Well, like many of you I'm a huge beer guy and would be classified as a beer snob. I've wanted to go gluten free for sometime and the only thing that has kept me from making the plunge is my love for beer. However I brew and what a great reason to prove to myself(and my wife) that all my...

Been brewing all grain for a year now and loving every minute especially when I've been drinking some excellent beer! The entire time I've started Home Brewing I always had my next step planned but I'm a little lost with where to go from here. Here's how I'm currently brewing and the...

Looking do make my first label for a Christmas Brew coming up. Has anyone found a good looking cheap option for Beer labels?

I've been looking at all the fermentation chambers post all week and starting to get excited about making my own. Do to a recent remodel I have the cabinet pictured below(does have a counter top) Could this build be as simple as cutting out a opening on the side for a mini fridge/AC window...

My wife has decided it'd be a great idea to brew a special Christmas beer as a present to our family. I can't argue with the chance to try a new brew! Any AG recipes out there that's been proven. Looking for something that even the non craft brew drinker would like. Maybe something with a...

Attempting my second batch doing all grain and I have a question on my set up. I put together a brew stand(janky but should work). Is there a rule of thumb for the distance between the HLT and mash tun? I ask because they are real close. Using two igloos with a spare arm. Thanks!

Been slowly upgrading my all grain setup and I recently came across some fountain(pop/soda) pumps through my work. Does anyone use fountain pumps when brewing? These pumps operated with CO2 but can work with forced air. I know I'll have a ton of cleaning to do but free is free!
