Enter as may styles as you want. Winners from each round will face off in a final round with a recipe provided by our brewer.

interesting. I guess at the end they want to find the best brewer not just the best beer submission.

That's very interesting.

Looks like there are enough places already, but I like going to Mobile Industrial Welding Supply in Anaheim. Very close to The Bruery and the prices are good, though I don't remember them off the top of my head. http://www.mobileindustrialweldingsupply.com/ They're another that fills rather than ex...

California Tool & Welding, 1st St in Santa Ana. They fill rather than swap, IIRC my last fill there was like $8 but I was filling Argon tanks too. Corner of 1st and like Standard or something. Exit 55 @ 4th, go over the freeway, left on Tustin, right on 1st. Past Grand, uder the RR bridge and th...

The price has increased some, closing the gap between them and March. Not exactly. The $149 March pump does not have a SS head. I find these pumps very intriguing and will be very interested in Brent's experiences with them. I meant just from a price standpoint. They were originally like $109 or cl...

Watch the short video clip on their site. It would seem that they've fixed the original issues with better porting, a larger impeller and a larger motor. The price has increased some, closing the gap between them and March.

I wasn't there to taste it, but wheat and oats should be mashed. They won't contribute anything but starch haze when steeped.

Sadly I may have a few up for sale shortly. I got zero brews in last year and this year doesn't look much better. With the wife is hounding me to clean up the garage I have decided the brew equipment should probably go... :shock: :( :cry: Once I do an inventory of what I've got I'll start another t...
