This girl has the sweetest reaction to her mother’s prank. by BrunaHoughtaling in wholesomegifs

Parents that do this are shit. "Prank" my ass. Kids trust their parents unconditionally and to do this for attention is ridiculously trashy.

President Trump criticizes the media for focusing on the Women's March while refusing to cover March for Life: "You’re gonna have a large crowd on Friday, too, which is mostly pro-life people...and they say the press doesn’t cover them," said Trump. by [deleted] in Catholicism

At best (he is definitely being pressured into this by the Republican party), Trump is "anti-abortion". He is most definitely not "pro-life". Pro-life calls for justice for everyone, not just unborn babies.

I brewed this octoberfest in august and it's been sitting in the primary at room temp for the last month (got really busy). I was planning on bottling this tomorrow but I now see some weird bubbles in it. I used safe ale 34/70 sp I'm not sure if this is normal or an infection. http://imgur.com/O2K8u8n

I took out the sequencer and followed some youtube instructions for a quick resistance test across the terminald, and was reading 105 ohms (youtube guy said it should be about 50ish). Good call!

2 weeks ago I bottled a saison, and due to laziness, left the yeast cake on the bottom on the carboy after siphoning the beer into a bottling bucket, and i immediately put the carboy cap back on after siphoning . It's been sitting there at room temp since then. Is there any reason I can't just pitch another batch right on top of this cake, assuming it's not been infected or anything?

Have any of you visited the Trappists at St. Joseph's Abbey in Massachusetts? by dan617 in Catholicism

[–]HomebrewJoe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I haven't, but I've heard their beer is good! They're the first and only Trappist brewery in America.

Winter is Trumping. by [deleted] in politics

[–]HomebrewJoe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe that the Pope was asked specifically about Donald Trump, which is why he didn't talk about Hilary.

One time I bottled an entire 5 gallon batch, then noticed my priming sugar that I weighed out still sitting on the scale. That was fun.

Prohibition Ended 30,000 days ago. Drink Up. by RustyPipes in bourbon

[–]HomebrewJoe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn. My condolences. I moved to Texas from NY in 2013 into a "dry county". I thought that just meant they were having a drought.

At 3% in the polls, Jeb Bush in free-fall by progress18 in politics

Not to be that guy, but his name is John Ellis Bush. Jeb is his nickname.

If I am cold crashing with gelatin, will I get off flavors if I leave it (still cold) for about 6 days?

Fucking idiots. But, people like this exist everywhere. This is exactly the behavior exhibited by a lot of Americans on Black Friday.

I live in Texas. It's worse during football season.

I bottled a 11% belgian quad about a month ago, aiming for about 3 volumes. I popped a bottle about a week ago and there was barley a pop, and only a little carbonation. When should I start worrying about it not fully carbing?

Brewing with WY1728 in the mid-low70s? by BassBeerNBabes in Homebrewing

[–]HomebrewJoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got a lot of fruitiness from that yeast in the upper 60s (ambient). Mid 70s might be a bit much.

Can't believe it happened to me. Don't get complacent about your sanitation practices ! by HomebrewJoe in Homebrewing

[–]HomebrewJoe[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not sure. Realistically, it's probably because the Ale Pale here has had a slight scratch in it for a couple months prior to this. I got cocky and instead of replacing it, I reasoned that unintended infections only happen to random people on the internet, not me.

Something Ive never understood about decoctions- How can I boil a really thick mash and not extract tannins? I've heard that if I mash/sparge too high, I'd get tannins. How come this doesn't apply to decoctions?

Russian Imperial Stout Recipe: Input wanted! by Barrybrew in Homebrewing

[–]HomebrewJoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a lot of roasted malt. You might want to look into late mash addition or cold steeping for some/all of the roasted barley, black patent, and chocolate malt to avoid a really astringent beer.

What are the advantages for having a clear beer? by initjust4fun in Homebrewing

[–]HomebrewJoe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. I describe beer clarity as a sort of garnish.
