    MS Walks rule, but MS Still sucks

    As many of you may know, a decade ago my sister was diagnosed with MS. Over the past year, there have been great achievements in the medical community to help those who suffer from MS, and there are more to come. Please consider donating to Walk MS on my behalf as I attempt to beat my fundraise...

    Even in COVID, MS Sucks

    I am going to keep doing this ever year until its done... This year though, I have a whole hell of a lot more at stake, so I am upping my game and committing to putting my body through hell... Unlike prior years, this year, I am not going to run distances based on monies raised. I am...

    Wait, How does MS still suck?!!?

    I normally wouldn't do this sort of thing on a forum, but I did it last year (and the year before... so maybe I would).

    Pellicle or mold

    There is a bit of a clumpy white forming on top of my zante currants. I am supposing its pellicle as I pitched dregs a week ago, but wanted to see if anyone thought this was mold.

    Honey in the boil

    I brewed a saison this morning and added 11oz of honey to the kettle 10 minutes prior to flameout. I hit my preboil gravity, but my postboil gravity is only reading the same as if I had brewed with just grains. My question is if the honey is undissolved and if so, will it stay behind in the...

    1318 Over-attenuation

    I have recently used WY1318 in two seperate batches, an old ale and a stout. Both were pitched into cellar temperature wort straight from smack packs. Both are showing an apparent attenuation of 80/81%. Samples were measured with a digital refractometer, and adjusted using both BeerSmith and...

    Keg virgin

    OK, so I have obtained my kegs (ball lock), regulator, disconnects etc. and my pressure holding vessels are currently each undergoing their PBW soak. After that I intend to santize and then push out the sanitizer with CO2 prior to storage. Long lead in, but the guts of my post really are...

    Beer Smith question

    Don't transfer before coffee

    So this morning, my starter done, I transfer the slurry into two mason jars (one for today, one for the next time) after overbuilding. While I thought about sanitizing the jars, I completely forgot to do so. Question, if you have a spare dry pack available, but this batch was specifically to...
