    All boys, no caps

    Unless you are dropping the beer from a great hight and intentionally mixing lots of air into it, oxidation wont be a problem. When you rack, fill the secondary vessel from the bottom using a long tube attached to the tap on the primary vessel. I know Murrays microbrewery use a worlpool tank...

    All boys, no caps

    Sometimes, the fermented beer will have some Co2 in solution from the fermentation. When you add the sugar to it, the Co2 is released and it foams up.

    Increasing maltiness in Aussie PAs

    Aussie Ale malt, 5 to 10% JW caramalt and 1272 I really doubt coopers ..... or any large comercial brewing venture uses the malts available to us home brewers. They would have a custom malt made to their specifications to make the beer they want to make

    Simple but good recipe wanted

    Its the Pacific Gem that makes the beer an origional ale like beer, but it would work well with EKG or Styrian Goldings aallanced beers well. You will just need to adjust the bittering amount to the hops AA% Its just a nice dark ale your after and this will make you a nice ballanced easy to...

    Depression........Its real

    I have always resorted to alcahol....... which is what i am trying to change. If anything, contact with family and close friends. Conversation and knowing that your not alone in the world. A hug from my kids always works too :)

    Depression........Its real

    Mike, i have found the meds just level you and allow you a clear(er) line of thought. enough so to be able to start making better decisions. The certainly don't cure you. If anything they give you a kind of false sense of security at first thinking..... wow i feel great, and then you kind of...
