    Clone of Dogfish head #61

    I'm going to attempt a clone of the Dogfish head #61. (IPA and wine) I think I have the ingredients down but the yeast selection has me stuck. Should I use the IPA yeast or a wine yeast? Has anyone ever made a beer like this and what yeast did you use?

    Faucets

    I'm having a problem with my tap faucets. I take them off after a keg is complete and soak them in sanitizer. However, I'm getting mold growing on the inside of it. If I put paper towel up it, it comes out with black on it. I think I just have cheap chrome faucets but was thinking of upgrading...

    Sweet Beer

    Lately I seem to be having a problem with the sweetness of my beer. I made a pale ale and a beer northern brewer calls Jamils Evil Twin. (should be an IPAesk beer) They both came out extremely sweet. Almost like honey beers. Has anyone encountered this issue? The first thing that came to mind...

    what went wrong?

    I recently brewed a golden strong Belgium ale for the second time. The first time it turned out amazing. The most recent, not so good. I followed my typical single infusion mash procedure, boiled, chilled, aerated and pitch from a yeast starter made the day before. I hit my gravity of 1081 and...

    New Way To Label

    I absolutely hate labeling. So i thought id share this website with anyone that likes the look of a label but hates the process of printing and getting them off. I bought these labels called beer clings which are basically vinyl and adhere to the bottle. Than you take them off and place them...

    Blichmann Beergun

    Hello All- I used my new beer gun last time for the first time. I had a moderately bad issue with foaming. (psi was at 4-5) I know conventional wisdom would be to turn down the psi and i did do that but it actually made the foaming worst. I began to notice that i could see bubbles coming...

    Will beer freeze in lines?

    I suppose the answer is yes but id like to throw some variables out there to decide how to build a kegerator. I have a Kelvinator fridge from the 70s or so that works great. Id like to turn it into a double keg kegerator. The problem is the handle to the fridge is horizontal right where the taps...
