I've been looking for an online forum on greenhouses, but one with the members and following like this forum has (hard to find, I know). Looking for threads where people have compiled instructions, designs, and pictures on DIY topics centered around greenhouses, i.e. building the structure...

Did a high gravity, dark hazelnut brown ale. It's been in the carboy about two weeks, stopped bubbling about a week ago. I took a reading and its at 1.012 which should put me at 5.2% ABV. I tasted it and it tasted very carbonated, is there something wrong? It hasn't been bubbling, how can it...

Great oppotunity for a DIY progject. What do you think guys? Who's gonna be the first to try it out? Do you think this will be a better way to ferment? http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2007/09/070910100314.htm

First all grain brew this evening! I went straight into the carboy from the kettle without filtering the hops (used cascade pellets). Now my carboy is green and there is tons of stuff floating around. Is this ok, or do I need to get this stuff out before I pitch the yeast?

I've read fermentation to take a couple weeks in different carboys, and i've read to keep switching carboys for months; I've read carbonate it and don't carbonate it, what is mead usually? I've read fruit in the primary, and I've read fruit in secondary or tertiary. I've read use juice as...

Anyone got a good recipe? Had this last night for the first time, and I'm definitely a fan.

What are traditional Oktoberfest beers? Anyone know of really good kits for them? If I plan on brewing up anything else in the next two months, I need to make sure I've planned enough time for an Oktoberfest beer in my fermenting calendar :)

anyone here used cornies for fermenters before? I figured it was a pretty easy and cheap solution, you can just put the 3-piece lock on a small piece of tub on one of the air posts, blow off on the other. but i can't imagine drilling it and putting a stainless ball faucet on the outside is...

I have 70 grolsch bottles to use for my homebrew batches. If I make 5 gallon patches (40 pints / 40 bottles) I really only have to drink half of the batch before I can bottle something else :) Anyways, I need some trays for these bottles, right now they are just loose in boxes, and they can't...

Went to the HBS and the clerk gave me a muntons can of malt+yeastpacket to make a 5 gallon batch. But upon reading the can, it says it makes 6 gallons. What gives, and is this going to be a problem?

I plan on brewing my first batch (primary) this wednesday. The kit I have instructs me to go right to bottles (which I have). I have a ton of grolsch bottles which I hear work nicely :) My question is, instead of bottling, I read many people go to a stage called secondary? As in fermenting...
