My friend gave me a vile of WLP099 Super High Gravity yeast the other day and I have no idea what beer to attempt with it... I also have a bunch of extra light DME laying around some Hallertau and Saaz packs. Any thoughts on what kind of high test beer could be done with this?

After my dumb screw incident on my last kegerator attempt: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/ge-walmart-fridge-into-kegerator-308879/ I finally succeeded with the Danby "Millennium" DAR482BLS model. I won't go into a heap of detail as I followed the directions here...

Any thoughts on these? Could this be adapted to fermentation? Says you can select any temp between 50f and 113f and will heat or cool depending on ambient.

I got the 50 foot roll of copper at HD and fount the sweat fittings at a refrigeration/HVAC place in town to mate the soft copper with the copper pipe. I just pex crimped on an extra washer hose I cut in half. Should do the job! I made it to fit the pot without going over the liquid level...

The first bloody NB beer kit I have bought and it's not even in the iBrewmaster app! I tried to enter it based on a 5 gallon boil and this is what it came up with... Surly furious Style: Imperial IPA OG: 1.064 Type: Partial Mash FG: 1.016 ABV: 6.29 % Calories: 209 IBU's: 106.75...

I might use these all the time now... Warm sanitizer to soften them and you just push them on... fantastic! Closed up my Amarone in minutes.

I had bought a new 5 gallon fermenting bucket for wine just before I started brewing beer and all the places I read stated you need a 6 gallon for the head on beer fermentation. So I ordered a fancy 6.5 gallon bucket from NB (great guys... 10 feet of bubble wrap for a bucket? lol) and when...

I saw these cheap... could add a gauge at the top of each where the tire pressure gauge goes? They look adjustable but could they go that low?

I just finished a growler from Fitger's Brewery in Duluth, MN of their "Big Boat Bourbon Barrel Chocolate Stout" and it was amazing... anyone know of a partial mash or extract kit that might give these flavours? Did I mention 3 six ounce glasses gave me a face buzz... lol Love that stuff!

Someone near me is selling this nice flour and cereal mill... It look nice... would it work for all grain brewing do you think? I'd be using it for Brew in a bag... so a slightly finer milling might be desirable?

I want to automate/control the banjo burner by using the Auber 1/16 DIN PID Temperature Controller and an ASCO solenoid valve for the propane. Maybe add a timer or two. Would there be any point in utilizing the ramp/soak version in a one pot brew structure to control the various stages of...

We want to do an AHS pumpkin ale brew this spring to drink in the fall. After reading every post I can find on this I'm looking for an opinion on this way to go. We are going to buy two kits and do a full boil in a 15 gallon pot. Start with 10.5 gallons of water to account for boil off...

Before we digress... I'm positive one day I will probably upgrade to a corney keg system but for lack of space and refrigeration we are using mini kegs for a while first. So... Before we invest in a homebrew mini-mash/extract brewing setup we decided to try it at a brew-your-own business...
