I am selling a keggle and a sack of Pale Malt. The keggle has all stainless fittings and has been used only 5 or 6 times. Don't like doing 10gal batches as much as i thought I would. 3 piece ball valve, no sight glass or thermometer, just valve and dip tube. Top was cut with plasma cutter...

I have a collar from my now deceased keezer. It is made from a nice piece of cherry with a plywood backing. Solid as a rock. Faucets not included. It measures 35" x 21.5" Free for the taking, but if you want to bring some homebrew that would certainly be graciously accepted.

I know there are endless sources online to buy a stir-bar online, but like a spoiled brat... I want it now. Basically I just made a stirplate and have some yeast cultures. I want to propagate them this weekend to keep them going. Anyone know where to buy a stir-bar in a store? I live in...

My last three batches have been way off and I have tried a few different methods of troubleshooting. For instance today I brewed a pale ale with an estimated starting gravity of 1.035 and I hit 1.033. I collected 8 gallons of wort fly sparging over the course of about and hour and fifteen...

The "warmest" hot spot is 38F... I have some IPA in the secondary and I am fairly positive that fermentation is done though it came in a bit high as it does from time to time. Will the temperature affect clearing? I am pretty sure it won't be too bad but I want some piece of mind. As I have...

I can get concentrations for everything else. Has anyone in Boston or more specifically Jamaica Plain, MA know the general bicarbonate concentration in the water. They charge way too much to get it tested around here.

I got some Bramling Gold from my LHBS that is from the 2006 harvest and is a bit old (the price reflected that). It was marked 7.1% but I am sort of doubting that because of the condition. Is there some sort of chart I could look at. It really doesn't matter in the end... the beer will still...

I have done a couple kits so far and want to start doing original recipes. I am using a trial of BeerAlchemy on my mac and through research and determining which malts I like I came up with this simple hoppy pale ale I am calling Centre St Pale Ale (anyone here live in Jamaica Plain, MA?) I...

I am doing my 2nd batch and just transfered to a carboy for clearing and such. There was about a half gallon of what looked like dog poop. I think it is normal as the beer smells fantastic. It was just concerning that there was so much of it. My first batch didn't have nearly as much goop at...

As the title says I am brewing a brown ale with some British Ale yeast from white labs. I was doing a bit of poking around to see how it is. I discovered something shocking... it is bottom fermenting. I also read that it can be very risky to put it in a secondary fermenter because a lot of...
