As some if you may know, a while ago my wife got me a kegerator from a restaurant. Unfortunately, it sat outside for a bit longer than it should have due to lack of money to fix it up and room in the house. I started really working on it a few months ago and found that there are bugs and such...

I keep seeing brewers post about getting corny kegs for $25. Though I never see where they get them for that cheap. Can anyone clear this up for me? :drunk:

i have no idea why I ask these questions but I guess it makes for a fun way to get to know people and start up conversation haha. So, what is everyone's favorite beer to brew and favorite beer to drink during the autumn and winter seasons? Don't hesitate to name brands of the beers you enjoy...

My birthday isnt until June 11th but my wife got me a pretty sweet early gift. She got me a 4 tap kegerator. Its not like a mini fridge kegerator though. It looks like it came straight out of a bar. Its a about 6 ft long and also has a cooler built into it for bottles. My question for anyone...

I need suggestions on how to decorate my makeshift in home brewery/bar type deal. Judging by the names of my brews I'm thinking about going strange and creepy with it. Its something that actually judging by the people that frequent my beer haha. So anyone have any ideas? Im only in the design...

So, I've been wondering about culturing yeast. Mainly what it is and how to do it. I looked for a sticky or a thread on it but couldnt find anything. May have just overlooked it :drunk:. My main reason for asking is because I saw a culturing kit on morebeer.com and thought it looked...

I recently bought a cooler from Home Depot (one of the decent orange ones) to turn into a mash tun. My problem is that without thinking I bought a 5 gallon instead of a 10. Would a five gallon be useful during 5 gallon brews? If not I was thinking about using it for smaller or test brews or just...

I'm brewing an Irish Stout at the moment. This is coming from an extract kit. The kit states that I should have started fermenting with a gravity of 1.020. Which I did. They say that you can bottle in about a week. I usually wait two weeks before bottling beer I've made from a kit. The kit also...

I'm planning on growing my own hops shortly. My question is about storing them until planted. With rhizomes, how long can they be stored and how do I store them until planted? If they need stored for longer than I expect should I find a way to grow from seeds instead? And lastly, can I get hops...

I am brewing tomorrow with a premade kit. the came with one ounce of hops to add at 60 mins. I kind of want to get a more hoppy beer with this kit. Can i do 1/2 oz at 60 mins and 1/2 oz at 30 or 15 to achieve more of a hop flavor or should I just stick with the original recipe?

Im planning on starting my first all grain brew at the beginning of April. I want to do a chocolate stout. Im having trouble with the recipe. At least, deciding what the base malt should be. Would 10 lbs Maris Otter suffice? I have searched the site but cant seem to find an answer that really...

I read somewhere that kegging is easier than bottling. How so?

Hey there, Im just getting into homebrewing and Im starting out with, of course, the Mr. Beer kit. Its very easy to use and has really sparked my interest in taking home brewing to the next level. If there is anyone in the Fredericksburg/King George areas of Virginia that I can chat with in...
