Impromptu HERF to celebrate life with my favorite crazy bomber. - Smoke 'em when you can! Cheers! - Blue Dragon

  High demand; product shortage ... I figure prices will be going up .. at least in the short term. Then the mystique will go away and things will normalize in a year or so, hopefully sooner. It will be interesting to see which B&M shops court getting an SA Habanos dealership. It may give some...

    Looks like my link didn't pan out like it was supposed to, and Perlick's online website is SHIT!... This is the faucet I was referring to: http://www.homebrewstuff.com/perlick-perl-545pc-flow-control-faucet.html   So that is to my buddy's home brew supply shop. He lives just a couple miles...

Another thing I forgot to mention .. find out who refills CO2 tanks in your area. Call them up and see if they have a reusable tank program. Usually they will have painted steel 5# CO2 tanks (most common and easy to swap out) or aluminum ones. Get 2 5# tanks so you have a backup, and then just...

  Hey emohsun,  Here's my $.02. 1a) You might want to find a different freezer to use. The specs show 33.25" height, and I'll bet that is exterior height. What is critical for you is Internal Dimensions (ID). You have to figure a standard 1/6bbl or corny is going to be ~24"-25" for just the...

I think Anthony meant to say something else....     :laugh: What's funny is that he is smoking a fake (or sad rather).... but I guess that fits. 

Beer Review: On the Wings of Armageddon - Imperial IPA Brewed and canned in Washington, DC by Brau Brewing, LLC. 9.2% ABV.  www.dcbrau.com     Appearance: Deep golden color. Beautiful! Can't see through it; great for an IIPA.    Head: Great head retention upon pouring. Only a slight layer after...

Really? Maybe it's because I'm in the NW, but IPAs are my least favorite to drink with cigars. IPAs are typically very hoppy and often bitter, and I don't find those flavors appealing to go with my cigar. I do like maltier beers; porters, ambers, some IIPAs, some Stouts .. especially bourbon...

I'm not interested in beating a dead horse .. hopefully it is dead .. but flavor is subjective, appearance is subjective, mouthfeel, draw, wrapper preferences, Gary's prick ... all subjective. Two things that are objective are origin and price. MSRP is posted by the manufacturer, so that doesn't...

    So I started going back through some of the posts in the Lawyers, Guns, and Money pass, and it seems pretty screwy what has been going on. But I won't get into that here .. I will address it over in that thread.   I still stand behind that statement. The pass host has the final say about...

  At first I thought you were truly going senile and posted in the wrong thread! ... Man, talk about bringing back memories. That pass did go really well, and we had a lot of fun. And I made some good friends - the best part.    I read through that whole pass. I wanted to find the issue jfields...

  I think he just recommended to precook the potatoes because we were doing multiple batches of crawfish. We cooked about 150 lbs at 40 lbs at a time. So we didn't want to wait 20 minutes for the potatoes to cook.    That is a really great idea! I have one too that would work well.    I spoke...
