End of the world old school design hand pump for a corny keg. It might oxidize the beer but I will still get it out of the keg.

I use mine to pressurize kegs full of cleaner or sanitizer so I don't have to use CO2 to clean my lines.

What's your ground water temp right now?

Brew on

 

[InspectorJon]

Low 50s. That part of your body is not so temperature sensitive. I travel to Southeast Asia a lot and these are everywhere. You can still get one on Amazon. For now . . . I hear our TP is made in China.

Their prices are great but I've heard mixed results in their malt. Sounds like they work for you, so that's all that matters!

I wonder if they export only from the "mainland" malthouses, while we in finland are getting from the finnish one.

Steam slayer, heating element. Getting close to finish my electric build..

I think the majority comes here from Lahti. Works great for me.

 

[Saunassa]

My order of starsan and 5 pack of Nottingham yeast. I have enough ingredients on hand now to shelter in place.

Christmas in Tucson. If the world ends, I won't know it.

if you actually need calories from that, it won't last long.....(not that beer doesn't have a lot of b vitamins too! liquid bread after all)

I have meat for calories, just need beer to wash it down.

 

[bracconiere]

If it's not in meat, eggs, cheese, jalapenos, or beer, you probably don't need it.

i humbly disagree.....i tried that for a year, had bursting ass abccess, puking blood....(although my will to live is low, i didn't want to go out with ass pussy )

I'm all set for the 4 week lockdown after finding this on the doorstep, 600gms of hops and a couple of packs of yeast too.

Bit worried about the guy who signed for it though.

I believe so, I think you sent me that at one time.

 

[burntchef]

Nothing. That is the problem. Anyone have any info on morebeer? I orderd Saturday and no response. The website says be patient.... I am calling today, if I get any info I will pass it along.

I happened to order from them Saturday also and have had no other communication other than the order confirmation you get when the order is placed. If you get any news, post it up.

 

[BongoYodeler]

Seems to be a trend. I ordered from AiH over the weekend and also no response other than my automated order receipt. But that's kind of normal for them I've noticed. I'm learning patience and perspective in this new virus age though.

Got a new 0-15 PSI pressure gauge for my CO2 tank/regulator I use for pressure transfers and my counter-pressure filler. It had a 0-60 PSI gauge on it so was hard to dial down to the 2 PSI I need for pressure transfers.

If it's anything like it's been in the UK, the online HB retailers were swamped as people started getting sent home from work - the guys who normally deliver next day almost without exception were taking 3-4 working days to get stuff out. Edit: one of the major ones here has now suspended orders, in part because they've sent home all their vulnerable employees and those with vulnerable dependents, but also they just needed to catch up on a backlog. For an idea of what it's like, see how it unfolded here : https://www.themaltmiller.co.uk/blog/covid-19-delivery-schedule-and-updates-please-read/

Just be gentle on them (and their couriers)- they will be doing the best they can. At the end of the day, I'd rather the logistics system was prioritising stuff like medicine and soap, in comparison it doesn't really matter if our brewing order takes a few days longer to get to us.

Also, be kind to delivery guys and if possible leave a box outside the door for them to drop stuff into, try and minimise the amount of contact they have to have with you.

NB finally shipped my sack of malted grain. Exactly one week after it was ordered. The website says they are slammed and to expect a delay.

I believe them and a few more days isn't that big of a deal.

I had the same delay on my last order. They apologized by email and sent me a $10 coupon.

I had gotten some stuff sooner than expected about a week ago. They could have a smaller workforce by now. And it seems many are getting busier with brewers stuck at home.

Got this today. My youngest is into football cards figured this would keep him occupied for a couple days while off school.
