    Design Ideas

    Hello, all. I am taking the eBrewing plunge, and come to you humbly soliciting advise, criticism, and help. I keep waffling back and forth between a traditional HLT-based herms and a separate, smaller self-contained hex for my system. Currently it is based on 2 10G coolers and a 15G kettle...

    Is there any reason...

    Not to build a RIMS chamber out of CPVC? Operating temps seem to be within spec for the plastic, it would be a better insulator (less heat loss), and it would certainly seem to be cheaper as a point of entry than stainless or copper...we don't work with particularly high pressure, so that...

    An IPA for your consideration

    I am brewing this today, and if anyone is on between now and when I brew it, I would love any comments to make it a better beer...or to tell me I am smoking crack and why the heck would I use ingredient A in an IPA..... It is a pretty simple recipe, so there is not much that can be...

    Willamette Brown

    Stupid name, good beer. Brewed this one back in March, and it is probably the best beer I have brewed from a recipe I created. Thought I'd post it for any comments or in case someone wants a nice brown ale recipe. Willamette Brown 11-C Northern English Brown Ale Author: jrb Size...

    Blonde Ale

    I am trying to come up with a recipe that will be ready to drink when my wife delivers our third at the end of march or so. I decided that something lower in alcohol and easy on the palate would be best...please comment and critique... Baby Boy Blonde[/size] 6-B Blonde Ale[/size] Author...

    Adding Water Post-Fermentation

    I brewed two beers today, using the partigyle method, and all went pretty darn well. I made a maple porter and a honey brown, and hit my numbers very well for the porter at 5.75G in the fermenter at 1.086. :drunk: For the brown, I lost too much to evaporation and ended up with somewhere around...

    Partigyle Porter/Brown Ale for critique/help

    I am brewing for the 3rd time in 4 weeks (yay, me!) next Saturday and wanted to try a partigyle so I'd have plenty on hand for Christmas time. I decided to vary and scale up a porter recipe I made (and have brewed 2 times successfully) with the addition of maple syrup and follow that with a...

    Pale Ale with leftovers

    I am posting this recipe for comment. It is an american pale ale (or at least that is the style it most closely resembles) made from leftover grains from previous brews and hops available on short notice. Will it work ok, or not? That is the question I hope you all can answer. I am doing FWH...
