Bumpity bumpity. Come on, there must be somebody in southern VT, western MA, or upstate NY who can provide a good home for this thing.

It's more for your benefit than mine.

54"w x 17.5"d x 27"h It worked really nicely for me. I just got sick of being at the mercy of the weather, since I don't have a garage. I also have a poorly maintained dirt driveway, so I'd spend forever finding a level spot to brew and constantly worry about dropping hoses into the dirt and...

Any interest out there? I will entertain reasonable offers.

Heya, folks. I have some propane equipment that I would really love to get out of my basement, since I went electric a while ago. I'm in southwestern VT (Shaftsbury, specifically), so if you're in the general area and interested in either of the following items, please let me know. First up is...

Bloody Knuckles - Switchblade Symphony

Rust - Darkthrone

The Big Push - Rabbit Junk

Children of the Grave - Black Sabbath

Falling Up - Collide

Noted. I'll drop you a PM when I get everything sorted.

I just finished drinking a stout fermented with Conan that I cultured from a can of Heady. SG was 1.062, FG was 1.018, though it tasted much drier than that FG would indicate. Mash temp was ~154, 70% Muntons maris otter, then a mix of flaked barley, oats, caramel, and dark roasted malts. I...

That's pretty badass. I love industrial design. It would look great in front of a brick backsplash.

When the yeast manufacturer's instructions conflict with the kit instructions, always go with the yeast instructions. Rehydrating dry yeast is usually a good idea. I suspect the kits tell you not to do it because it is an opportunity for infection. Just be careful; use a sanitized container with...

I ended up ordering a set of shanks and tailpieces. I'm going to build an insulated box on top of my kegerator and mount the taps on that. It'll give me room for longer beer lines (I currently have trouble squeezing 5 ft of line in the kegerator when all my kegs are in there), and give me a spot...

On my first all grain batch, I added the grain to my tun first, and then added the water on top of it. I plugged my false bottom up completely. My attempts to fix it just made things worse. In the end, I had a 10 hour brew day, with a small amount of very low gravity wort. Not a great start.

Just pitched the yeast on my last batch of the year: a Russian imperial stout. 59,279

I Just finished Iain M. Banks' Consider Phlebas (loved it) and have started in on GRRM's A Dance With Dragons. I have PKD's The Man In High Castle in the queue, along with Hops and Water.

One of my Yule gifts was a set of chalkboard tap handles. Unfortunately, the faucets on my tower are too close together to accommodate them. It's not even close; even if I leave the middle off, the two end handles still smack into each other. Does anyone know of any clever gadgetry that might...
