    New Mexico Anyone near Tijeras, NM?

    I’m looking for someone who might be near Tijeras who would go pick up a phone my friend left at a gas station. I’d be happy to shoot you a few bucks for the hassle and postage. Pm me for the address. Cheers

    Mesquite bean beer

    I harvested almost 5 gallons of mesquite bean pods. I’ll try making syrup out of it in the next day or two, then figure out what in the world I’m doing!

    New (to me) refrigerator

    Here’s my “new” refrigerator. Just got it home. It may or may not run. Time for a quick clean and see if it’ll work. Soon to be a diy project. Not that I need another project. The free part was more than enough for me to grab it up! Hopefully in the next few months I’ll get to it. Cheers

    Water treatment for a knucklehead…

    I’ll soon be getting a RO system of some sort as my water is horrendous. What are some good places to start reading up on things I should (minimally) know before I start. I won’t be brewing for at least a couple of months. I’m open for schooling as long as its simple like me. TIA Tom

    Tower size ?

    I planning for the future... you knew, when I grow up :no:. Moving right along, if I do a u shape (upside down) tower, what diameter would I need for 4 taps? For keeping the lines cold, I’ll assume glycol will be better as little to no space for air flow. TIA :ghostly: Tom

    Cheese kits? Equipment?

    I’m about ready to irritate my wife... and start making cheese. I have been brewing for several years and have beer stuff. What do I need for cheese? Are kits a good way to start? Sorry for the noob questions. Most posts were old and some of the links weren’t active. I also have a mini fridge...

    Confession time, I’m not a lager fan... however Warsteiner is pretty good.

    Infected?

    Top pic looks like it’s infected. Bottom pic, lid wasn’t sealed good and fruit flies got in... What to do? This was a batch that didn’t ferment. I was too cheap to dump it several months later, this is where it’s at.
