    Never had a NEIPA

    If you can find it, the Oh-J by Lone Pine is a good example of the style.

    My beer gives me a 'worse' hangover. is there anything wrong with it?

    I've found too, that when people come over they like the novelty of using the taps and tend to overconsume while playing bartender.

    Spincycle Shorty question for Bobby.

    Sorry I missed that, I had never noticed the shorty until I went to their site just now. I have the regular spincycle.

    Spincycle Shorty question for Bobby.

    I'm not Bobby, but I have the spincycle and love it. I used a weldless fitting with no problems.

    Stout grain list - what hops should I use?

    I would agree with @Falstaff here. I love the clean bittering you get from Magnum. I often drop some EKG in near the end of the boil, but not much.

    First Time Keezer Build - What do you wish you knew/What lessons did you learn?

    For me it was these things: Tape your temp probe to a can of something. I'm fancy so I use can of Pabst. The probe bouncing in ambient air will shorten the life of the compressor. Insulate the backside of the collar. I used foam insulation from a hardware store. Don't drink too much once you...

    Grain mill broken...

    I tried to use the lifetime warranty and could never get a response after trying many, many times. I bought a cheaper mill that has outlasted the BC. I don't think I would ever buy another Barley Crusher.

    AHA - American Homebrewers Association

    I love the AHA. I started home brewing in 2004, in a state where it was illegal. A local law student worked with the AHA to draft and get legislation passed to legalize homebrewing. I really appreciate what the AHA was doing for the hobby and was already a member. So since 2009 I'm no longer a...

    How do YOU try to reduce your water usage?

    I run the output from the immersion chiller in to the mash tun so I have hot water for cleaning. Once I chill down to about 80, I switch from using the hose to a pond pump in a cooler filled with ice I made from other waste water. I use much less water and I can get 11 gallons of wort down to...

    What's been your fastest fermentation time?

    When I first started re-pitching I used the whole previous yeast cake. The batch finished in 2 days or so with an OG of 1.075. It also blew the lid off the bucket. Beer turned out great.

    The Victory Lap Thread: Take a Lap!

    I finally got around to brewing this weekend. Moved a while back and most free time has been spent on remodeling the house. Nearly to the point where I can start putting in the bar in the basement. :rock:

    The Venting Thread: Let It Out, Folks!

    Right now the lack of things at the LHBS. I try to support them as much as possible but it's getting hard. I broke down and bought a bunch of grain online and from a place that offers 2 day shipping. My order has been sitting "In warehouse" for nearly 4 days.

    Stalled fermentation

    Not sure what your setup is, but how do you know it's not fermenting? Are you gauging by airlock activity or something visible from a carboy?

    Preferred software for brewers

    I like BeerSmith for recipes, notes and tracking my brewing. I use Bru'n Water, well for the water part.

    Recipe Advice, Please

    Yeah the grain bill looks good. If it were me brewing I would use a little less Munich malt, maybe 10-15%. Looks like you're using the generic Munich malt in BeerSmith. If you can get it, I like Weyermann Munch I, or the Avangard Light, they are a little bit lighter. Post back and let us know...

    Multiple bad batches

    Can you dig in on the priming each bottle? Sounds like you are spooning sugar in to each bottle. Are you boiling the priming sugar first?
