QUOTE (Texsox @ Feb 10, 2009 -> 10:40 PM) Would the artificial flavoring that they use on Sno-Cones work? That has grape or strawberry as a syrup. That is not a bad idea - it would depend on the ingrediants that are used in those things - when brewing I tend to think less is more b/c strange chemicals/additives can lead to off flavors in the final product

I am using the PB2 b/c I have herd mixed and mostly bad results when using nut extracts (thats what she said). I came across this thread and thought I would give it a try http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f12/peanut-but...t-butter-61538/

QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Feb 10, 2009 -> 10:03 PM) I'm sure DABearSoX is looking for a quicker turnaround on his beer. Got to keep the brews coming. Def correct on that...I ferment in a temp controlled mini fridge and I can only fit one carboy in there so bottle conditioned ales are the way I go... When I get a bigger apartment i may have to get a bigger fridge or chest freezer and start makin soem lagers

yea I have brewed with fruit, I have a Cherry wheat in the 2ndary as we speak.... And as for the peanut butter, it still has some oil that is affirmative but it is 85% less fat than normal peanut butter. Basically the oil that I do get from the powdered stuff will rise up to the top and when I rack to the secondary i will leave it behind. I asked the question what is everyones favorite b/c I am leaning towards using fruit flavoring when I bottle rather than using real fruit. I can't find grape fruit flavoring anywhere so I was hoping to use a different fruit. My other option is to add a welch's grape juice concentrate in the 2ndary, I just don't want the 2ndary fermentation to dry it out which is why I am leaning towards flavoring.

Yea....it's gonna be quite the experiment...i have been egged on by other brewers b/c from research online i can't find anyone that has actually tried doing it....I mean there's Pizza beer but no PB&J beer? I found a place that sells powdered peanut butter so I am going to use that for the peanut butter part obviously - using real peanut butter or peanuts who kill the beer with oils.

Ok more Jelly answers...i don't care about crunchy or creamy... (I have a reason, I am making a PB&J porter and I am trying to figure out the fruit flavor to use)

Waiting for my DD - 1800 back from fed/state - too bad it all goes to my credit cards...

What's your favorite PB&J flavor?

Big Frank's page is available....for $145...damn

QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Jan 31, 2009 -> 11:27 PM) Wow, I'm really impressed. Are you doing extract brew or are you doing grain and full mash? Keep on brewing!! All-grain mash - full boil Extract brewing is for cubs fans...hahaha j/k

QUOTE (daa84 @ Jan 31, 2009 -> 01:42 AM) mmm that sounds awesome im gonna do some homemade wings...got the recipe and process from alton browns "good eats"...i trust him with basically anything, but i just did a test run and damn they are good....you don't have to fry em, they are baked, so much healthier (though not completely healthy), yet still really crisp and tasty... http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/good-ea...cipe/index.html i'll probably experiment a bit with sauces but he had an asian orange glaze that looked phenomenal http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/good-ea...cipe/index.html don't trust him on the show about beer brewing...but other than that he does make some money stuff..

Beer, Yes I made it myself...have a brown, amber, wit, and german wheat to add the the mix

I love the comment under the story

Nice work Ken!

I'll always remember him for THAT at bat against Tampa Bay

Thome with 59 HRs in '09 BOOK IT!

god I hate it with a passion.... although, not as much as the damn Chevy John Mellencamp crap that was played 15-20 times in every major sporting event I watched on TV for 3 years... no wonder why Chevy is going to go out of business...

agreed

I've said from the beginning we had two great choices and his speech spoke volumes about his character. ^^^^^^^^^ I commend him with all my heart....

My GF got the HPV shot....all good over here!

QUOTE (klaus kinski @ Oct 14, 2008 -> 01:06 PM) I like the idea-I was there many times in 1977-a recovery year after the brief rebirth of the Richie Allen/Chuck Tanner teams. Harry Caray in his hey-day here-those old enough know how we had disappeared from the city's consciousness because of a very popular Cub team and many didnt care if we moved or not until that '77 team-saved the day until we had to go thru it again with Reinsdorf Amazing if that would have happened, myself and a lot of the others on this board would actually be Cubs fans.... So I say, hell, retire it just for that reason!
