    Homebrewing: Stepping it up...

    Another huge recomendation for beersmith. Possibly the best $20 I ever spent on anything brewing related. It does so much beyond even just the calculations. I was also going to say that there is nothing wrong with smaller sized batches. Most people frown upon it because it is just as much...

    Homebrewing: Stepping it up...

    For a 5gal batch AG I wouldn't want to use anything less than an 8 gallon pot. I used to haev a 7.5 and doing 5 gallons in that was a bitch even with using fermcap. For the money keggle is the best way to go. If you don't mind spending the money blichman makes a damn fine product but it is...

    Want to get a smoker

    Both the UDS and WSM are pretty much set and forget. The UDS will easily burn at a steady temp without reloading for 16+ hours and I don't think the WSM will do that long but it will still go a long time.

    Want to get a smoker

    That is pretty high. You can do it yourself for around $100. The hardest part is finding the drum but they usually aren't too hard to find if you have any sort of industrial sections near you. They also paid someone to weld it for them which is going to cost a lot more than just doing it...

    Want to get a smoker

    For the money by far your best bet is to build a UDS, ugly/upright drum smoker. I have all the part to do it and plan on doing it this weekend. I will be taking pictures of a the build and make a build thread on another forum and could post it here too if others are interested. You just...

    Heartfelt beads

    Delarob? I know someone on another forum with the same user name that is from around here. I blame him for getting me into cigars in the first place. :D It has to be the same person, that is just weird. I will keep an eye out for the others too.

    Heartfelt beads

    I had read that is what a lot of people do but I have a pretty small desktop humidor and wouldn't that take up a considerable amount of space. The humi is 228ci, 9.5x8.3

    How to handle your neuticles!

    Sorry, I won't part with the grape or peach. I might consider watermelon though.

    How to handle your neuticles!

    hahahahahaha that is great. I am active on a few other forums and it seems like every now and then they all get one of those and they are all just classic Oh, by the way does anyone happen to have a box of between the lines they wouldn't mind giving me? I could trade some swishers or white...

    Heartfelt beads

    I am about to order some heartfelt beads because my gel is doing a terrible job. I just can't decide if I should get the puck that will go into the lid or one of the tubes? I have read some people having problems filling the tubes but are there any issues with the pucks? Any other...

    New Travel Humidor

    Sounds like you got a damn good deal and there is nothing like having the right tool for the job.

    Old dried out cigars

    They have been tossed :( My humi is stocked again though thanks to the newbie trade and my B&M! :D There is no way I am letting it go to crap again now.

    What beer did you drink today?

    Last night I pulled the first pint of my homebrew english bitter. It is absolutely horrible. :angry: It is very under attenuated and not hop character to it at all. The weird thing is that this was a 15 gallon batch that 3 of us split and mine is the only one that is bad.

    Going on a Bahamas Cruise

    I wasn't sure of that which is why I had said so in the first post. I have no problem having the thread deleted if needed, I am not trying to cause any problems. I didn't know if "sources" were anything or just places/people you can get to send you some.

    What beer did you drink today?

    Washington Nationals

    That’s no wager. That is a guarantee. The wager would be who is going to have the worse record.... Washington or Baltimore :(
