    Fireside Ale Concept

    Hey guys Well after brewing about a dozen kits with only minor changes made to them (extra pounds of honey, tablespoon of cinnamon, that kind of thing) I am finally throwing the book out and going for my first off-the-cuff brew. Wanted some opinions from you guys about how this will turn out. It...

    It's official starting my own brewing business!

    33 pages...i want an award (or another beer) for reading that across the past 47 minutes (yeah thats right, I timed it...) First off, I wish you GREAT luck in what you are doing. I've be a part of two small business ventures (neither were beer related) that couldn't have been more fun, or a...

    R.O water

    That's exactly what I do. My "waste" water is either collected into a side barrel for the plants/garden/lawn. Or I put it directly into my washing machine. My main problem where I live (for both brewing and my saltwater tank) was high chlorine AND also the addition of chloromine. There is also...

    R.O water

    Or purchase an RO system for your home. Since I keep large saltwater aquariums, I already have one. The only difference is I skip the "d-ionization" step for beer water, since I do still want some light levels of metals in the water. Check out bulkreefsupply.com for a filter, they can be had for...

    Defrosting fridge?

    Sure. As long as the hole you are drilling is in the door where there are no cooling elements or electronics you will be fine.

    sediment ring in the top of my primary?

    After doing a bunch of reading here and other places, I ser where you are coming from on the no-secondary method. My idea was to go the long way the first time, then shorten it down as my batches got better and more consistent. I just wanted to form my own opinion of both schools of thought from...

    sediment ring in the top of my primary?

    Chump, thank you for the quick reply, I will leave it as it stands. I plan on moving this to my secondary (6 gallon better bottle) in about a weeks time. I'll be sure to clean/sterilize after this batch for sure!

    sediment ring in the top of my primary?

    Hey all Quick question. I just opened my primary (6 gallon plastic bucket) for the first time to take a look and smell, and found there is a ring of sediment about a half inch above the top of the foam. Should I mix this back in, or just leave it there? This batch was pitched Sunday night...

    Back in the Wort!

    Hey all! Just got back into brewing. Did a little of it back in the early 2000's for a couple years, but never on any serious scale. I bought one of those Mr. Beer mini-brewers but eventually realized that 1 gallon of beer after a 4 week wait was just not worth it anymore. Well the bug...
