Re: Brewcommune Confab -February 18th, 7PM

Oh, hey, looks like I'm getting divorced. So I might show up for this. Wait, what? That really sucks. Been there, done that, so if you need any advice or just someone to talk to, I am here for you (as I am sure are other members of the He Man Woman Haters Club). + 1 Brad W.

Re: pH too low.

Breweries Around San Mateo

Re: Barbed ball lock post for beer line cleaning

Which ball lock post did you add? I presume it has something like a shank and you use a nut on the back to affix it in place?

It's a profit deal! You have to have many categories to get many entries to generate lots of funds for the sponsoring club!

Re: Club Meeting – July 21, 2015 @ Barley Forge Brewing Co -
