20% off everything....I think they have to vacate by the end of the month. It's a smaller shop to begin with, but there's still a fair bit of gear and such, plus materials. It's in Mission Viejo near Alicia and Via Fabricante.

I'm not the best person to answer since I've been horrible at attending meetings (I'm trying to do better!) I thought the BrewBrawl was pretty good. I tried to write some comments, but it is tough to type out anything detailed. With the number of beers people brought you're going to have a challeng...

So, IMO, it's really two separate things - Brewbrawl is mostly a fun thing, and getting feedback face to face is a different and more useful thing. I like both (it sounds like this is where you were going, in some form). I can see that a problem will simply be fitting it all in: the group brews very...

Well, speaking for myself, while I'm bummed we didn't take that cool trophy home, it was still a pretty cool event to arrange - both the competition per se, and getting together with the other club afterward. All in good fun.

Hey Scott -

I think 30 PSI for 24 hours should get you pretty close. You might want to check it a couple times part way (i.e., shut off the 30 psi source, burp the keg down to serving pressure, and taking a sample with a picnic tap). Good luck!

Hey Will, are we doing BrewBrawl?

Some of us have friends or relatives who really like beer, but have discovered a gluten intolerance of one kind or another. There's a club in Portland ("Zero Tolerance Gluten-Free Homebrew Club") that's trying to spread the word on techniques. They try to webcast their meetings using Zoom ...

I will be there, with samples of what I will have just turned in for the comp. I'll also likely swing by the Brewhouse a bit earlier, too. Gamecraft does have food available, fyi.

This one is pretty local to me - was there Tuesday - it's a good place. Happy to meet folks there when it suits.

Hi - Every year, the Barley Forge brewery puts together a cycling team to raise money to fight MS. I've joined the Barley Forge team for a 100-mile fundraising ride to help change the lives of people affected by MS and drive progress getting rid of it. The ride takes place October 20 - my fundraisin...

...doesn't have to be beautiful, just functional. I'll probably replace the posts anyway. Have cash money. Pls PM me or talk to me Tuesday if you'll be at Windsor. - Jim

Good keg cleaning process tips from Chris. Only time I had a metallic flavor in recent memory was from (I think) a slight over-use of yeast nutrient...now I just skip it altogether. What is your water source? Any changes there?

Hey Will - are we brewbrawling at this one?

I should be able to make this one, with an Oktoberfest, if all goes to plan...

I now need to be in Phoenix Thursday - regrets!
