Just found out the 12 pack styrofoam box full of Belgium's best I sent to Jazmin's youngest in Puerto Rico on 4-21-2009 has not been received. Seems it was picked up from the mail store I used and that's the last anyone knows about it...................... UPS has it in for me This is the third time...

This is the science part of brewing. You have to act like your in the lab with Dr. Frank N Stein. He always calibrates. The best thing to do is to check the calibrations before you brew THEN DON"T TWIST THE HOLDER on those that have them. Water boils at 210 in the Dallas area and an ice bath sh...

Chris, I had a similar problem. It turned out my thermometer was WAY off. If you turn the holder that comes on some of them it resets the calibration if you don't hold the stem tight when you do it. I checked it and it was 20 degreees high! Yours could have been low leaving starches unconverted. Tha...

I'll take 20 sets.

My two cents on the Brewer Royale: The Brewer Royale has been based on the COC for a reason. It allows everyone to compete in a small event just among club members. The people who have won the Lone Star Circuit routinely entered 30 to 40 beers per event. This is not exaggeration; Richard Dobson, Mik...

When is the judging for this and when will you post the results?

I can take a load in the 4Runner, the seats fold down and I can take one passenger. It is almost 7 feet by 3.5 ft in the back and it's covered from the elements. Tell me when and where to met up.

After the tasting session at Orlando's I have come up with the following entries. (Please note there is no belgian strong dark ale!)
Kolsch, Still sweet mead, Old ale, Dortmunder, Black cherry cider, Baltic porter, Saison, Belgian Strong Golden Ale and Belgian dubbel.

Thanks Orlando and Terri ! A good time was had by all. It's always nice to have feedback from as many people as possible prior to plunking down money on entries your not sure of. We should have one of these get togethers prior to every competition entry. Thanks to everyone that tried my swill and of...

They were not allowing stores to put some imports on the shelves a couple of years back because of that law. They wanted some Belgian beers and other imports/craft beers to be relabeled as "malt liquor". Duvel Malt Liquor(!?!!) right up there next to Mickey's malt liquor....... They finall...

That's only for Dallas City water, if you live outside of Dallas chances are you get your water from a different source. Fred David has the report for Plano where the water just barely flows it's so hard!

You can contact the Dallas Water Utility and they will send you a full report. I have it at the lake house, but won't be down there for a while.
