    Samuel Adams - Norse Legend

    I was truly looking forward to trying this and finally had the opportunity last night. Maybe I built it up too much in my mind but it was disappointing. I'm not saying it was a bad beer but it definitely did not have the complexity that one would expect given the tradition of a sahti style...

    Kegerator - North Dallas (Frisco) $50

    SOLD I am changing to a different kegerator and need to get rid of this one fairly rapidly, hence the low price. I also have no way of transporting it so it will need to be picked up (another reason for the low price). This is for the refrigerator only. I need to keep the components for the...

    Brew All Grain RIMS System

    Just saw a video on YouTube promoting the brewallgrain.com RIMS system. I was about to pull the trigger on the equipment to build my own and it was going to cost me several hundred for the system. This one is going for $249 which sounds great on the surface but also makes me a little nervous...

    Amber DME for yeast starter?

    I am doing a Moose Drool clone and thought about making the yeast starter using Amber DME instead of the light. I know the OG should be the same but am wondering if this would help or hurt a darker beer. Thoughts?

    Poor Efficiency Problem

    I just finished brewing a batch of beer which I've done about 5 times before, always with about 75%efficiency. To my knowledge, I didn't change anything but my effeciency decreased significantly. Haven't done the math yet but my SG came in at 1.039 and should have been in the 1.053 range...
