Re: Dark Vanner (Bourbon barrel Imperial Dark Beer)

Looks good JP... Notty should handle the ABV... Might consider feeding some of the DME during primart next time to give the yeast a lower gravity wort to start with, and then get them excited with a feeding later to finish up... But you should be ok. What's your fermentation temp? Around 68°F shoul...

Dark Vanner (Bourbon barrel Imperial Dark Beer)

The name is inspired by my 3 year old daughter that calls Darth Vader, "Dark Vanner." Not sure that this would still qualify as a porter or stout, so I will just call it a dark beer. And Vader is Imperial and Dark side so it fits. 2.86# HME MrB Winter Dark HME 1.87# MrB St. Patrick's Irish...

Re: OMG Mr. Beer is freaking hilarious

But this also means to achieve any of the significant prizes, I'd be seriously breaking the law. Mashani....you've got it all wrong. There's no way that MB would promote criminal activity. Their customers that spend that much money would never break the law. They buy only enough beer ingedients to ...

Re: OMG Mr. Beer is freaking hilarious

I love how at their forum they insist that there are plenty of people that spend $2k+ a year to make the platinum level. Really? If you have that kind of dough you could make be making professional level beer. But I have so little faith in humanity sometimes, I believe there are people that would bl...

Re: OMG Mr. Beer is freaking hilarious

Wow, I got results! Hi James, Just FYI, I just got out of a meeting where we decided to push this email back to 6-8 weeks after purchase, so the issue should be resolved from this point forward. Don't know how to post just the video but I was reminded of this: http://www.ispot.tv/ad/73C3/fedex-grou...

Re: Le Petite Saison

Jeff, In BeerSmith Mobile, I built the Belle Saison ad a dry yeast with 200 Billion cells and the specs of the WY3711 and it's been pretty spot on. :cool: Since I found that Munich makes bubblegum when > 72... so a 75 degree ferment with both might be just right. I back this 100%. I pitched Munich ...

Re: OMG Mr. Beer is freaking hilarious

Wow, they already responded to my smart ass email: Hi James, Thanks for the feedback (I'm going to steal "stage 4 clinger," hope you don't mind). We've actually been discussing pushing the emails back a bit so people actually have time to brew and enjoy before we ask for reviews. We're alw...

Re: OMG Mr. Beer is freaking hilarious

The last time I ordered something I got an email from Mrs. Beer, and it kinda seemed like she was coming on me. It was very odd.

OMG Mr. Beer is freaking hilarious

So I ordered some Winter Dark refills because they are 1/2 price right now and I am extremely cheap. Literally one week later they send an email that is so needy I am reminded of my ex gf from high school: Hey Jim, We hope you love your new purchase! Is it everything you expected it to be? Have you ...

Re: Holiday Graff (because I'm feeling spooky)

Thanks Mashani, we're still kicking ideas around so far. It was just a coincidence seeing this thread when I did. What got us started talking about this was that BB2 and I are surrounded by apple orchards. At breakfast the other day I said I wondered if you could mash grains in apple juice instead ...

So perhaps next time he'll launch a titter twitter campaign.
Or maybe work harder on the tail end of the campaign. ;)
