I got a morebeer kit last fall, but it turns out I won't be able to use it. I got as far as unpacking it, but never used it. Here is the link to the kit on their website: http://morebeer.com/view_product/15912/102142/Personal_Home_Brewery_%234_-_Bottling_Super_Deluxe. I also had some bottle...

So it looks like I might be getting sent to MD. Anyone else going? If so, what have you found for housing? I'm looking around the Jarrettsville area. If I have to go, I might as well get a little bit of property and be in the woods...

Anyone else here? Trying hard to get my $40 worth...

Someone at work was telling me about this event. I'll be buying my ticket soon. It's $35 or $40 depending how and when you get tickets. Lots of local craft beers to sample, a dinner voucher and some vaguely described home brewing stuff. What more can you ask for?

I read his book online. I probably should get a hard copy. Maybe when I get the extra bottles. I'm hoping to break out of using recipes. Make something of my own. I probably won't grow my own ingredients, though...

I'm starting withthe El Jefe recipe from brewer's apprentice. Eventually I want to try making a strong ale. Baby steps...

Bump. I just picked up kit #4 from morebeer and some ingredients from the Brewer's Apprentice. The kit came with twenty-four 22oz. bottles. It seems like that would be 6 short of enough for a 5 gallon batch. How much volume should I expect to lose before bottling? I don't mind losing a little...

I just read his next fight is a title defense vs Chael Sonnen. Dana also said champion or not, if he acts like that again he'll get cut. That was from an interview on Jim Rome Burning.

Too bad they couldn't give him a yellow card like they would've in Pride. You're right, I doubt they'll do anything to him unless he stops being a draw. I hope GSP beats him down. I felt the same way watching that fight as I did watching TUF heavyweights. The UFC needs some way to force the...

Silva will be fighting GSP next at 170. Agreed that the fights were mostly a letdown. I thought it was great that people were chanting Maia's (sp?) name during the fight. For a guy with so much talent (Silva) to act like that was just sad. The only thing that might have salvaged his reputation...

I have a side project I'm working on, and I need someone to help out with some logos. Price is more of a driver than schedule at this point. My expectations are confidentiality and ownership of the designs. PM if you're interested.

Try toasting it first. Medium to low heat for a few minutes in a dry sauce pan, stirring occasionally. It'll start to smell nutty and you'll hear some popping. Then rinse with cold water. +1 on the rice cooker and 1:2 quinoa:water ratio.

I put my bike gps in my son's pocket the other day so he could find out how fast he was going. He made it to just shy of 30 mph. He's in the phase where he just wants to straightline everything and use the wedge to control his speed.

Anyone have any ideas on how to get Verizon to give me the full discount for new every two a few months early? I tried calling and asking nicely, but no soap.

That weekend is the CES in Vegas.
