This is the process used to make wort for whisky, why not try it for beer making? Has anyone experimented with it? Or is there some reason this would be undesirable? Or is it all "malted" I was just reading my Scotch Whisky souvenir from last summer's trip and thought hey why not?

I want to reuse a cake I racked off the other day - but I have been busy so I took some out and washed it, put it in the fridge in case the remaining cake goes 'bad' whats the longest you have held a cake in primary before reusing? I believe I repitched on an old cake in a covered primary...

I am resurecting this thread - I want this to be my everyweek end type or beer dispensation method ha ha ha! I finally ordered my pump - so all I need are some fittings and a cooler. I have a corny of cellar aged brown ale waiting for its hand pump.

any honey will make alcohol, but liek everything else you get out what you put in. I have used store honey with ok results = alcohol. I have also used strong wild flower honey and dry hopped with cascade and got a really wild unique pale ale flavored beer the honey represented the crystal...

I don't believe that I under-hopped only because the beer sample I tasted between primary and secondary didn't tatse sweet. It seems that I am tasting residual corn sugar? Here is the recipe, but I don't remember the amounts. I used hop pellets for the first time so I don't know if they were...

Made a Brown Ale. Fermented out in a week or so, transferred to 2nd for a week and half to clear. Transferred to corny keg with 1/2-3/4 cup sugar and positive sealed with CO2 1.5 weeks later I hooked her up to the tap for a sample and its waem, but carbonated and sweet like soda? SO Is this...

So I imagine a few hundred grams in a 5 gal batch of some generic pale malt would be a good place to start if adding to a beer.

Anyone out there ever used dates? They have an amazing flavor and would contribute a fair amount of sugar maybe some fermentable and some not. I guess it would help to know the chemical make up of their sugars - but I reckon one could just mash them in like anything else - maybe even add...

Hi Johnny I do shop there, but only for corny kegs and the odd instrument, hose, fitting. The ingredients never fit my bill - Keystone HB is fanyastic huge selection of hops, extract, and grain as well as all the tools and toys. Bethlehem is a bit of a ride, but if your stocking up for a...
