  1. I hope you had that Romex cryo-treated and pre-burned-in so that your systems will sound their best!

    I did. Well actually Home Depot did it for me. They just left it out for a week or so during our winter months. It's gets wicked cold here.

    Before you bought the Romex, I hope that you asked ipodpj which Romex is the best sounding.

    I would have but he won't answer my PMs anymore after I pretty much told him he was an idiot and everyone sees through his BS. I guess I will have to make my own educated purchases with out being able to confer with the Douchey-Lama himself.

  2. Matt, just do it like I'm doing it. Keep it simple and you can do it easily at your place.

    Naaman, any update on the Pliny?

    It's in the secondary with 7oz of hops floating at the top. Should be ready by Sunday. Talk about a hop bomb.

    Made a saison yesterday with 10lbs of grain, 1lb candy sugar, 2 oz of hallertuaer for 60 min, and 1oz Styrian for the last 2 minutes. Pitched with some Belgium ale yeast. For the yeast I made a started last week and had it in the fridge waiting. Before I pitched it I tried a bit of the beer from the starter. I can definitely say that the flavor associated with Belgium beers can be attributed to the yeast.

    Sadly it look like this will be my last batch for a year:(

  3. Made a Pliny the Elder clone today. 10oz of hops in the boil and 7 more waiting for dry hopping. 13lbs grain in the mash. First time using the Brewtroller with temp probes. Realized that the way I was reading temps before was giving me the wrong reading. About 10 deg low:palm: Got it right though and boiled 8.5 gallons of wort. Ended up with 5.5 gal in the fermenter and .01 low on the OG. I guess I need to work on my sparge.

  4. Panasonic ZS3 camera to carry around when I don't want to haul around the D90

    What do you think of it? I am about to pull the trigger on 14 of them for my unit (along with 4 7Ds). I really wanted to get the new Sony HX5V but it won't be out for another month and the powers that be want them now.

  5. I'm looking into building a mixmasher, right now, too. There's a big gap between "too small" and "too big" in terms of motors...I'm thinking of just going to harbor freight, buying a cheap drill, and using that.

    I'll stick with a paddle till I get a little farther on into building it all up.
