    First Time Smoking Salmon

    I guess it is a wet brine. Maybe I'm not doing it right? I used 1 qt of water, 1/2 cup salt to 2 cups of brown sugar.

    First Time Smoking Salmon

    I just got 10 gallons of my Irish Red Ale in the fermenter. Tomorrow I'll be smoking salmon for the first time. Throwing on a couple lbs of cod for fish tacos. I just got 4 lbs of salmon in a 1:4 salt brown sugar brine. I'll pull it out in the morning and put on rack for pellicle to form. I...

    Any particular reason you DON'T homebrew?

    I hope you enjoy it. SlySmoke brought up a good point about talking to the people at your local home brew store. I know at least one store here in Nashville that does home brew classes for beginners. I'll also add, check out your local home brew club. The club I'm in does Big Brew Days a couple...

    Any particular reason you DON'T homebrew?

    I’ve never used a Mr Beer kit but I've heard of them. When I first started I used extract kits that consisted of crushed grain, dry malt extract, liquid malt extract, hops, and yeast. With those you did your boil or brew. You can make a pretty decent beer with extract but nothing like all grain...

    Favorite Beer

    I've been brewing beer for over 20 years. I'm a bit of a seasonal beer drinker. I like porters and stouts in the winter, blonde and pale ales in the summer. My overall favorites are IPAs. I drink them year round and more than any other style.

    Crimped Thermometer wires - any solutions?

    That looks like what I'm considering Buck1949  but I'm thinking I might drill the hole on the side since the side is flat on mine.

    Crimped Thermometer wires - any solutions?

    Yeah, I really didn't want to drill a hole in my new smoker but I guess that's what I'm going to do.  I've seen some drill the hole in the side of the box just above the grate and some that drilled the hole in the bottom of the chimney. Any advantage or disadvantage to either?

    Crimped Thermometer wires - any solutions?
