Touché

Is there anywhere I can get sanstar that isn't a brew shop? My local one is closed on Saturdays and I don't think I've ever seen it there.

Jeez no need to be a dick about it

Well a month after placing my order, 2 weeks after receiving the grain, and about 3 emails finally got a reply. The filter will be in their stock by the end of the week. Glad I had them ship the order without the filter or I'd never get to brew.

Was wondering if anybody has ever bulk carbonated in a plastic bucket then bottled. I have co2 to blast out any oxygen left. Just wondering if its worth the time, don't wanna try and have to bottle carbonate anyway if it doesn't work. Thanks.

Anybody know a good household sanitizing solution? Ferm went quick so I need to bottle soon but had truck problems so I can afford new bottles.

5 gal dunklewizen and about to be 5gal Irish red so 7484.25

Damn man, that's rough. Always number one on my brew day check list: plenty of "right now beers."

Also hop ball broke so spent time trying to strain out as much hop dust as possible.

3. Then went Hollywood and got me one of them fancy smancy refractometers.

So brew day today. Irish red. Total fiasco. Miscalculations, first stuck sparge(s) and 17 degree weather before windchill. Finally am at the chill 9 hours later. Compared to my first attempt at brewing, an alcohol fueled over zealous hard headed young mans pipe dream, this feels like Im head...

Loves me a pumpkin beer too. God about 20 bottles left of the 10 gallons I made back in november

Sounds pretty awesome if she comes out good.

Thanks. Ended up doing that. It warped a little cause I got over excited and cut it before it was dry. Dry now and still have a good amount of maple left so might try to Make another soon
