Any of you into playing Urban Dead? Free text based MMORP Zombie Apocalypse game. www.urbandead.com If so it would be nice to get a large group together.

I am thinking about buying Tonic in quantity and keeping it on tap. I am planning on keeping it around 35 psi just like a soda keg. Should be interesting to hear from anyone else that has done this.

Have fun. Been through 30 years of em. Keep your head down and enjoy a few beers in case the keggerator goes down ;)

Several other brewers I know have sworn that place off. We all use hbhq. Kelly, Andy, Chris and Matt know their stuff. Also if you are a member of NTHBA you get a 10% discount if you bring your membership card.

Got to homebrewhq in Richardson....MUCH better service and ingredients. I know it is a bit of a drive though. www.homebrewhq.com They are on Coit just south of Arapaho

Pipe Dope is your friend.

Torrents....or get a TV Tuner card ;)

This comes up all the time. Do not place any kind of evaporator coil in your wort. Wort is acidic and I would safely guess that over 75% of coils have chemicals in the solder that Will leech into your wort. Use it as a prechiller yes, in your beer - never.
