  Any Homebrewers here? (more OT fluff)

  by Bendrr in

  2. friends

  i finally broke down yesterday and "did something".

  i did manage to last until about 5 pm, doing nothing.. i drove down to a homebrew supply shop and bought my first beer-making kit.

  i've read the directions several times, as well as done some research on the net so i feel fairly confident that i can do it.

  Greetings Bendrr.

  I have brewed my own beer for many years,I have a brew on the go now.

  There are no hard and fast rules for brewing,as Simon said,cleanliness is the most important thing.

  What I have done over the years is stick to what I got right,and improved as much as possible,for me thats been best bitters.

  I have always added a little more sugar than the instructions on beer kits say,not too much though,and watch the temperature of your brew when you add the yeast,72-74 degrees c is about right,and dont panic if nothing seems to happen for a day or so,depending on the yeast,it can take that long for it to 'kick in'.

  When your brew is foaming over the top of the tub,you will know youve got a good one.

  Good luck,

  Cheers,

  Rich.

  Hide and Seek

  by Sentinel in

  it seems to me that the real enemies are hiding and we have to find them.

  we have to locate them and force them out into the open, trying not hurt any innocents in the process.

  the stated purpose is that we are ridding them of their mafia government so they can be a free and productive society of iraqians, not to force them into bondage of the us.

  Dont worry Karen,Im waving at you,and you have a point,I have kept well away from the war/anti war discussions,not because I dont have an opinion,I do,Im just keeping them under my hat for the moment.

  What worries me,is that when Saddam and his henchmen realise that our forces are knocking on the doors of Baghdad,and he has nothing left to lose,what might he unleash in the way of chemicals,,,,scary,,.

  Take care,
