    Glass Vs Plastic carboy

    Howdy, Glass is the way to go and spend the few bucks to get a carboy handle but don't pick it up by just the handle. The necks can snap under the load. I use a filing crate to hold and carry carboys. A 5g might fit in a milk crate. (That's a Blood Orange Wheat in the carboy) Cheers, Bob

    1st batch is on - Deutsche AltBier

    Coyote, If it took off well and then settled it's probably just fine. You could have roused it a bit too. Was it Nottingham? If it was, I've had it do the same thing but a hydo test will be the final answer. It's a fast worker. Funny how you look around at your beer reserves and know you...

    best beer for BBQ

    This year's Hopslam is much better than last. It's got a much brighter hop flavor and nose. It's nice to be done with the hop shortage! Try to find some Southern Tier Unearthly or Oaked Unearthly. Good stuff. Prost!

    Beer Advocate traders

    Hola, I'm on BA but I haven't done any trading. I use it mostly to research beer. Another member of our brew club trades constantly! He's been very happy with the process and he's good about sharing. LOL! Prost, Bob

    first time brewing

    Well that's a win-win! I love the look that some people give you when you tell them you brew your own beer. That weird "Lassie, where's Timmy?" head twist kind of thing. Cheers, Bob

    1st batch is on - Deutsche AltBier

    Howdy, Definately post a pic. I brew in my garage. My wife likes the malty smell of the wort but as soon as the hops are added she wrinkles her nose up and she's done! Me, I think it smells wonderful. What was your FG? Cheers, Bob

    first time brewing

    Howdy, Welcome to the hobby that is actually an obsession. I've been brewing for nearly 5 years and recently did a stint as Head Brewer at a local brewery. I started out getting a Mr. Beer for Xmas but I never used it. I jumped right in to all-grain and skipped bottling for kegs. My latest...

    ABT shortcut with Qview

    Howdy, This has been the summer of the Jalapeno! My wife and I are addicted to these things and I blame all of you here! I don't slow smoke every night and seeing how we eat these 2-4 nights a week, I needed a shortcut. I'm using a cast iron tortilla pan on the grill to cook the abt's. My wife...

    ABT newbie with Q-view

    Howdy, I've always loved Jalapeno poppers but damn, I can't stop making these things! My wife and I crave them all the time! I don't have a fancy roasting rack but the ol' rib racks do just fine! Thanks SMF! Cheers, Bob

    Who has a kegerator?

    Mine started out as a beer fridge with a single tap on the side and commercial beer inside. Now that I brew, the tap hole serves as the IN for the CO2 and I can fit four cornies with picnic faucets. Bottles get scattered about. A chest freezer will replace this when it goes.

    Brewing an Ale today ...

    Brewer and BBQ'r here too. Nice looking recipe. Here's some beer pics. A Rye IPA And a Hefeweizen. This one was called "The Monkey's Naner". I fermented it warm and got HUGE banana smell and taste. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one with the both hobbies! Cheers Bob
