This article made the rounds on Facebook a while back, but figured It'd be good to share with everyone else https://www.themadfermentationist.com/2019/01/is-american-homebrewing-dying.html Brewing beer at home changed the course of my life. At first it was merely a fun way to explore my drink of cho...

Have 2 partially deconstructed/cut/drilled (so they unfortunately can never return "home" to their respective breweries) kegs available. If anyone is interested, I can bring them to the next meeting or meet you some time. I'll edit this and add pictures tonight! They're 1/2 bbl (15 gal)(or...

Just approached the finish line on my first Keezer build, have new draft line coming in tomorrow! :bounce: :drunken: Starting with 2 faucets now, have enough room for ~4-5 kegs and still have space for bottles/cans and my hops https://i.imgur.com/27zyh8m.jpg https://i.imgur.com/iJCdauD.jpg https://i...

The consumer confidence report has the highest values for the year and range of measured values for hardness, pH, TDS, etc Not sure of a more regular/recent report, may be able to request recent values from the water department https://lawrenceks.org/utilities/annual_report/ https://i.imgur.com/PT7Q...

James!
I'd love to come out to the store and help put on a demo some time. Unfortunately Nov 3rd, I'll be in New Orleans, but I'll mention it to John I and Travis J and see if they'd be available/interested. I'll definitely be in on a future date!

Is that Keggle still out there? Interested

I would be very interested in coordinating/setting up such an event out at Lawrence Creates. I can liason with Eric Kirkendall (kirkendall1@gmail.com) I know we did the...

In case anyone is curious, followed up with Patti, and there's plenty more hops for harvest
