So, went about drilling my new fridge for co2 lines today. Carefully, cut the plastic, removed the insulation to see that there was no coolant lines in the side of the unit. Yay! There isn't. Proceeded to drill through and hit a coolant line! Fuck my life! :mad:

So good ol mother nature put a good hold on my brewing for a while, lol. I salvaged most of the setup, in tact . Everyone is safe, but the house is toast

Anyone else get snowed in? Everyone in my family is stuck in the driveway, except me. :D

Does anyone else have a particular discipline they participate in? I started krav maga about 2 1/2 months ago. Let me tell you, it's not easy. Especially at 51. Lol. Gives you a good sense of accomplishment and the school i go to is nothing but positivity. They expect you to work, but...

Hope everyone is having a great day so far. Watching the macy parade, drinking an eggnog latte and eating cinnamon rolls. Couldn't be better

So can someone explain how 102% attenuation is possible...

I would like this feature to go away! :) In lieu of that, can it not be on top of the text box and the "go to top" button?

Doing an experiment to see if this matters at all. 1098 2 stage starter for a high gravity beer. Bursting pure o2 into the starter. 1 second every 15 minutes. rate of 0.12 l/min. Have read that there is some evidence that it helps build higher yeast counts. we shall see, since i don't have...

thought I would open a thread for people to post thier favorite local or online brew stores. hopefully this doesnt already exist. search is not great on this site, lol just found this one. they seems to have ALOT of brewing ingredients. many kinds I cant get here locally...

very hottly contested subject. I have always maintained that ph managment is important and will make a better beer. Brulosophy did an interview with John Palmer (How to brew) on the subject of PH. definately worth a view. if you are looking to fine tune a recipe, this coule help

Bunch of bullshit. Plaato decided they are no longer gonna be in the homebrew business. So if you have the products, be prepared for them to quit working in a year or so. One thing that sucks about IOT, you don't own the internet interface and when they discontinue a product, it just...

This is a hottly contested subject and clearly brewlosophy is not the end-all be-all authority. But, this is something i have noticed as well. I have always crashed over a 2-3 day period. Mostly because crashing too fast causes ice and the crash will stall out around 40F. But crashing...

My tiltpi died and while I waited for the new one to arrive I did a search to see if they made a tilt for windows app. the Tilt people dont, but I did find this on thier discussion board. it works really well. could use a little refinement. like the graphs dont work until you have 3 changes...

Not sure that is the official term. I brew using BIAB and a HERMs recirc. Even with rice hulls it requires stirring to keep the wort draining properly. We shall see if this helps. Motor is gear reduced to 15 rpm.

As in the Guinness gas, beer-gas, nitrogen/co2 type stuff. Got a setup for my birthday and I am carbing my first batch. Does anyone else have experience with this? got a "5lb" tank of the gas, which was 2500psi at the start. After one day, I am down to 1500psi. This normal? Does it...

but I dont care............my wife got me a weather station for christmas. I set it up today. can see it from the inter-webs! https://ambientweather.net/dashboard/60253ec0da77ebca0833567cfae86dc0

Just a pet peve, compounded by the fact that clicking on pictures gives you a blank black screen. Please "insert" pictures when you post. fuzzy attachments that you can't see are frustrating. Carry on

Pretty sure my wife would kick my ass. :D:oops:o_O https://brulosophy.com/2023/08/03/the-brulosophy-show-open-fermenting-a-weissbier-in-the-bathtub/

I remember watching her on sat night live tearing up picture of the pope. She had her demons, but stood by her beliefs, even when it cost her career. https://www.irishtimes.com/culture/music/2023/07/26/sinead-oconnor-acclaimed-dublin-singer-dies-aged-56/

100th running of the 23 hours of LeMans. anyone else watching this year? I havent missed it for the last 25 years at least.
