  Czech Beers

  OK.. so I raised this thread for a bit of the philosophical beer geek talk, that I found pretty exciting on this forum, and a bit of recipe discussion. So we sold the kids to my parents, and I took my wife to a trip through the Czech Republic a week, good week ago. We took it from Prague (you

  Is RAPT there yet?

  I just received an email from Kegland announcing software upgrades, mainly about how devices are registered and synced. This would be welcome. Although I have a brewzilla gen 4, I found RAPT to be clumsy and frustrating. I don’t use it. Brand New IOS & Android

  Random Drunken Thoughts Thread

  I like to see old people smoking. It gives me hope for the future. I really should get on upgrading my membership to this forum. I always feel like a ****** posting in my blue jacket. Northern Brewer, I haven't lived at that address for four years. Why did you ship my order there? Luckily it's next to my parent's house and only a twenty minute drive or I'd be pissed.

  What do you think it was?

  I have these two Czech beers I brewed a Czech dark lager and a Czech pale. They both have this really off taste, like sour wine and elmers glue. Its literally exactly the same in both even though they are very different beers. At first I thought it was from using loral as a bittering hop. Then

  What book is on your nightstand? Readers!

  There was a large thread on here before like this, but I'll be darned if I can find it. Someone recommended a couple of books on that thread, I added them to my kindle, and now I'm reading them, but now I can't find the thread. So, without further ado... who recommended The Master Butcher's Singing Club? I'm reading it now and it's fascinating.

  Yet Another LHBS closing

  Cadillac Straits in Madison Heights, MI announced yesterday that they are closing both the brewery and the homebrew supply shop. I could be mistaken, but think this is the last homebrewing shop in Metro Detroit. Sadly it was a 100 mile round trip for me so I could rarely use them. Its a shame as it was well-stocked. The brewery was good but has really struggled with staff--they had food, didn't have food, would occasionally not be able to staff the kitchen on a random night, etc.

  WY3711 Stall?

  When searching through the forum I see a lot of mentions of the other strains of saison yeast having a tendency to stall. I had the impression WY3711 did not do that. I was wrong. I put together an extract saison with 1 lb of corn sugar, 1 lb of wheat DME, and 6 lb of pilsen DME. I hit an

  Gardening: My Tomatoe and Pepper Progress

  I’ve been involved in gardening in one way or another since I was very young. I walked behind my dad in the garden when I was 3 or 4 years old helping to pick and plant. My grandpa recently passed away and he knew so many things about gardening that I wish I had listened to. I realize a lot

  How Can We Reverse The Homebrewing Downturn…

  Plenty enough bad news as of the last 2-3 years concerning our hobby. From LHBS closures, brewery closures, equipment manufacturers closing up shop, to the 21-30 yr olds drinking far less (ok…it’s good thing, but how about a healthy interest in the world of beer flavors to explore & enjoy with
