Jul 21	comment	5 or 6 Gallon Glass Carboy @baka: Yeah it's not really a Burton Union, but that's what the article called it so that's what I used. But I've removed the phrase from the answer. I assume Brad Smith called it that because the effect is more like a Burton Union than a small blow-off tube to the top of a 6.5 gallon carboy.

Jul 3	comment	Cleaning & sanitizing NPT and weldless fittings Got it. Thanks.
Jul 2	comment	Cleaning & sanitizing NPT and weldless fittings OK, but does sanitizing a NPT connection require disassembly? Or can you just flush with PBW, hot water, and then Star San? By the time the wort reaches the outlet fitting of a plate chiller it will be well below 170 ˚F.
Jul 2	comment	Cleaning & sanitizing NPT and weldless fittings Good point about the heat, but please see my followup edit regarding other NPT fittings.

Jun 19	comment	How do you label your bottles? I do this. You can fit 3 short lines of text on those round labels, which I use for Date, Beer Name, and ABV. The 4-color packs are perfect, since I rarely have beers from more than 4 batches, so I just rotate the colors.
Jun 14	comment	Can you use only malted wheat to brew? @JeremyHolovacs: The Reinheitsgebot only allowed barley, hops, and water—not even yeast was a permitted ingredient. So virtually any beer made today would violate the standard, even with a small amount of wheat.

Jun 14	comment	Bubble, Bubble, Toil = Trouble? Brewing's Carbon Footprint While it's true that the CO2 from fermentation came from the atmosphere, I think it still counts as CO2 emissions. If you burn wood you produce CO2 emissions, even though the tree absorbed it. In fact, the carbon in fossil fuels was originally in the atmosphere, before it was absorbed by plants and algae, decomposed, pressurized for millennia, and finally drilled for commercial use.
