Hi curt, I’d love to make use of all the kegging equipment if it hasn’t been claimed yet. Im local and could pick up any time

There’s that Tesla standard of quality we’ve come to expect!

happy cyber monday 😎

I’d love to try one of these, it would be helpful in the learning curve of maintaining my keg system

I’m (self-interestedly) starting a Black Friday and cyber Monday deals thread. It’s been kind of slow in this forum lately, and I know I can’t be the only one to love a good deal.

Quick update, I tapped it for Halloween! I had been underwhelmed when I kegged it but it really turned out beautifully after a few weeks of resting. I’m also throwing a canoe Chuck photo in as well! I believe these are brews #6 and #5 for me, respectively, and I couldn’t be happier with them...

Following… maybe Santa will come early this year 😊

I’m inclined to agree. Out of curiosity, where are you usually seeing them for sale? I spend time in atlanta and may try to scoop one while there

This looks like another attempt at balance sheet tomfoolery to buoy the stock price in light of continuing cybertruck hurdles. I’ve never heard of Buzzrock, and they certainly don’t stand out on Untappd at a 3.66/5. What is it people say about Harley Davidson? A tshirt company that...

On Saturday, I kegged Canoe Chuck (3# pils dme, 2# rice syrup solids, saaz for 5gal) for a month long lager in the kegerator. I also brewed a schwarzbier (4# dark dme, 1# blackprinz, perle, tettnang, and centennial for 5gal) to dump on the same yeast cake that is happily fermenting away now. I...

I’ll take it, sending email now

Thanks for pointing that out, I wasn’t aware of this. I imagine it’s luck of the draw like any electronic component… when you say they “aren’t serviceable” are we talking “they aren’t user serviceable but I could harass them consistently enough to take a look at it and/or take it to a electrical...

I’m here for this input! I’ve seen too many margartiaville machines at garage sales LOL. I’ve reached a nice stasis with my setup where I see myself continuing to brew for the foreseeable future. “Gimmick” comes to mind for the margaritaville machine, and I want to make sure there’s no pitfalls...

Thanks for the response. The “set and forget” (for lack of a better term) nature of the anvil is a real selling point for me. I’ve seen that you can BIAB in the foundry so it’s definitely a method I plan to explore. I think part of my hesitation is lacking the technical confidence to really...

Hello all, I’m new around here and new to homebrewing generally. I started ~5 months ago on extract kits and have done a lot to improve cold side processes by virtue of incremental upgrades with used gear. I’m looking to move into more sophisticated hot side as I’m currently still using a...

LOL sorry for rezzing a year old thread 🤦‍♂️ I’ve been half-assing my first sour, which included absentmindedly utilizing the search function after an imbibing a few of my prior creations. I’m definitely curious now, as my (inexperienced) mind immediately went to yeast rafts or kombucha/vinegar...

Update: after slight airlock activity (likely due to cherry powder) and steady high 60s ambient temp, I took another SG of 1.020. I decided to move it near the dehumidifier (measuring ~75F localized) and wrap it in a blanket to try and increase the temp to see if fermentation picks back up. The...

I would guess it’s a pellicle from one of the successfully cultured strains, which is a good sign

I considered both strains and will likely branch out to try them at some point. I don’t have dedicated souring equipment and figured L. plantarnum was a very easy strain to start with since it’s so hop intolerant. I have no hang ups on traditionality, so really open to any option!

Welcome! I was trying out the “souring - modern methods” technique of co-pitching yeast as normal alongside the lacto. I read lacto likes it a little warmer, and I had Nottingham on hand so I rolled with it. This is only my fourth beer so I didn’t really consider fusels but in hindsight you’re...
