Hey Brewers, I'm planning a red ale for my next brew, and was curious what grains I could use in my infusion mash to achieve a very pronounced red color, I'll be using a gold LME base. Thanks again.

Hey Brewers, I'm currently fermenting 2.5 Gal. of Oktoberfest Style Lager....My concern as I watch the sediment build up in my Mr. Beer keg it looks to be clinging to the sides a little bit, with the sediment level reaching right at the bottom of the bottling spout. I'm using Saflager...

Hey Brewers, I have a couple quick questions on bottling for those who have time to answer them! 1. I plan on keeping a few bottles of every batch until my Oktoberfest party. I'll be using 1 liter plastic (Mr. Beer) bottles, I've reused these twice already, I'm curious if the beer...

Hey Brewers, Thought I'd post a pic of the 1st brew of my very own recipe..."Introducing Yankee Duck APA!" Thanks to everyone who helped me on HBT! Your hand in making this is much appreciated!!!!!:mug:

Hey Brewers, I'm making plans to have my own October Fest in my yard, been saving a few liters of beer from all my batches (yes, it's harder than you think!) & have done some research on October Fest beers. They say traditional OF beer is made in March & drank during the festival....so...

Hey Brewers, I got another simple question, if anyone has time to chime in? I currently store my perishables (i.e: Dry yeast, raw grains, hops, LME) in my bottom fridge, will this do for proper storage for stuff sitting 2-3 weeks maybe a few longer? Thanks again!!!!

Hey Brewers. I was yacking over a home brew with my buddy and when i was trying my best to explain priming with corn sugar he asked if corn syrup would work, Would that actually work? What kind of impact would it have? Thanks again! Under Construction: Amsterduck Lager Hindu...

Hey Brewers, I'm working with a limited amount of equipment & I currently do not have a priming bucket. So I've been forced to use raw (undiluted) corn sugar to prime individual bottles, which seems to be leaving sediment. Does anyone know how to make priming solution that i could mix...

Hey Brewers, I have been working on my APA, It's been in the ferm for about 3-4 days, It's a 2 gal. batch that has a nice pale color (from what I can see) but still looks a bit cloudy, I added a 1/2tsp of Irish moss (@15) Is it to late to add enough water to turn it to a 2.5 batch...

Hey Brewers, To document my first recipe I was wanting to design a "Score Card" of sorts so my drinking buddies can rate my brew, so when I get deeper into new recipes I can refer back and see how that specific recipe went over & maybe alter it based on it's rating. Can I get some input...

Hey Brewers, After completing my first APA recipe I was debating the next crack I'm going to take at a recipe, and my wives love for Dutch beers came to mind. I'd like to put something together with that profile, I've noticed many of the Dutch styles, even the lesser name ones we had in...

Hey Brewers, Quick question.....I've got some Czech Saaz hops laying around, are they strictly a pilsner & lager hop, or could they be added to other styles? If so, what styles?

Hey Brewers, I just bottled a batch of pale that I was experimenting with to learn more of the process, either way i noticed some trace amounts of hops floating about. The only thing i did was add hop pellets to my batch. Is this common? Did I go about it wrong? and how can i prevent this...
