    15 Minute Extract Bavarian Hefe: Too much hop flavor?

    What's up with thebrewingnetwork.com and beerdujour.com

    Anyone know? I can't get either site to load. On the brewing network I just get a white screen with this error message: With beerdujour I get nothing. It's like it doesn't even exist. Anyone know what's wrong?

    Hefe bottling question

    Ok, so my Weihenstephaner clone has been in the fermenter for 3 weeks and the gravity is the same today as when I checked it a week ago, so it's obviously done. But here is my question: It looks really clear for a Hefe. When I rack to the bottling bucket should I siphon more of the sediment...

    AHHH!!! Help ASAP, beer in bottling bucket, 10 points too high! What to do?

    FUCCCKKK So I was gonna bottle my Bell's K-zoo stout clone today after 23 days in primary. Just transferred it into the bottling bucket and the FG is about 9 points high (1.026-7 when it should be 1.017), and that's not counting the 1/2 cup of corn sugar!! Should I rehydrate & pitch some yeast...

    Need advice on pitching starter ASAP!! Wort is in fermenter, waiting for yeast!

    (sorry, I really hate to post this in 2 sections, but no one has even looked at it in the yeast section yet) So anyway I just got done brewing a Two-Hearted clone. I've been stepping up a yeast starter from the dregs of 2 bottles of Oberon on my stirplate since Tuesday. Yesterday I stepped it...

    Need advice on pitching starter ASAP!! Wort is in fermenter, waiting for yeast!

    So I just got done brewing a Two-Hearted clone. I've been stepping up a yeast starter from the dregs of 2 bottles of Oberon on my stirplate since Tuesday. Yesterday I stepped it up a 3rd or 4th time and put it into a 2L flask. I put it in the fridge today at about 3:45 when I was starting the...

    AHS's Two Hearted clone vs. eschatz's recipe

    I'm wondering which is best. (i.e. closest to real 2-hearted) Has anyone tried both, or have comments about either one relative to the real thing?

    Are any of these not good candidates for cellaring?

    So I've kinda started a 'cellar' (really just the back of one shelf in the basement fridge) and wanted to make sure these are good ones to age: Lagunitas Brown Shugga SN Bigfoot Founders Porter NB Abbey I'm pretty sure about the first two, but how about the others? They're still fairly...

    Dry hopping and KC Finings: Which do I do first?

    Ok so I brewed a Karankawa Pale Ale kit from AHB 2 weeks ago. It's in secondary now and isn't clearing up like I'd like it to (didn't have the best cold break), so I got some Super-Kleer KC finings. While at the LHBS I was like "hell, why not get some cascade to dry hop with while I'm at it"...

    How to empty your dishwasher's jet-dry dispenser?

    I tried taking the lid thingie out and sticking a paper towel down in it, but 3 saturated paper towels later, it's still not showing any sign of being close to empty. Any suggestions?

    too late to dry hop?

    Ok so I brewed on Jan 1 and racked to secondary on the 9th. I'm making Palmer's Cincinnati Pale Ale. I have about 1/3 oz of Cascade pellets left over that I meant to dry hop with when I racked to secondary, but somehow I totally forgot about it until tonight. Will I be wasting them if I dry...

    First-timer (sort of) looking for a non-boring recipe

    Sorry if I'm starting a redudnant thread here, but I have lots of web forum experience & couldn't really find what I'm looking for. Yes I read all of the "stone cold lead pipe", beginner extract brewing, and this vs. that stickies. I finally realized why there aren't a lot of "first-time newb"...
