Homebrew
Noticed a few of these types of bottles in the local stores on the weekend.
I got rid of all my Grolsch bottles, I prefer something you can cap.
All Howe Sounds, 650s and kegs.
Is there a Vancouver in Taiwan?! I had no idea!!
Nothing sums up my life's achievements like my stuffed corpse, suplexing a cougar.
did you do anything special to keep temps up when souring? sounds like 120f is the happy place for lacto; was thinking about using a heating blanket.
just did a saison using backyard hops [HTML_REMOVED] raspberries; next up will be a sour something…
we used a heating blanket, same as you're thinking.

It was a sad homecoming from vacation. Barleywine with PoMo hops from 2012 made a mess in the cabinet.
The heat do that?
WTF, Over?
Uhhh… Lame. Beer should be upright. Still never had a bomb, but my basement is pretty constant ~15C even now.

Yeah, it must have been the heat. Moved the rest to the basement after that.
Checked on my batch yesterday in the primary fermenter.. Popped the lid and a fruit fly or two flew out, not sure if I should bottle this batch, don't really want a bunch of vinegar :crybaby:
Anyone else ever have experience with fruit flies?

probably not the right place for this, but still along the same lines. Anyone distill at home?

funny that the warning is "This forum is for the discussion of COMMERCIAL liquor. Distillation discussion is not permitted.", yet the first thread I see is titled Moonshine.
(no, I don't know anything about it)

Crawled in I guess. I use an open primary fermenter- well a loose fitting lid atleast. I noticed fly "shucks" around the top of the bucket, but nothing lower. I've read the CO2 layer in primary protects against bugs..

Well with open fermentation you're going to have to roll with the punches.
You have a new name for that beer now. The Fly!

Brewed 11gal of oatmeal stout yesterday, gonna put it away until Xmas for a nice dark winter beer.
Also transferred our ESB from the Country Fair demo brew to keg yesterday. Nailed our gravity and it tastes really good. May dry-hop with something in honor of the Naughty Hidegard.
Also also finished carbonating my Belgian/Canadian Trippel. Came out at 10%ABV so this ones a sipper.
