That's really funny. I just went on the tour last weekend and meet a few people in that video. They were all really nice. DFH!

Thanks. Its in the primary now. You weren't lying about this brew being active! I made a few mistakes in the boil stage but as I have read just let it sit in the bottle longer and it will all work out. This beer was a good learning experience since all the other beers I made were extract kits. I...

I was getting fancy with my Nikon while enjoying a nice Stella. Pretty happy with the results.

Baby Cakes Brewery I tried a few different names but this one just stuck. My wife and I have a running joke when one of use would call the other baby cakes and the other would say babies don't eat cakes! Its silly I know but we crack up every time one of us says it. I told my wife the name and...

Thanks for tips on homebrew stores HeadyKilowatt and abarnett. :) I will have to check them out. Everybody at Keystone has been really nice. That must be a fun job. :mug:

Thanks for the info! I'm still learning so the help is much appreciated. Hopefully I have time to brew this weekend. :)

Wow this beer looks great! I've never done a partial mash and I had a quick question about the steeping the Flaked Wheat. I see in your pic that you have muslin bags. Can I just use them to steep the Flaked Wheat. I have a lot of them left over from the last brew. Also it says before boil so I...

I really like this recipe. My wife has been wanting to try a fruit type beer. I have a question about using a tertiary. I have never done that and I'm a little confused on the steps. So I would go from the primary to the secondary and let it ferment with the strawberries for a few weeks. Then...
