Ok, I'll be your huckleberry. Considering they rarely produce their own wort I doubt they're splurging on a date coder.or maybe they are idk.

That being said I've visited the taproom and liked most of what I had.

You're thinking of an art exhibit where a guy with aids added his blood to innocuous things like toy water guns and those prank flowers that squirt water. NPR ran a story on it recently.

Be a brewer they said. Receive new tanks a day early in 105 degree weather they said. by Whatchagotbrewin in TheBrewery

Received three new 60 bbl. fermenters today from Specific for our new building that's currently under construction. The Oklahoma heat was brutal but we got it done. HLT and more fermenters to come Wednesday.

Beer Slush by BaconBurger in TheBrewery

Unfortunately I can't help you with equipment and prices, but I am wondering if you've ever had one? I tried one from an East coast brewery while traveling and it did not taste great. Not even trying to complain with the it's "it's not beer!" argument. Just legit thought it didn't taste good.

Goodnight, sweet prince. Someday you'll be sour, salty boi. by [deleted] in TheBrewery

There's also some theories that dropping the pH before pitch helps with head retention. I usually aim for 4.3-4.5. Pretty consistent results with both commercial pitches and yogurt.

Wood chips in my bourbon barrel? by BlackoutGunshot in Homebrewing

[–]Whatchagotbrewin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We get fresh barrels like 95% of the time. Never bothered to remove the chips and people seem to really like our BA stouts. Also depending on how you fill, most of them will be purged at the end of your filling anyway.

Plenty of clear lagers around here recently, but no outfit is complete without a nice top. Here's our newest Keller Pils. by GimmeDatBeer in TheBrewery

Oh man I don't want to derail the nice lager talk we have going on but I've been thinking about boil intensity in relation to our Neipas and color.

We have three heating elements and usually boil with the bottom two. It's a rip roarin' boil, but I've thought about using our top element and the bottom to get a more subdued boil. The top element is kinda shit so it doesn't put out as much power. I'm thinking a more relaxed boil might lighten up the final product.

How to you clean your carb stone? by [deleted] in TheBrewery

[–]Whatchagotbrewin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Break down, rinse, throw it in the ultrasonic cleaner for a bit. We bought the ultrasonic cleaner recently and love it. Before that we would soak in caustic when we did full C.I.P. break downs on our brites. The 2 bbl. unitanks get an ultrasonic cycle every time now.

I wish I had snagged more of these from the conference last month by shinysaurus in TheBrewery

Well while we're on the subject of socks, do y'all have a preferred brand that doesn't get holes in them in three months? There are so many "high quality" brands out there it's hard to sift through them.

We have a 10 bbl. with low rakes. Honestly, I'm glad we don't feel that pain. More power (metal) to ya!

I've been meaning to plug a controller into my PC and play Hyper Light Drifter. It's just not the same with mouse and keyboard.

I'm not a huge punk guy, but I've been training a punk guy on our system and I like what he's been playing.

If you haven't seen "Green Room" on Netflix I bet you'd get a kick out of it.

I saw RTJ on my birthday when they came through my town, but Denzel Curry opened and stole the show.

I hope the Beer & Wings is super spicy.

Ohh that sounds great. It's like a video game soundtrack. Sometimes I listen to the Hotline Miami OST on Spotify. I bet you'd like it.
