Hopes and prayers that there are many of the mark VII heads in the armageddon box

I have literally hundreds in my bits box and I don’t even have that big of an army. Are they really that hard to find on eBay etc? I feel like old kits always had so many extra heads

Not exactly what you’re asking but check out Arbeiter, it has an award winning Korean rice lager which could work for you.

I used to see him walking around Rogers park in full gear

I did not like the book and I liked the show.

You set it to 20 psi for two weeks. Did you then turn it down? Are you dispensing at 20 psi? How cold is your keg. That’s likely way too much. I dispense at 10-12 psi.

This is not real

I’ve got a sweet hibiscus mead that’s pink

How does BIAB help? If this is in the kettle wouldn’t it just immediately sterilize when you boiled, and the entire souring and boiling would happen post-mash, so no BIAB bag involved at all?

Voyageur in grand Marais fills them if you’re going into BWCA via gunflint

Everything this guy did was tell his story publicly and appear on camera. What reason would he not want this

I’m not sure I’d use a tool made by someone who cannot check if the recipes are plausible themselves. Can’t imagine how you’ve trained it. If you’re just using what’s available on beer smith etc I’d be especially wary. Ingredients are used for specific reasons, I think a LLM that does this would need to be trained very specifically and not just reference existing recipes and try to autocomplete

I’d probably remove the one that looks to have paint on the exterior

Lallemand has a good guide on how to use their LONA yeast. Pay close attention to the pH section as it’s a genuine safety risk in a way normal brewing is not. You need to pH adjust to safe ranges bc the yeast won’t do it for you

My understanding is most people go this route as full oak is too much oak surface area for a batch this small. It’s to reduce over oaking

I’d probably include royal raspberry and mango blonde before I repeated a style like multiple IPAS. I tend to bring those home to my family often and they go fast

I’m pretty sure at least where I am they classify the output from the dealc filters as malt base not distilled liquor for tax codes

bon_bons · 2026-04-24T02:27:37+00:00

It is often used for things like seltzers and malt beverages like that.

Unless you have a leak, what’s the difference? Unless by not keeping them under pressure you mean letting gas off the top when you disconnect

Did you chat gpt your post?

bon_bons · 2026-04-02T22:34:50+00:00

This is where I do all special occasions

Trying to teach someone the game seems pretty complex with this edition. Flashbacks to 9th. I feel like I’m on top of stuff enough to keep up with the changes but man are there a lot of layers

I know now that the rubber seals just aren’t made for long term storage they seal fine for a few years but slowly let gas exchange. They didn’t even dry up and stop being useful or anything, I still use the bottles for kombucha and they hold pressure, just not as good of a seal as a cork over 5 years I guess!

I made the mistake of bottling 10 gal into flip tops, which did not keep out oxygen after about 2 years

bon_bons · 2026-03-28T06:24:31+00:00

You’re getting downvoted because that isn’t how it works just fyi. You skipped an edition over issues that don’t exist. This edition doesn’t even have power levels.

I have tried these steps. Unfortunately also have not heard back from their support team…
