  Legality isn't an issue. I do a lot of catering and know better than to serve a home brew to a
  paying customer. The mere fact that money changes hands means I can't serve it. At my CSA
  however we do c...

  Thanks everyone for your opinions.What I got from this is that I should carb naturally, C02 tap
  when ready to drink. It can't maintain carbonation for very long, but if you drink it fast
  it'll be fine...

  Hey guys, I'm ready to upgrade from bottling my 5gal batches to kegging them. Anyone have
  experience with this particular model -> not, what are some good small scale kegging setups
  people have used?

  I've successfully dry herbed a BSA with home grown Lavender and Chamomile flowers (3 days in
  secondary). They were washed after picking, I dried them myself and had no problems with

  Turning this into an IPA wouldn't be too bad of an idea, most of my ingredients outside of the
  hops are conducive to American Pale Ales. I'm toying with the idea of using 1272 yeast to
  synergize with ...

  So I'm about to start a 5 gal Pale Ale batch that has 1.5oz Simcoe for bittering and 2oz
  Cascade for Aroma then dry hopping with 4oz Citra and 2oz Sorachi Ace. At a a glance 9.5oz of
  hops seems like a...

  Sorachi is a really nice hop. I've used it once or twice and it does have a strong lemon
  presence imo. Give it a shot and see what you think. Also, post your recipeI'm still pretty new
  to home brewing...

  Hey guys, I'm looking to dry hop this ale I just started and have a few whole hop flower
  strains I've got in mind and want to hear some other opinions.I'm looking to make a very
  citrusy ale and have s...

  Usually starters are recommended with liquid yeast. What is the OG of this brew as per the
  instructions? If it is low enough you can many times get away with no starter with a wyeast
  pack.The OG is su...

  Perhaps I am still too new to be try out the 2-Row, maybe in a few more batches. I think you
  all are right about the grapefruit as well, the cascade hops should do fine on their own.Quick
  question abo...
