I suppose all of us at one time or another have managed to install the blade
backwards on our tablesaw and wondered why the hell the thing wasn't cutting
worth a damn, but I've never had it happen on my bandsaw before. I was
uncoiling a 1/4" blade from storage and somehow I managed to get the thing
turned inside out, and it never occurred to me to check the direction of the
teeth while installing it. Come ON, no blade could possibly be THAT dull!
Be careful out there. :-)

My favorites at the moment are Southern Star, Buried Hatchet. That is a
chocolaty, coffee, molasses flavored stout. My son introduced this one
to me and now I have an expensive habit. Prior to drinking this beer I
did not see the point in drinking beer.
This is made in a tiny brewery that did not exist 5 years ago.
My on find and a favorite is a Buffalo Bills, Blueberry Stout.

I have! Vodka is not carbonated. BTW - how in the hell do you drink a beer
that is not carbonated? Even if it's croisan brewed, it still is
carbonated...

Instead of a left-labeled saw blade, they could make a universal blade that
comes with stickers that you apply yourself. Cooler stickers would also be

Yup - hops is a flavor ingredient. Sugar and yeast are the culprits
responsible for the alcohol content.

Been there, done that on both table saw and band saw. Actually on the
band saw I caught myself but not before I had done most of the work of
installing it.

Not a bandsaw, but I've experienced essentially the same problem. I
was trying to drill a hole sight unseen under a desk sight in the
process of running computer cables. I couldn't understand why it was
so difficult to drill. After ten minutes, I decided to run down to the
store and buy a completely new drill bit and tried it again. Still the
same problem. It took me well over half an hour with a whole lot of
cursing and swearing to realize that I had the drill in reverse. I
really am an idiot sometimes.
An no, never experienced the reversed tablesaw blade problem. <G>

Used to do that myself. Never did spit.
I did that on my circular saw. I am a lefty and bought a porter cable
left hand saw many years ago. I needed to put a ply blade on to cut up a
couple of cabinets I got sitting by a curb. I needed to cut the toe
kicks out to put wheels on the bottm.
Being a left hand saw, I mounted the label so it was visible. Boy the
smoke... did I feel stupid...

Mike I would gladly send you one but I visited the brewery a few weeks
ago and Buried Hatchet is brewed cold and it stays that way till you
walk out of the store with it. Now if you are willing to take a hot one
I'll gladly send one to you. From what I understand it is best not to
let them warm up and rechill.

Did you do that last night at about 8 o'clock during your beer gusseling
session with your other buddies? :~)
I was invited but lacked the proper equipment and was therefore
dismissed with a laugh. LOL
Many times the lack of temperature control makes it bitter. Brewing too
fast changes the flavour.
Natural carbonation happening on the bottle can be dangerous as in the
old days when glass bottles exploded.
-------------
"-MIKE-" wrote in message news:[email protected]...
All this stuff can be googled of course, but carbonation is a byproduct
of fermentation.... I heard a brewer refer to it as "yeast farts." The
problem is it escapes out of the liquid, unless it's sealed. Some beers
are "bottle conditioned" and left to ferment a bit longer after being
bottled. Some beers have been allowed to gas out all their carbonation
and are "charged" with CO2 or Nitrogen. I'm sure I have some details
mixed up.
I believe adding more hops at some point in the brewing process
increases alcohol content/fermentation and obviously adds bitterness.
That could be what he's referring to. AFAIK, when someone says a beer
is
"hoppy" they're talking about the bitter taste and the citrusy, flowery
smell of the beer.

Croisan (sp?) brewing is a touchy process. It's still practiced by some
commercial and home brewers today. In yesteryear, more of the home brewing
explosions were a result of the bottles used by home brewers than by the
actual process though. It does create an increase in pressure as the
secondary fermentation takes place, and good bottles are a must, or things
can go bust.

Oh man - lots of work to do on you Leon! Beer is not about chocolate, or

I've thought about it but I'm not supposed to drink alcohol so there is little
point (I'll have some NA beer for turkey dinner in a few minutes). :-(

What I meant to say was we go with a really toned down "hoppie" beer
with a particular smokey, chocolatey, coffee, fruity flavor.

I could be wrong here but when I mention carbonation and beer and all
the beer experts, those at the brewery making the stuff, tend to correct
me and refer to the beer being hoppie. No carbonated water is used, the
hops make the fiz.

Exactly, If you ain't paying about $10 for a 4 or 6 pack you are

I am finding that I prefer the oatmeal stouts, although the Buried

I had a headache this morning too (which is when my bandsaw was making fun of
me), and I only had that one Christmas Ale! I agree with Karl; it's Mike's
fault. I mean who in their right mind would turn a bandsaw blade inside out?

It wasn't the Sam Adams that have you the headache.
It was the four *good* beers it took to get taste of Sam Adams out of
your mouth. :-)

An uncle used to brew root beer in his basement. Evedently, one time he got a
little carried away with the "secondary" fermentation and he had a chain
reaction of bottles exploding. After cleaning up that mess, he always stored
the bottled brew in garbage cans.

I have a home brew kit ready to go, but I have to wait until I have a
couple months of cold weather so I have somewhere cool to store the
bucket while it ferments.

In my defense I'd removed the blade and coiled it up for cleaning (tossed the
blade in a round plastic tub, sprayed with oven cleaner, and scrubbed), so the
saw was already adjusted for that particular blade when I uncoiled and
reinstalled it. I really had no reason to think I couldn't just fire up the
saw and start cutting. :-)

Bwaa hah hah! I used to drink Sam Adams a decade or so again (whenever it
first started showing up in my area), but only for a couple of years and I
haven't had one in a LONG time. I tried a Boston Lager a few weeks ago and was
rather repulsed... I actually used to drink this stuff? I like a beer with
flavor but Good Lord they don't need to beat you over the head with it!

FWIW, that Buried Hatchet is just a strong stout.
The "chocolate, or molasses, or coffee" is just a description of the
flavors and scents, not any infusions.

I used to home brew a lot in 80's & 90's but took the brewery abart
about 6 years ago or so. I'm getting ready to add 360 square ft to
the shop so maybe I'll have room again. Three 15 gallon stainless
steel vessels with screens fitted and drain valves & thermometer
welded in. All 3 have there own 35K BTU burner and they drain from
one vessel to the next as you mash & sparge and boil. Anyway the hops
are pretty much for bittering and the beginning of the mash and mostly
for the nose at the end. The temperature is generally between 150 and
158 F for extracting the sugars. Some step procecdures will start
with a lower temperature but generally with todays grains the low rest
stop isn't necessary. The high temperature destroys the enzymes that
help extract the sugars so when you are ending the mashing process you
actually kick it up to 168-170 F to stop the reaction.

You drink it the next morning after you realized you opened it up last night
and forgot where you put it.

"Best not to let warm up" is the case for most beers, really. However,
it's often only a case of going from "spectacularly mind blowing" to
"ridiculously good tasting." :-)
Or in the case of Bud and Miller, "cold piss" to "warm piss."

Add pretty much any from a non-craft, beer conglomerate.... which I
think has been recently narrowed down to 2, worldwide.

All this stuff can be googled of course, but carbonation is a byproduct
of fermentation.... I heard a brewer refer to it as "yeast farts." The
problem is it escapes out of the liquid, unless it's sealed. Some beers
are "bottle conditioned" and left to ferment a bit longer after being
bottled. Some beers have been allowed to gas out all their carbonation
and are "charged" with CO2 or Nitrogen. I'm sure I have some details
mixed up.
I believe adding more hops at some point in the brewing process
increases alcohol content/fermentation and obviously adds bitterness.
That could be what he's referring to. AFAIK, when someone says a beer is
"hoppy" they're talking about the bitter taste and the citrusy, flowery
smell of the beer.

I'm blaming it all it on Mike. I cut the birds mouth in the wrong place
on six rafters this morning ... just what the hell was in that Christmas
Ale?? :)
Then again, it may have been that Texas Red Tongue Oil ...

Anyone make a beer with nicotine in it?
I could then drink a beer and not keep reaching for a cigarette after 20
years.

Yeah, and flip the plug in the wall if it was going the wrong
direction, too.

I guess there shouled be an addition to that long list of left handed
pencils, screw drivers, wrenches, etc., we need to add the left labeled

Oddly I normally don't have a head ache after a few beers, but I tried
Samuel Aiems Christmas Ale and one bottle gave me a head ache.
