    Delayed Brew Day

    I had stopped at the LHBS last saturday. Here it is Friday, and I haven't brewed yet. I had the grains milled, am I ok?

    Half batch

    Can anyone walk me through anything I need to be aware of to halve a recipe? Or is it really just that simple? Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

    Two and 1/2 or three gallon batch

    Will it give me too much head space to put a smaller batch in a 5 gallon fermenting bucket? and yes it is 5 gallon and not 6.5.

    English Pale Ale Recipe suggestions?

    I am doing extract, not sure if I'm ready to make the AG jump yet. I had always shied away from English beers, since long ago, I tried a couple and didn't care for them. Lo and behold, They aren't so bad! Plus, I figured that it is easy drinking for the BMC crowd...

    Brewing in Hot Climates

    For those of us who live where it is only 10 degrees cooler than Hell, any tips or suggestions? Yes, I do have central heat and air, but I am also a cheap-ass who usually keeps the house about 80+/- in the summer... not optimal fermenting temps.... :cross:

    Recycling a yeast cake, cider to beer?

    I used Notty for a batch of basic cider, no spices added. Question is, is it possible to reuse this yeast cake for a beer, and if possible, what is a good candidate. I was thinking a witbier, seems like it might play nicely...

    Substitute secondary fermenter - Water jug?

    The 5 gallon water jugs that are returnable/reusable. If properly sanitized, are they ok for a secondary fermenter? First batch of cider is 2 weeks in, and my recipe says to rack to secondary for 2 more weeks....

    Trub Troubles?

    I made my first 5 gallon batch, but the directions that came with the kit were vague in some places. I ended up with the majority of the trub in my fermenting bucket. It has now been 4 days.... should I siphon the beer off into another bucket? It was a kit for American Amber Ale.
