    Collecting Snow To Use as Water

    Ha, my homebrew buddy and I made a Bavarian hefeweizen a couple weeks ago after a huge dump of snow. The locale was well away from the city, but there was probably a fair amount of wood smoke particles in the snow since it was cold. Also, there was a couple rocks and a leaf...so I must have...

    Induction kettle?

    Sorry to resurrect a dead thread, but with the recent BYO induction a article, I think it is worth it. I tested a bunch of pots out at my local homebrew shop.

    Basic Brewing: Low-Tech Lagering and Decoction Mashing

    Anyone have advice on what kind of pump to use? I went to Lowe's and saw a few options, but the only ones that were cheap didn't seem like they would go very high (i.e. have enough force to push the water through lots of tubing). Drilling some holes probably would be better, but I would rather...
