Dont worry though...I'm just as much of a ...
I unplugged the kegerator to plug in a shop vac real quick. Then forgot to plug it back in. Luckily there was no beer in there but there was beef and chicken in the freezer that sat in the heat of the garage for over a week. It stinks bad dude. |

Northern Brewer and Midwest Supplies are both great retailers. I'm fortunate enough to live close to both, and use both, depending on which is more convenient at the time. Never mail ordered from either, but I've heard great things about both of them in that respect - I believe Midwest may be a little cheaper.
I know they give at 10% discount to AHA members in the stores. Not sure if it applies to online orders or not, but might be worth checking, if you're a member. |

Ok just put my first wort in the fermenter. We'll see how it turns out.

I used a blonde ale malt extract and some honey along with the half the booster. Just using a MR Beer kit for now until I get a little practice. The shit actually smelled great though.

Thanks
I just have one question... the only way i have to keep the temp stable is to ferment it in the house I have it in one of those soft coolers zipped up almost all the way. Could this be risking a huge mess?I'm going out of town for a week and I don't want that shit to explode all over my house lol. |

I once left for a few days and it blew just hard enough to blow all the water out of my air water -lock, and ruined a batch...i dont think you could make too much of a mess tho besides a little spilled brew If you are past the violent stage, you SHOULD be ok....maybe just leave your heater at like 61 ? When are you leaving??

you should be good by then, especially if you build/use a larger water lock like the one above
