    Conversion from all grain to extract

    How about posting (or linking) a few AG recipes you’d like to convert? (I’m a concrete example guy)

    Nice haircut, did you get that from Walmart?

    Well, yeah, I did me a hole. That’s all I’ve got to say about that.

    Were you wearing a hoodie?

    Bought new caps, struggling to force them on. Is it the caps or the capper?

    I had a capper like that once. Eventually it started giving inconsistent results. Probably, over time, the bell got slightly deformed--probably made from some cheap, soft metal.

    Opinions on Extract Brewing

    I started brewing about 5 yrs ago. Like most everyone, I started with extract kits, poor fermentation temperature control, and bottling. My first few beers really sucked. Then I jumped on fermentation control fridges, AG BIAB, wort oxygenation, starters, and a full-on keezer setup. With...

    Czech Pills hop load!

    Perle for bittering and Saaz for late addition is a super-yummy combo.

    LG hitting the market with a new beer machine

    If the thing could make you a finished beer faster and cheaper than running down to the liquor store, I could see some kind of a market for it. I mean, it would need to kick out a decent, cold, fully carbonated beer in less than 3-5 minutes. Hmmm, what about that beer powder stuff I read about...

    Fermentation stopped early.. what to do?

    I too would like to know what temperature it's been fermenting. If you have a control system for that, maybe bump it up a few degrees. If not, move the carboy to a warmer place. Do you see any activity at all in the carboy? Has all the yeast flocced out already? You can physically rouse the...

    Natural carbonating kegs with CBC-1 or F-2 yeast

    I "sugar-speise" my 5gal cornys with about the same amount of sugar (approx. 1/3 of a full carbing charge). I wouldn't bother with the CBC-1 unless I made some 10%+ monster and/or it sat in the carboy for weeks and weeks, I just rely on the yeast already in the beer. I give it 3 days at room T...
