Brewing 5 gal of cream ale right now. Thinking about how I want to build my brew stand.

 

Put my new bumper on today along with a 20" okledlightbar



now i feel like my tires are too narrow

 

That looks like your taco is smiling! Haha
Which bar is that ? And how wide are the tires...I like how they look

 

Tires look fine IMO. How do they perform? Much more important question.

 

I open the cream ale kit instead of the pale ale kit.

I'm still doing partial mash kits. I think the big difference is the grains and amount of hops. The cream ale has one ounce of hops at 60 mins. Don't pale ales have two hops?

 

Still never been but all my friends from school go alot

 

Keith, did you see this? http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/texas/209832-texas-classified-sticky-46.html#post6339138 LOL

There's a new one for ya

 

Watch out for public intox. The cops will get you on 6th street.

 

Not sure on components used, but yes, I did hear it was lowered and still had the body lift.

I would not doubt this. That is how you get the right stance.

 

Lower it 4", an give it a 6" body lift! Nothing better

 

Nice find

 

KCCO?

The cream ale became a comedy of errors. I'll explain in the morning.

 

Keep Calm Chive On

 

Like Keith said, there is a substantial amount of douche baggery, but 6th street is a great place to go to get balls to the wall. Not a good good place to relax and enjoy a good drink. We have a group of about 40 that meets every year to float the river; we meet in Austin the night before on 6th and it is a hell of a time. To sum it up, its a good experience, but not an everyday place.

 

Ah; the chive. Figures.

 

Everything went pretty smooth until I had to stir in the extract and add the hops. We were expecting some friends over for dinner so I needed to get this done asap. (Mistake 1 - brewing on a tight schedule) I added the hops, set the timer, and poured another beer. About twenty minutes into it I wanted to see what my gravity for the beer was (curiosity) and it read zero. I started trying to figure out why it was zero until I saw the full bottle of extract sitting on top of the ice chest. So I quickly poured/stirred the extract into the hot liquor (hot water) and reset my timer. *my first two brews went with no problems so I was due for something*

As I'm getting the tailgate of my truck ready to by my cooling stand it starts to mist/drizzle a little. So I had to quickly come up with a Plan B inside the garage. Once I started to chill the wort my 1/2" valve out of the tank clogged. I have never had that happen before (or heard of it) so I had to go with a Plan C of shaking/swirling the keggle and attempting to get it to flow. I ended up getting the five gallons (roughly) but had to go straight to the carboy with it.

After the chilled wort sat outside for five hours it was finally down to temp. I pitched the yeast and went to bed around 1am. This morning I have some bubbling and a little bit of krauzen on top so I'm hoping it all turns out okay.

But I still have to find out why the valve clogged up and cleanup from the brewing yesterday.
