    How Many Mes Owners Here?

    just got the smoker box retro. simple as a phone call, model and serial number and 7 days later, a retro kit. did some babybacks w/o the retro and got some decent smoke, so can't wait to see the diff. i used my smoker in the teens and everything worked fine.

    I want to start brewing but i got a few questions??

    well, that's the impression i got from some of the other forums. i don't think the missus would appreciate me turning the garage into a microbrewery. as a side note, a friend of mine started brewing ag right off the bat. you are right, there is a diff between extract and ag, however, both done...

    I want to start brewing but i got a few questions??

    well, if i went out and bought the best of everything, either brewing equipment, smokers, etc., and didn't take the time to find out the correct way of doing things, it would probably not go so well. i used the mr beer fermenters as a fermentation vehicle. i bought a number of extract kits...

    I want to start brewing but i got a few questions??

    as stated in one of the posts, try mr beer. easiest and cheapest intro into homebrewing. i ended up with 2 mr beer fermenters, so i ended up buying 5 gallon kits and splitting into the 2 fermenters. the brew that i made was that good that i absolutely, positively will never drink another mega...

    Drink of choice?

    used to be a homebrew. haven't brewed for awhile, so it's been a variety of our local craft brews; yards, victory, troegs, and not so local; dogfish head and flying dog.

    smoked mac'n'cheese

    now THAT'S what i'm talkin' 'bout. awesome recipe. sure it's a little pricier than velveeta n' elbows, but there are some things you can't cheat with smoke. if you don't mind, me thinks a little plagarism is in order. thanks a bunch there scarbelly.

    noob from pa

    well, my last addiction was homebrewing, started with a mr beer kit last thanksgiving. brewed about 25 batches, taking a little break from brewing, figured the wife wouldn't mind a new addiction. i'll be breaking it in this weekend, and figure a couple racks of baby backs would be the simplest...
