I've been brewing (extract) for five years, and I've never had an infection and I've never seen anything like this. Quick search either comes up with too many results or irrelevant results. Looks like a possible infection, but when I tap on the fermenter the flakes fall into suspension which...

Hi all - I just got my latest shipment from AHS, and apparently the box was damaged in shipping. My bag of hop pellets took a direct hit, and now I essentially have hop powder instead of pellets. Does it matter, or just as usable?

So I unexpectedly ran out of bottles tonight. Pulled more beer off the trub than any of my previous batches. In desperation, I looked around and ended up with this: http://www.icemountainwater.com/Products/ThreeLiter.aspx I know it probably won't work to carb up and everything, but now...

Hi guys (and ladies?) - Been lurking a while, and finally started taking a closer look at the individual threads and sub-forums, etc. and decided to pull the trigger on the intro. Like most others, the interest was derived from a night of drinking too many "random" beers that I picked up...
