEEL GUILTY ABOUT BEING SO OLD FASIONED WHILE DOING SO!!

so like when you're remembering an old friend that's passed, and talking **** about them? kinda get that vibe, i probably shouldn't be doing that, but hell we were pals....

 

[Broken Crow]

Exactly like that! You have to treat your hops like you would a lobster in these more enlightened times, and express regret while boiling it alive.

i think we're getting off topic again!

i just need to remember next time i'm trying to kill a cockroach, to drop my 22lb bag of hops on it!

edit: in all honesty, i don't know what the f ever i'm going to do with those 2 bags of hops!!!!

 

[Broken Crow]

Mmmmm! 'Hazy-Cockroach IPA'

 

[Broken Crow]

i think we're getting off topic again!

Pay attention: This thread is now called: 'This site is dumb'..aren't we staying on topic?

 

[bracconiere]

Mmmmm! 'Hazy-Cockroach IPA'

like "Cocky Roaches Triple Marijuana infused IPA"

 

[IslandLizard]
