« on: March 22, 2016, 03:15:47 AM »And I have actually brewed that recipe, thanks dennyIf you could have the recipe for one commercial beer which beer would it be and why?
I'd choose the original Schlitz beer before the recipe was "lost" during the disastrous recipe and process changes made in the early 70's.
I actually have that recipe.

Going Pro / Re: Where's Tom?
« on: January 27, 2015, 11:37:29 PM »Yea, you should see mine. We've only been open about 1. Month and I swear every day the hair gets whiter and whiter.Looks a little thinner, too. Brewing is good exercise.
I thought that also.
Showed the picture to Susan and pointed out the grey and thinner body, she said those 2 probably go hand in hand when you open a brewery.

If you guys have been watching us on facebook you know that we are brewing, if not then here's an update. We finally got our fed license Tuesday, only took about 150 days 
, passivated cleaned and sanitized fermenters, and yesterday made our first batch of beer. Then we will be brewing all next week to get all fermenters filled,and plan on opening dec 27.
We didn't realize until we got done brewing that we made our first batch on the same day that prohibition was repealed just 81 years earlier.

Plastic is phenolic, usually yeast infection or some yeast at high temps will give this. What beer was it?

Ingredients / Re: Water report for Culligan RO system
« on: October 03, 2014, 02:48:14 PM »Its a Culligan under the kitchen sink system. I have to start drawing water out of it the day before brew day because I only have a 3 gallon pressure tank. I usually end up setting my phone to beep every 40 minutes so I can go draw another gallon off. That gives it recharge time so that the pressure is good when I do.
[/quote
We are going to use RO for our commercial brewery, 10. Bbl. and will have to collect about 500. Gallon. That's going to take awhile.

I'm in the middle of the boil on a winter warmer, Maris otter cinnamon and vanilla bean. Not too high gravity so it should be ready this winter, not next.
