Almost all Americans believe in magical sky fairies.

Seeing as you are in the possession of an illegal shotgun with the intend to shoot someone, don't you feel you have at least some degree of responsibility for the chain of events?

Since when do people talk more about that? They usually talk about what you're saying. Almost no one talks about the rights of people who break the law. Read this thread, 90% of all posts is about how you should be allowed to mangle everyone who tries to steal stuff from you. Because if your...

Always use hose clamps to secure hoses connected to running water :sad1: The amount of times I've had a hose fly off the tap and spray my entire kitchen with water is... well too many.

Most situations in which a homeowner gets convicted for violence against a burglar is this story: 1. Homeowner disables burglar. 2. Homeowner now proceeds to continue the violence while the burglar is already incapacitated. Then the media "forgets" to add that the burglar was already...

Just use star san. With a spray bottle you can shoot it inside the tap.

You hang the bag in the mash kettle. Fold it over the edges. Also its a good idea to place some sort of flase bottom (anything really) in the kettle to prevent the bag from touching the bodem. This prevents burning of the bag. Then you add malt to the bag, mash as usual. You then lift the bag...

1. 1/4 of the fermenter if you are using an air lock. Less if you are using a blow off tube. More for some yeasts, specifically some Belgian yeasts. Some of those bad boys can really produce a lot of krausen! Strains meant for IPA (US-05, the chico strain) generally don't have this problem and I...

I`m so glad I live here when it comes to bottles :D. My basement is completely stashed with beer bottle crates. Normal cap bottles, swing top bottles, small and large. Average price was 3,50 quid per crate filled with empty bottles.

Also don't be fooled by the ambiant temperature. It's irrelevant how cold the room is where the FV is in. During primary fermentation your young beer heats up considerably. And during this fermentation the temperature is the most important. Still no reason not to do it :).

What kind of yeasts do you have?

Hi Bashley, There is probably nothing wrong and it all makes sense! A normal siphon water lock (I use a cylindrical type myself actually): The water often moves to only one side (the one closest to the exit) after a few days. Pressure builds up and pushes it towards that end. Thats perfectly...

Yeah its crazy. Also online you only find ridiculous info on it: https://www.homebrewersassociation.org/how-to-brew/tips-brewing-new-england-ipa/ Basically all sort of tips which are used in normal IPA's. Also cloudy IPA's aren't even new or something. Why for some reason suddenly New England...

Its not even really clear what a NEIPA is. Its not yet an official recognized beer style in any competition.

I am just now brewing a beer with exactly those hops. This time I wanted to brew with a lot of hop. With really a lot. Amount: 25L SG: 1,053 Calculated IBU: 52 (Rager) Grain Bill: 5.7kg Pale Malt 0.3kg Cara 120 Mash for 60 minutes at 67 celsius. Hop gifts: 40 min boil without hop 20 g...

I really couldn't imagine any government instance caring that you did a super small scale production of >20% beer. In the Netherlands they don't even care about distilling in general.

And thus a truly great man dies.

If you have the space I'd go for bigger as wel. Gives you more flexibility. If you want to do two brews in it, you can. If you decide to go for larger brews like 60L, you can!

Ah the old sulfide argument :). Btw, the only way that it is actually proven to be sort of sterilizing is with addition of citric acid. Do watch out for the irritating fumes though. That's one of the reasons why I hate the stuff.
