Dan, the first one is from a very talented artist named elias chatzoudis. not sure I spelled that right but he has tubes available to purchase that you can edit with photoshop. I can't remember where I got the second image I've had it in stock for a while for a winter lager I'm working on. a lot...

how about these?

+1 on the homebrewing, I think it'd be fun to swap some items. i'll have to see what I have on hand, I know I've got a keg of brown ale as well as an empty keg ready for my coffee stout, haven't sampled it lately, last I did the coffee was very forward, I'm hoping the time in secondary has...

it should be noted that you can make the batch that you have and still manage to chill the batch after the boil with the frigid outside temperatures or an ice bath. the wort chiller is definitely the better option but I wouldn't let not having one stop you from brewing. like you stated earlier...

I've brewed a few different beer kits, most of what I've done has been on a turkey fryer and pot. any pot will work, you don't need a false bottom there are other options such as paint strainer bags doing this as a BIAB. or simply netting most of the grains before you do your boil. pumpkinman is...

Ok this one had me laughing. And it would have hurt more except it came from a Georgia fan. Don't mean to hurt feelings just having a little fun.

hahaa thanks I needed a good laugh

come on up to Iowa, we'll show you how to drive on Ice. though I remember back when I was in miss. there were no plows and everything seemed to shut down. good luck down there

1.070 or 1.007? if it's the first I'd try and repitch some yeast (try and use the same kind as before) to get it moving along faster, I started my last batch maybe a week earlier and mine is now stabilized and ready to back sweeten. hope this helps let me know if you need any more info.

when did you start the batch? sometimes mine takes a day or two to show active fermentation, to warm the batch up you can try wrapping it with blankets, or set it in a hot bath. both of which have worked for me to renew a stuck fermentation. of course pitching another packet of yeast on top...

I'm with Bernard, can we get a few more details on this one? it sounds good and I've been wanting to do a carrot wine for a while now, this sounds right up my alley.

3 cans of concentrate would drop your abv from 12% to something close to 11.5%. I guess it all depends on what your acceptable loss to flavor ratio would be but I agree with Julie boiling it down would help concentrate it even more.

I have used cans of frozen concentrate to back sweeten it adds both flavor and some sugar, you'll have to go on taste but usually 3-4 cans for a 5 gallon batch is a good start.

fresh yeast will work fine, i'll warn you ahead of time when you goto aerate and add the last of nutrient and lemon juice, do it in the sink because in a carboy it'll foam everywhere...messy
