Well, I hate to dump my sorrows on you guys, but I need to dump them some place, even if it is on the opposite side of the globe from Texas. Anyway , it may be a long explaination, so if you are going to gripe quit reading now. I am a member of "The Golden Triangle Homebrewers Club" and we meet...

Not sure why you think I can't take it. I just wanted to know the definition. Hell, I did the show just to yank his chain! LOL And it looks like I yanked it hard :) Anyway, now the Brew Bubbas and I am anxiously waiting to see what the GURU of the North has in store for us..... If he is the...

Well, me thinks I should introduce me self also. I be Johnny Max from Southeast Texas. Me brews me own damn beer & me brew what me likes to drink. I have me own podcast www.BrewCrAzy.com I am a Texan by birth, but an Aussie by destiny (working toward it) And my Queen and I are planning an Aussie...

CRAP! :( That was my fear. I pictured me hog tied with an apple in my mouth being served to the Podcast community on a silver platter! He did not even do a show, I am thinking he is taking 4 weeks to.... "serve me up!" :o

Okay, some of you may recall that the Brew Bubbas and I picked on Ian and Graham Sanders (the Guru of the North) on the last BrewCrAzY show. Well, Graham posted his first show since we had a lot of fun at their expense and he basiclly apologized for not have time to put up a proper show and just...

What I do, is print out one sheet and take it to a copy place (office depot here) and get a few color copies. They do not run when they get wet and they are usually on a good grade of paper also.

After I had a few pints in me I had Ant trying to help me work on my Aussie accent. He said the more I drank the worse it got. As far as picking on you Aussies, well, there was the BrewCrAzY Aussie show, where we tried to learn a bunch of Aussie slang and sayings. Like "Thunder Box" or "a little...

I really don't want to go into too much detail, but I added some 5-Star pH adjuster to all my mash and sparge water. I noticed there was brown stuff floating in the water and the mash tun was getting shiny, but did not think much of it. I just thought the hot water was making the stains in my...

MAN! What a long thread! I sure loved the labels. Wish I was that good. I did give a bottle of 21.4% AVB All-Grain Beer to Ant when I met him. I call it Cause of DEATH. Here is my attempt at a label. Kinda plain

Late post here also........ Well, it was not fathers Day in Texas.... well, I guess it was, because I celebrated Fathers day in down town Houston with Ant & his 6 week old little pirate at the Flying Saucer. We each tried 22 different beers.... I mean Bee-uhs And we both got "Flying Saucer Beer...

I just dump the hops in my kettle. Now I don't recirculate with a pump or anything. After I chill down the wort, I remove the chiller and whirlpool the hell out of it, then I let it settle for at least 45 minutes. I just run the wort into my carboy until it gets to the hops. I leave all the...

Looking forward to meeting at the Flying Saucer Draught Emporium. I was checking out their web-page. I have not been there in about a year. They sell tasters or flights of their draught beers. You get five, 5 oz (296 ml) glasses Here are the flights they sell: ----------------------------------...

That would be a good idea. Captain Ron could sit back, eat a few biscuits and wash it down with a "Hand Crafted Ale" ;)

Well, I just got off the horn (that is phone for you who are clueless) with Ant and we will be getting together this Saturday at the Flying Saucer in Houston TEXAS! and we will attack the wall of 105 taps..... :D Ant said that it is his father's day beer weekend event. I asked my Queen what I...

Well, I always fly sparge now. I tried batch sparging a couple of times, but the efficiency SUCKED! :angry: When I brew a session beer (4.5 to 5.5 %) I average over 90% brewhouse efficiency. Now the bigger the beer the thicker the grain bed and my efficiency goes down (but always above 85%). A...

I have been on the Craft Brewer Digest for a while and it is almost dead. That is how I found this site. I believe Anthony mentioned that the Craft Brewer email Digest was almost dead because of the popularity on this site, so I had to find it. B)

:blink: That was drunk fingers me thinks............... OOPS! I will fix that, LOL :chug:

Well, I live almost 200 km away so I don't get there as often as i would like, but I have not had a bad beer there yet. Now, I have not had even 1/3 of the styles they have either. I guess with the large population of one of the largest cities in the world they sell a lot of beer. Close to my...

Captain Ron is hangin in there. As far as the file size I made only 17.7 megs so 3rd world countries with dial up internet can download them ;) For the record Graham and I are good friends and this is just part of our fun. Sorry if you come off looking a little "Brain Dead' Ian. You don'...

Well, we dedicated a whole show to explaining the BrewCast from down under and we hit a Graham SLAM! And I am sorry to say that we took poor little Ian down with Graham. I really did not want to do it, but the Brew Bubbas scripted and wrote all the funny stuff and we could not resist. It is...
