    BeerTherm - A Temperature Control System

    I came across this, and was wondering if anyone has seen or used it yet. It's called BeerTherm, and it's a heating and cooling fermentation chamber. http://beertherm.com/

    Meijer Spring Water Profile

    I just received the water profile for Meijer spring water and thought I'd share it. Bicarbonate 260 Calcium 79 Chloride 15 Magnesium 26 Sodium 8 Sulfate 24 Alkalinity 260 pH 7.92 This makes sense to me because before I...

    Disappointed with Newcastle

    I bought a bottle of Newcastle yesterday because I've never tried it and was very disappointed. The beer was so skunky I wanted to throw up. When I grabbed one I wasn't even thinking about the fact that it was in a clear glass bottle. I felt like it was good behind the intense skunkiness. I...

    Home Depot Water Coolers

    I have a 5 gallon Home Depot water cooler that I converted into a mash tun via an HBT thread. I was wondering, if I were to buy the 10 gallon cooler, would I be able to just swap my hardware between the coolers or do I need new? Is the spigot hole the same dimensions on both coolers? Thanks...

    Meijer Spring Water

    I looked, but haven't been able to find anything out about the Meijer spring water. Does anyone know the profile of Meijer spring water or know who to contact to get that information?

    Don't do what I did

    When preheating your mash tun with boiling water, don't dump it in the grass. The grass WILL die!

    Attenuation Question

    I just bottled my first AG batch. When I measured my FG, it seemed low at 1.007. My OG was 1.051, and I used WL001. The FG seems a little bit low for the yeast and mash. I mashed at 158 for an hour, and the temp stayed within 1 degree over the hour, which should make it less fermentable...

    Doing is better than reading

    I finally had time to do my first AG batch yesterday. It took my about 7 hours and didn't go anything like I was expecting it to go. I have read a lot about brewing and AG, but it still doesn't prepare you for all the little nuances of actually doing it. It was a great experience. Had to...

    Just me?

    Is it just me, or does everyone like looking at the recipe of what they are drinking while they drink it? :mug:

    Wyeast Propagator Starter

    I'm trying the Propagator pack with a starter for the first time, and I'm trying to figure out how big of a starter I need. If I go by Mr. Malty for a 1.049 OG, I will need 180 b cells. It seems that calc uses Activator packs, so I'm not sure how big of a starter I will need. According to...

    Hello World

    My name is Andy, and I live in MI. I started brewing last Christmas, when my sister got me a Mr. Beer. I brewed with that for a while, and even bought another on clearance. That wasn't enough though. I was already addicted. I had to go out and buy equipment to do regular extract batches...
