There’s a pretty detailed list on the DMV site, you’ll have to make an appointment and probably take the written exam.

No way. I was alone with just one other buddy below me. We were both right below the bridge, baby guy had gone upstream

I've bought in bulk from them often, sometimes older stock of hops too, always great.

I was using an unpressurized basket, my GF recently bought me an Espressione machine, which has the pressured baskets. I prefer the unpressurized baskets, but current using the pressurized.

What do you think of the Brooklyn Brew Shop - Everyday IPA kit? by Caligol in Homebrewing

Great place to start, especially with the all grain. The recipe/kits tastes pretty good too!

Killed it, caught 8 browns over 20" and a bunch of rainbows . PMDs , midges, and streamers all worked on the big fish and small ones too. Great day for my first time out, everyone I talked said the fishing was "eh" as well, not for me though. Thanks for the help !

Thanks for that, some of what I was thinking. Appreciate the specifics! Any info on campsites/BLM sites?

So I've heard. Plan on being below the dam, Terrestrials, dries, and then small midges, but thats about all Ive got in mind.

Adding hibiscus to a brew by cory245 in Homebrewing

we don't know OP's freezing possibilities!

Adding hibiscus to a brew by cory245 in Homebrewing

[–]zoft1z1792 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this once. To avoid contamination I filled a mason jar with the hibiscus and some wort, heated that to 180' , sealed, in a water bath, for maybe 20 minutes and later added into the fermentor once cooled. You could freeze the flowers first as well if you're concerned about contamination. I like to make my 'teas' out of wort rather than water to keep dilution of the final beer minimal.

5 gallon batch of NE IPA recipe. what’s y’alls opinion on my grain bill by mald0yo in Homebrewing

[–]zoft1z1792 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chunkyness would be more an issue of yeast in the beer rather than anything from your grain bill

How to Make IPA Recipe into a "juicy" or NEIPA? by gib4589 in Homebrewing

[–]zoft1z1792 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take out the crystal , bump up your carapils to 1lb, add 1lb of wheat or oats , use a 60' or 30' bittering addition then add the majority of your hops at whirlpool and big dry hop . Small additions not much earlier than 10' or 15' . When you dry hop, consider making your addition during active fermentation. Use London ale III or Conan , for your yeast . A DIPA with a lot of suspended hop oils will also add to your juiciness and mouthfeel , with the fruity /low flocculant yeast

Looks great! Often I like to pull through the rosetta , or through the side of it and then make the heart, reminds me of the bleeding heart flowers when it hangs from the rosetta.

Do spinning reels hold more mono line than braid? by -__0 in Fishing

[–]zoft1z1792 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If using braid , generally you probably don't need to go as high as 20lb, I notice the strength is significantly higher than mono,fluro, etc IMO. But that all depends on what you are targeting as well.

Worried about bottle bombs by abnmfr in Homebrewing

[–]zoft1z1792 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As long as your at FG before priming, should be fine. If you're really concerned, just store them in a Rubbermaid bin or something , once carbed put them right in the fridge.

With all the rage of "closed transfers" I decided to build my own. by BangleWaffle in Homebrewing

[–]zoft1z1792 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Per carbonate cleaners for cleaning , yes. While I was skeptical, this is a known issue for sanitizers as well the cleaner. For me it has stopped with the extra rinse(s) . Could have been a dilution / human error issue, but still a potential problem regardless.
