FW: [mnbrewers] Cooperation sought from someone with a fruit press

by Michael Behrendt

FYI //Mike Behrendt <mailto:Mike.Behrendt@comcast.net> MGBrew(a)comcast.net From: mnbrewers(a)yahoogroups.com [mailto:mnbrewers@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Steve Dunlop Sent: Thursday, August 27, 2009 5:07 PM To: mnbrewers(a)yahoogroups.com Subject: [mnbrewers] Cooperation sought from someone with a fruit press I'm new here although I've been brewing ales, lagers, and mead for over ten years. We will be harvesting our first sizable crop of cider apples sometime in the next two months. The harvest will include Golden Russet, Kingston Black, Twistbody Jersey, and Yarlington Mill, plus dessert apples suitable for blending. It's difficult to judge but there should be 2-3 bushels all together (150 pounds). I do not have the money available to purchase a grinder and press at this time and am looking for someone who has one so that I could either give the apples away or arrange to borrow the necessary equipment to press them. I'm in the Northfield area and travel to downtown St. Paul every week.

Please send this to the MHBA list regarding the Renaissance Festival Contest

by Eric Swann

Members, We have a few openings left on the brewing demo team for the Renaissance Festival this upcoming weekend. Ingredients have been taken care of, but if you want to brew an historic style, feel free to purchase the necessary ingredients. (cheap is good, as these brews often turn out undrinkable) Please contact Eric Swann at mnbearhorn(a)yahoo.com, or 612-558-5138 if you're interested, and register at www.rennfestbeercup.com so we can have your name on the list to get in free. Did I mention that you can get into the festival for free? Thanks,Eric Swann

by Galvani

Ned, and have never taken the least pains to explain, the principles of either establishing or maintaining a commonwealth; and they look on this practical science as one which belongs not to men of learning and wisdom, but to those who have made it their especial study. How, then, can it be reasonable for such men to promise their assistance to the State, when they shall be compelled to it by necessity, while they are ignorant how to govern the republic when no necessity presses upon it, which is a much more easy task? Indeed, though it were true that the wise man loves not to thrust himself of his own accord into the administration of public affairs, but that if circumstances oblige him to it, then he does not refuse the office, yet I think that this science of civil legislation should in no wise be neglected by the philosopher, because all resources ought to be ready to his hand, which he knows not how soon he may be called on to use. VII. I have spoken thus at large for this reason, because in this work I have proposed to myself and undertaken a discussion on the government of a state; and in order to render it useful, I was bound, in the first place, to do away with this pusillanimous hesitation to mingle in public affairs. If there be any, therefore, who are too much influenced by the authority of the philosophers, let them consider the subject for a moment, and be guided by the opinions of those men whose authority and credit are greatest among learned men; whom I look upon, though some of them have not personally governed any state, as men who have nevertheless discharged a kind of office in the republic, inasmuch as they have made many investigations in

Bottling question

by Hatcher, Brian

Hi all, Say, I have a couple buddies here at work just getting into brewing extract beers and they have a question on aging beer. Steve is doing a bigger stout and wants to know which way is better, to age his stout in the secondary for 4-6 months, then bottle condition it for carbonation or go ahead and bottle, then let it sit for that same extended time. Can they join the club by just going to the website at http://www.mnbrewers.com/mhbadues.php ? Thanks and Cheers! ~Brian http://www.mnbrewers.com/ --- Brian Hatcher Sr. Master Scheduler C.P.I.M.
