But none of the farts that we produce compare to dog farts. They are almost always silent and always very potent.

Maybe because lots of dogs are vegetarians... ;)

I think meat makes you fart more. I notice that after a night of overeating buffalo wings, for example.

Kai,
I would think you could blame that on the chicken.
Beef doesn't seem to do that to me...Chicken does.

I wonder if this is simply a result of more dextrins in the beers we brew. Interesting experiment would be to brew a high and a low dextrin beer and limit yourself to one and then the other for a week.

To do that, you avoid the higher temperatures in the sacc rest?

Is that BBQ chicken or fried?

I blame the yeast. Suggest getting one of these:

I brew WITH style..... not necessarily TO style.....

Fried. In general fried foods seem to lead to a lot of gas.
