  • Not much to tell. Got into it because a coworker was doing it, and it looked interesting. I am a casual beer drinker, with my old normal everyday beer being (don't shoot me) MGD. After brewing my first batch, and would have to say that I am now more of a beer connesuer (I thing that's how you spell it). When I don't have any homebrew available, I cannot even think of drinking some cheap-ass $.50 beer anymore. I have to buy at the very least some sort of Sam Adams or Guiness, but even that pales in comparison.

    I usually let it set for about 2-3 weeks. That gives it plenty of time to ferment out. Then,
    I'll rack it into another carboy, add some finings, and let it set for about a month or so.
    This is the tim...

    I was thinking the same thing, but the "Bible" can't be wrong.

    This was my first time for having beer in a secondary at anything lower than room temp. I've
    brewed countless batches, but I am in the dark when it comes to temps that low.

    I'll lay out the scenario briefly. All grain brew a Strong Scotch Ale, using the recipe in the
    Master Home Brewer's Bible. Primary fermentation at 65 degrees for 2 weeks, secondary at 50
    degrees for 2...

  • Posted in thread: Scotch Ale Question on 09-22-2008 at 01:40 AM
    I've had a 10 gal. batch of a strong scotch ale in my secondaries at 50 degrees for about 2
    months (as per The Brewer's Bible), and I'm getting ready to bottle in about a week or so. My
    question is th...

    Did my first starter today with washed yeast (W1084 Irish Ale yeast), and I was pleased to see
    that the starter took off after about 15 min!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was a little concerned at

    Pretty cool! I think I might give it a whirl. One question, how did you attach the ball valve
    to the bottom of the funnel?

    Is that a homemade sightglass? If it is, is it a racking cane, and how well does it hold up?

    Hey MussBrew, All Seasons in Nashville wants $93 (that's with tax)!!!!!!!!!!!!! So the way I
    see it, you're getting a deal. It's pretty sad that I can order all my ingredients from
    Midwest, and it's c...

It all comes down to one question, WWJB? (What Would Jesus Brew?)
