    Got my first infection.

    Posting a pic of my mead.

    I thought there was a post a pic thread but I might have been wrong. But here is my Tupelo honey mead I made about a year ago it has really cleared up in the bottle, a little cloudy after pouring trying to get every good drop. It was good last year but damn! Amazing now

    I completed my 50 state quest.

    I finally visited all 50 states and celebrated with a few pints and good conversation at Smug Brewing in Pawtucket, RI. Love their smoked lager. Also had to go buy another piece of luggage as I brought about 60 pounds worth of different beers in Maine

    Steel Reserve questions

    So yesterday I was behind someone making a bad life choice by buying several Steel Reserve lagers and on the can it said it was made with extra malted barley and slow brewed. WTF is extra malted barley and will brewing a beer slower make it better??

    Lifetime Cooler as a mash tun

    I saw this on sale at Wally World and wonder if anyone uses it. It keeps ice for 7 days so it should do good for keeping the mast temp.

    A water district that cares about home brewing

    I was looking up my local water quality report today to see what was in it before it gets filtered for my fish tank and they have a section dedicated to home brewing and gave a report on the minerals that can influence all grain brewing. http://jwcwater.org/water-quality/home-brewing-info/

    Be careful when transporting your propane tank

    Saw this today.. Scary stuff. I am glad there is a place to fill my tank about a half mile from my home. It is about 25 cents a gallon more but not having to drive around with it is worth it. https://jalopnik.com/surveillance-camera-captures-suv-carrying-propane-tank-1829327702
