Black bridge brewing systems in Visalia. Julian Sprague is his name. He brews for Kaweah Brewing too.

50lb is legit. One nice about More is that each 10# is sealed airtight.

I just ordered ordered over 100 pounds of grain from morebeer. I am way disappointed in their crush. I could mill it myself, but seeing as I knew I'd be brewing all 4 batches in a short window I felt it was worth the small expense. My efficiencies are always dead on, the last 3 brews have been...

Anyone have a good recipe for Egg Nog? I love it, but get the feeling I'm being short changes by the commercial stuff.

One of those silver markers would look neat.

Thanks all. Her name is Claire. She was born at 7lb3oz and 19.75"

Been a little gone lately. This little thing decided to make her appearance. 23hrs of hard labor. (The nurse said she'd never seen such big contractions so close together) and my wife looks this good. She came last Sunday, but I've been a little preoccupied to get on here.

Quote if the week goes to BL "Because I am off my rocker" Love it.

I tend to brew 12-20 gallons most of the time. I just get hate when a keg kicks and that's done until the next time I brew it, which could be months. I like to set up my pipeline and order 3-4 batches of grain at a time, so it's 3-4 brew sessions before I buy again. On a non-beer related side...

I always wanted to be in BSA when I was a kid. I wish I could keep him interested in sports long enough to finish out a season and want to go back the next year. He's done half way through the season. Put a video game in front of him and he'll play non-stop for a year though. Drives me insane...

The boy has started Scouting. I'm completely lost. His scout leader approached me and said that since he's the only Webelos in the Den that he'd appreciate if I could go through his handbook and help by signing him off on stuff. No problem I thought. That book is a maze of confusion to me. I...

Can't take her out this year though. It's far too cold and she's too young to be in a duck blind until next season. So I'll be training her with live bird and decoys. It'll all come back to me, just may take a bit.

I appreciate that Dan. Puppy should be sleeping through the night and in the yard by the time the baby comes home, so I just look at it as practice. Though after 3 kids the fourth should be a breeze.
