ha ha.... Joe! i would consider you a friend! i was just random googling "BHB" and found this forum. If you want to bring homebrewers up some brewday we can figure that out. With the expansion ...hopefully done... and working by Sept... we could even set up a brewday. Let me know. and...

they all died.. not enuff sun.

ha... looked at my old posts! i’ve come along way in 5 years! ... it was “ropey”. an infection. worst tasting beer ever.

Hello! Hey Glock I’m sorry if you felt slighted. I’m usually dealing with bathroom lines at our open houses! But that’s no excuse... i was probably swamped with beer issues. I have no problem talking hops we use. Mostly the standards with no one hop being used by itself. I...

do you think this is a diacetyl problem? the ferm temp is was around 70-72 degrees. hot georgia summers make it a pain to keep it even straight thru. i'm gonna keep an eye on this. I do have a feeling it could be a combo of hop oils.. and alot of yeast.

yeh... i'm looking at it now... maybe there's still a ton of yeast still suspended in the fluid. i'm not going to reuse this yeast cake though... i'm afraid it's tainted... but... it might not be... i should just move it to secondary... and see what happens.. huh?

Hello! Scott in Atlanta. My IPA OG 1060.... is about 7 days into a primary fermentation. I went today to check it...and ready to rack it over to secondary. I took a reading... it was at 1008. It was a very active fermentation... and i used almost a full cup of White Labs Calif. Ale Yeast that...

i'm gonna see what happens... or i'm gonna put them out on the front yard and piss the neighborhood association off. ha!

i just planted cascade and centennial ... i'm in kennesaw... so i'm hoping to get this off the ground and established... maybe some cones.

-What kind of priming sugar did you use? -How much priming sugar did you use and for what size batch? -Is it flat based on taste or lack of head? Corn Sugar. 1 cup for 6 gallons. flat as in a small pop... some gas... then no head... no bubbles... FLAT>

is it recomended to shake it? i figure that will mix captured o2 down into the beer? i primed it... (i'm pretty sure... that would be funny if i forgot..huh?... but i don't think so...)... it's been at room temp for the whole time it's been in the bottle... i lost a ribbon in a regional HB...

hello. I 'm hoping that the 2 hours of direct sunlight is gonna be enough for my hop plants. anyone else have any luck in limited sunlight? i'm curious.

wow... you would think it would go like gang busters. hmmm... is the yeast completely bad? dead?

hey. question. Can i use the beer gun to bottle my brew for the long term or is it just for a quick transport? here's the deal... i have a 13% RIS that will not carbonate. 6 weeks in bottle...and it's flat as can be. I'm thinking i killed all viable yeast cells when i got the ABV up so...
