I bought a new 5 burner gas stove last weekend and got up early this morning to see if I could make beer on it. Aside from making the house humid as heck, the stove and its "Power Burner" will bring the wort to a roiling boil in about 15 minutes from 170 degrees. I started with 3 gallons of tap...

Just wondering... I am way past that point in my life but me and my wife had a discussion on this. After all you are not buying alcohol per say, just the ingrediants to make it.

I know hops are used in Beer, but me and a friend were having a discussion today and we couldn't figure out what else you could use them for. You can't bake with them or make any kinda food with them that we know about. Anyone out there have any other uses for them ?

We sold our house after almost a year and a hurricane. To celebrate, I created the special label.

Howdy y'all, Been hanging around and asking questions now and thought I would introduce myself. I live in Austin Texas, work transferred me from Houston. I love Austin and wont move back. Been brewing for a while but just recently found this forum. I like the dark beers, porters and big...

I have been using a hydrometer for a while and am familiar with its use and function. Today was the first day I actually read the piece of paper that was in the new one I just bought. Tile is hard on glass instruments. Anyway, the paper said the "Neither Wine or Beer should be bottled until...
