Rice & corn! I thought that was for your cereal bowl?

Toss it in bin #13 & buy a new one.

The Pub / Re: Bama vs the Longhorns-What are y'all drinking?
« on: January 08, 2010, 01:14:15 pm »
I drank a couple of leftover bottles of Olde Towne Hefeweizen from my last trip to Huntsville. It must have helped because Ingram & Bama 'rolled over the Longhorns.

Great report! I love me some Schneider Hopfenweisse. The Weisses Brauhaus will be a definite stop next time I find myself in Munich.

Ingredients / Re: Best Hallertau Substitute

If we're talking US cultivars then I'd recommend Crytsal or Ultra, but Mt. Hood does have a huge brewery following for this purpose. I'm also a fan of Liberty, but it can sometimes be too spicy for late additions.

Yeast and Fermentation / Re: 2247
« on: January 08, 2010, 12:34:04 pm »
The WY2247-European Lager would be a fine fit for a hoppy lager. I use it quite often to make my Dortmunder-style lager. Vigorous fermentor with great attenuation. Good luck!

Extract/Partial Mash Brewing / Re: More Yeast, Temp boost?
« on: January 08, 2010, 12:29:05 pm »
I'd keep it on the warmer side of the recommended yeast range until you get a good krausen then it's OK to turn down the thermostat. The "rule of thumb" is no more than 3° a day. Maybe play it some metal music?

All Grain Brewing / Re: No Pants Brewing

How about flying by the seat of your pants brewing? Frightenly, I know some pilots who really do that.

It happens to the best of us, but lesson learned. Sorry to hear about your back. Back pain is truly a pain, as my chiropractor can attest! At least he drinks better beer since meeting me.

Yeast and Fermentation / Re: Servomyces capsules
« on: January 07, 2010, 03:52:19 pm »
I typically use a blend of RO, filtered and/or spring water for water profiling and a little Epsom salt really helps + the beasties do love it. Our beer camp adventure really reinforced the importance of trace minerals & quality wasser.

Kegging and Bottling / Re: Keg, bottle or both?
« on: January 07, 2010, 03:28:18 pm »
The poll is closed, but I'd hazard to guess that 80% of my stuff is kegged. A reasonable estimate?
