+1 on running the bottles in the dishwasher. The hot rinse usually gets the labels off, and a machine dose the work for you, wonderful! BTW my personal favs are the Deschutes Brewery bottles, slim, and a bit of raised hop design on the rim. Of course the lables are easy to get off too!:rockin:

Maybe try a bit of Oban while your there as well.

Just got a Dawson's Multi Grain kit from NB into my fermentor. It may turn out to be the prettest beer we've ever made. ...oh it finished with an OG of 1040.

Been better off with SAM http://finance.yahoo.com/q/bc?s=SAM&t=1y&l=on&z=l&q=l&c=bud I voted "NO", but GI's not availible in NV to my knowledge anyway.

Us too, we homebrew, and rarely play around with the recipies. However, we love trying to invent gadgets from the hardware store to help out our process.

Talent acquisition specialist and product tester at our local brothels. :p ...or a systems integrator/I&E tech.;)

Be sure to make it a good one! It's a good idea IMHO, to give adjunct beers anyway. Life's too short to drink crappy beers.

We stop in almost every time we're in Reno. Great food, greater beer! I'm glad to hear the owner is a supporter as well.

Never saw them live, but I've got several of their songs in the iPod on rotation.

My wife just found your short shows on You-Tube. This past show was the first show I watched, and it was very educational! Thanks. BTW were you at Great Basin Brewery?

+1 on the brew log. We started home brewing about ten years ago, in college to be cheap. We recently re-started home brewing, this time with the intent of making fine beers. One of the things we started doing was keeping a detailed log during brew day. Since we now have a couple beers in the...

Deschutes must use the absolute cheapest glue on their labels. That's fine though, I like their beer and the easy to remove lables are a plus. I also like SN, and Samual Smith's. I like the bigger bottles from Sam Smith, less cleaning!

Wow, thanks for sharing Kevin! Some of these set-ups look great. ...now I need to learn how to brew:mug:

I don't have an all grain set-up yet, but when I do build mine I'd like to use a PLC to control it. I am thinking of using a Modicon Momentum, or possibly an AB Micrologic. I believe using PLC's would be far better then using single loop controllers. JMHO

Budweiser. I know its pretty much crap beer, but sometimes when we have a get together, not all my friends enjoy good beer, so I grab a 12'er of Bud. Heck sometimes I can even stomach it myself.

Thanks for the welcome guys! rambler, its good to see someone else close by, :mug:

Brewed our first attempt at a porter last night. We ended up with an OG of 1.060. Its in the primary right now bubbling away!

Hi board, Just writing to introduce myself, we're simple extract brewers ATM, probably have brewed less then 15 batches. But we certainly enjoy the hobby, and are looking to advance our homebrewing. My wife found this site and I've been pretty busy since reading through all the threads...

The Rocky Patel sounds good, for a really good mild smoke I suggest to my friends a Rocky Patel Connecticut, Olivas are good too. I haven't as yet tried an Acid, I guess the notion of an infused cigar brings to mind a cheapy flavored cigar. Reading the comments though from jbrookeiv, I might...

Thanks for the welcome CodeRage! I work in the gold mineing industry though, not coal. I automate the extraction of gold from it's host rock through the Merrill Crowe process. This entails grinding, leaching with cyanide, plenty of de-arration, lead introduction, DE, as well as filter...
