    Do You Still Purchase Commercial Beer ?

    I always buy a 4 pack of grolsch when I go to the cabin. Tastes fine in the summer and I'm slowly replacing most of my pry offs.

    Calling all Information Scientists

    I've been looking for a project to work on to hone my extremely rudimentary web design / database skills. This sounds pretty interesting. I'm thinking of an insane venn diagram with styles all over the place.

    Do you enjoy brewing more than drinking?

    I spend a lot of time thinking about brewing but I usually only drink a few pints a week. Some weeks I don't drink any. Maybe I'm just subconsciously getting ready for baby #1 in 2 months!

    Snoring and beer

    CPAP is a little noisy but we blast a fan for white noise, so all I hear is that.

    Snoring and beer

    Do a sleep study, get a cpap, drink and don't snore. Sleep better. Profit.

    Bought it for the bottle... turned out to be a great beer.

    Same price to buy empty brown swingtops or full grolsch. I don't like that the bottles are green, but store them right and it won't matter. I sort or like the skunkiness of grolsch in the middle of summer.

    Man, I love Apfelwein

    I just bottled a batch that was on the yeast in a better bottle for almost 6 months. From what I've read, I have nothing to worry about. I'm just going to consider the better bottle / oxygen issue a bogeyman until I experience otherwise.

    Man, I love Apfelwein

    I just bottled my last batch that was in primary (in a better bottle) for five months. I'll post how it tastes in a few weeks.

    Polar Bear Brew Club

    That's one club I don't want any part of. Boiling wort and minimal clothing sounds sketchy at best hehe.

    I think I misunderstand you. How is that lying and cheating?

    Ordered centennial got centennial type

    I brewed a Waldo Lake kit from NB yesterday. It came with Centennial Type hops instead of Centennial hops. I just shrugged and threw them in the kettle. I don't have a baseline for this recipe, so I'm not too worried. I would be concerned if I specifically bought Centennial and was given a blend...

    Man, I love Apfelwein

    I made one batch of Apfelwein around this time last year, but it's all been gone for months now. Well, besides the ONE bottle I have in my fridge that I *almost* drank today. Anyways, I have another 6 gallons that are going on month 5 in the better bottle. Anyone care to hazard a guess at how...

    thermometer recommendations?

    I'm in the market for one as well. I've heard that Thermoworks makes a good one for $20. RTC something or other.

    Introducing Brewtoad

    Super cool! As a homebrewer just getting into programming, I am envious. Well done.

    Saving a bottle from every batch...

    My first batch of homebrew was on Labor Day, 2011. Since then I have brewed maybe 8 times. I have also made two batches of Apfelwein. :ban: Up until now, I have saved a single 12 oz. bottle from each batch. They are collecting dust in a dark corner of my basement. I got to thinking...

    I'll never understand why....

    Labels come off naturally when I soak used bottles for the first time. It's easy and besides, if I was new to homebrew and skeptical, I wouldn't want to try someone homemade beer out of a fat tire bottle. It just doesn't instill confidence. That being said, it doesn't affect the beer if all...

    My search of kegs

    I got a keg for Halloween last year and the deposit was around $100. Just saying.

    What are you drinking now?

    On vacation and just had a Union Jack and a Double Jack. Both were fantastic!
