• BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

    The beer never sucks. It's beer. :D That 1 gallon set up does sound neat. I would use it to test prototype batches.

    Suppose it could work Ribby...just 1 gallon batches versus 5. Looks better than the Mr. Beer kits. The other kit is just 5 gallon buckets and when you bottle, it's 2 cases of bottles. Pretty compact for storage and such.

    The BOTL O'Beer Project

    Thanks to everyone. But I just got the first wave out. Let's all be sure to thank smokinghole's and JRL for their equal involvement here, their beers are stellar. This would not have happened without them as well as E's support.

    Doooooo it. It's a lot of fun. Honestly, homebrewers have an unwritten code. The person that teaches you how to brew puts the burden on you to teach the next person. PIF if you will.

    I gotta admit...that's pure genius and ingenuity at it's best. But cleaning has to be a nightmare
