    Water Profile after filtration?

    What happens to my water profile if I run it through a charcoal filter? Does it strip it of everything? Does it just get rid of chlorine? Or should I just go with the water report and adjust it from there without running it through the filter? I haven't been able to brew a hoppy beer...

    Possibly too bitter? How to fix?

    During my brew I mixed up my aroma hop addition with my bittering addition, potentially making the beer too bitter for the amount of grains I used. Is there something I can do to bring up the malt flavor to balance out the bitterness? Add boiled DME to the secondary or primary? The...

    BYO Stone IPA gone wrong

    I planned on pulling off my first 10 gallon all grain yesterday, but ran into another first.... a stuck sparge. I crushed the grains to fine. I tried everything to save it but couldn't get more than 7 gallons out, so I changed gears and decided to just go for a 6 gallon batch. The SG was 1.080...

    Co2 tank placement

    Two questions: Are there any issues with the Co2 tank pressure when storing the tank inside the kegerator? Can you store the tank horizontally? I am trying to utilize the dead space where the drawer normally is.

    Ridiculously low efficiencies, why???

    I only have 4 all grain batches "under my belt" and thought I was doing well. By that I mean they all turned out good, tasted well. Until.....I entered all the data I had kept into Beersmith and brew365's ipod software, all my batches had efficiency ratings from 50%-60%. Yeah...I know...sad...

    Calculating dead space

    My last two batches have come up short on the final volume after transfer to the carboy. Short by a gallon!!!! I use a three tier system utilizing a pump and CFC and thought I figured in enough extra grain and water to compensate for beer left in the CFC and pump when the keggle ran dry, but...

    Second yeast addition

    At what point, or if ever do you add a second addition of yeast? I remember reading somewhere that adding a small amount of yeast a week or two after visible signs of fermentation has stopped that adding yeast will kick start the process, leading to higher ABV. Is this right? Anyone have...

    What to do, what to do? Advice needed

    I brewed the Stone IPA clone from the BYO article on Sunday Morning 3/29 with an OG of 1.055. Fermentation activity was good within a couple of hours and stayed active through Wednesday. Thursday and Friday no activity, so I decided to rack to secondary for dry hopping, and the gravity reading...

    Sparge/Vorlauf/Tanin extraction question

    During my first all grain brew, I noticed that the first/second runnings never really ran clear, meaning, I could still see little grain particles coming through, but never noticed any big bits of grain. My main question is, what is the nominal amount of slits or holes in a CPVC or Copper mash...
