My consumption game plan didn't include the roofies. I'll be sure to watch what I eat around you and @LaMichael_Corleone future tense. It was a merciful act anyways.backthepack said:

Sorry, was looking for pics of my stuff that doesn't doxx myself too much. Never put my pics online anywhere so need to look into that. I'll get to it eventually.
I'm one of those Beer Judge douchebags, helped with current style guidelines, so feel free to make fun of me for that. But, understanding that stuff did improve my brewing. In the range of 270 beer batches over 11 or 12 years, all grain. KS weather sucks so half the year I brew inside on kitchen stovetop, Brew-in-a-bag. Rest of time with actual mash tun in open garage waiting for someone to come by and ask if I'm making meth or certain my immersion chiller is a still. Every damn time. Fucking Midwest, man.
Counting mead, cider, wine, I'm over 1000 batches. Around the time Browning was trying to find a Bama player to throw it to, I had 700 gallons in my basement. Currently quite a bit less and am focusing more on stuff that ages like mead and red wine, out of necessity. 27 fermenters at last count. It's a bit of a problem admittedly, but I'm slowly downsizing.
If anyone wants a recommendation on yeast or tips for a style or troubleshooting, feel free to hit me up. @UW_Doog_Bot thanks for starting a thread - send me a massage if you want a sample shipped your way; someone's gotta drink this swill. Same goes for @GrundleStiltzkin and I suppose @Swaye since his life is over.
Currently adjusting a low-alcohol carbonated passion fruit mead to serve at a fest next month. Last year some drunk idiot made fun of my "fruity girlie beer" until I pointed out most of the women in attendance were in my line. Dumbass.

What exactly did you do to get your RB tickets and who did you do it to?

I go to my local shop but I like northernbrewer.comUW_Doog_Bot said:
Haven't ordered online anytime recently as I support my local shop but I have frends that live in boonytownUSA who do on the regular for their supplies. I'll make some inquiries.GrundleStiltzkin said:
Which do you suggest?UW_Doog_Bot said:
I do mostly partial extract at this point. It's just a lot less work imo for a garage set up and gets you 81% of the results. Online ordering is your fren if your local shop is closed. Online stuff has improved tremmensely in the last five or so years with competition.GrundleStiltzkin said:I brewed a lot (partial extract only tho) back when. Life got too busy with kids and haven't made a batch in at least five years. My only local supply shop closed a while ago, not even sure where I'd get the makings.

@dirtydrugsdawg wants to know. -
I'm currently working through a Rye IPA I brewed. I think it would have been really good if I had done my due diligence and looked at my water before brewing but this was my first batch since I moved to this water district. My local water's chlorine levels are too high... next time I'll use campden tablets or just get ro water.
