    Cleaning a New SS False Bottom

    Hey all, a quick question for anyone with info to share. I recently purchased a brand spanking new stainless steel false bottom for my 10gal cooler mash tun and I am having trouble getting all of the machining oil and grease off of it? Does anyone have an effective and relatively easy way to...

    Getting that dude to do anything that I say is about as likely as keeping jell-o nailed to a wall.

    My wife passed away

    You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. I am so very sorry for the loss you are experiencing. Makes me want to go home and hug my wife and kids right now. Peace to you and yours, brother brewer.

    Will My Bottles Explode or Be overcarbonated?

    More information is needed to assess your risk of over-carb and bottle bombs. How much corn sugar came with the kit? Are you sure that you bottled 4 gallons? My guess is that you should be okay regarding bottle bombs but that you will be around 3 volumes of carbonation assuming 5oz of priming...

    When do I add Orange and clove to Hefe?

    I can't speak to the cloves but I recently did an Orange Wheat and I used the zest from about 12 fresh oranges in the boil. The boil was 60 minutes and I added for the last 5 minutes.

    Words and phrases I hate

    Ok - I will submit. Rocket science is hard enough to be considered. It's rare that I get to be a math/science geek in my everyday life, but I get it and humbly defer. 2% at Wal-Mart? I'd say that was an exceptional Wal-Mart. At my local one, I wouldn't go higher than 1% including myself.

    I'm on board - Rocket Surgery it is! :-P

    Words and phrases I hate

    I have a BS in Applied Mathematics with a Physics concentration and a Masters Degree in Financial Analysis and I still think that rocket science is relatively easy compared to many other areas of science. A little calculus, a little relativity and a couple of first order differential equations...

    Words and phrases I hate

    I hate it when troglodytic idiots qualify a statement with "It's not like its rocket science" If any of these morons knew that rocket science and the five or six simple equations that make up rocket science was less complicated than your average four slice toaster, it would probably make their...

    Your favorite band or album that nobody ever heard of

    Not sure if nobody knows about them, but Jets To Brazil - Orange Rhyming Dictionary is an album that clicked with me from first listen. I also found Lucero a few years ago - their record Nobody's Darlings is delicious. There are many, many more for me, but these two really stand out.
