My GF bought a march pump that has 3/4" FPT and MPT input and outputs. she wants to use 1/2" triclover fittings. is there an adapter that goes from the 3/4" FPT and MPT down to 1/2" for the fittings? I am no plumber and don't really understand which thread type is compatible with another, i...

anyone on here have any good fitness forums they use? I spent some times on bodybuilding.com but I am not into the bulking thing anymore. I find that forum pretty annoying now and how they look down on general fitness or workouts that arent designed to bulk.

I just wanted to send a thanks out to Adventures in Homebrewing. I always see people bashing vendors for a mess up but dont see many buyers giving vendors props for a job well done. as I build my e-brewery I will try to give good reviews to the companies that do a good job doing what they do...

starting to build my e-brewing setup in the basement. the frame for the 2 tier is done, some poly and plywood and it will be ready to go!

I want to buy a keggle to use for an e boil pot. the closer it is to finished the better as I dont want to have to drill or weld stainless. any suggestions on where to buy?

I dont know if anyone has ever attempted to do this or not, hoping someone has and has some advice. I want to cut the top of a growler right at the bottom of the handle. I have to travel over the week of valentines day and thought it would be cool to have flowers delivered to my GF using a...

a shot of what is supposed to be a hoegaarden clone, i dont think the recipe i found online was that close to being right but it still tastes pretty good.

I did a pale ale yesterday, finished around 2:00 pm. i checked on it last night before bed and the krausen was right up to the top and my blow off was bubbling like crazy. I just went and checked it about an hour ago and the krausen is just about gone, no bubbling, and i pulled the little cap...

wow, haven't posted here in a while, i need to brew more often. I just picked up a pale ale kit but dont really want to make just a pale ale, I'm thinking something fruity that the wife might like. just a hint of fruit though, nothing over powering. any ideas? how much fruit should be used...

is this going to be an issue using a 5 gallon carboy for fermentation if i use a blow off tube? i was give 4 carboys and i thought they where 6 gallon, looks like they are closer to 5. i would still like to use them though.

so i have two batches under my belt and im starting to think a little bit long term. I go to a car show every year with a bunch of friends the first weekend of June. i would like to brew up a batch for the show, problem is just about every one that goes is a coors light/labatte light fan. i...

going to bedford tomorrow for work and will be staying for one night. any place easy to get to worth going? I will have a Ryder truck so i dont want to be messing around in down town traffic to get into Boston unless there is easy mass transit from the Bedford area. i will be staying on...

bottled my first 5 gallon batch today (american wheat), few photos of the setup! the transfer fermenter bottling bucket ready to bottle

it was time to bottle my first 5 gallon batch today so i decided that there is no sense having an empty fermenter so i started my second brew after bottling. bottling went great, it was way easier than i had expected, pics to come soon! i cooked up a red ale after. i thought all went well...

recommend one for me. there are so many to choose from i have no idea where to start. this will be my second beer so im looking for something easy, but it can be more complicated than just boil some extract. im not a huge hops fan though, so until they get more enjoyable ipa's and the like...

so i tried my first beer out of my MrBeer kit. in the fermenter for 12 days, bottled for 8. i followed the directions that came with the kit to a T. so what gives? it looked like beer, a little flat which i somewhat expected, but its just not good. my wife thinks it has a yeast smell to it...

anyone have this? bought some last night hoping for something good as i thought i liked wheat beers with fruit, SA cherry wheat is one of my favorites. i also like UFO hef, hoegarden and a few others. now im new to beer, outside of the normal bud/labatte stuff but this stuff is not good. it...
