It's been on gas for a couple days at 30psi. I'm gonna turn the pressure down when I get home and taste it again. It tasted just fine warm. I've just never seen this before. Odly enough it was not a dark grain bill or a lot of hops. It's merely a rye blonde ale with about an ounce or so of...

Ya I just held my phone really close to the carboy and hit focus until it was clear as possible. Interestingly enough the beer tasted just fine. If anything it didn't have as much of a kolschy yeast character. I mean it's there just a bit more subtle. Hmmm seems like few others have had this...

Hey everyone! I just finished kegging a Rye blonde made with washed 2556 kolsch yeast. The krausen has a purple ring around it. Is it some type of infection? So far the beer smells just fine. Going to sample some soon. What do you think?

Thanks! The long edge faces the south. I decided to plant a 1 row of 4. :rockin: I goofed. I did not realize a row in front of another so close would block the light causing the back row to grow poorly. Good heads up.

Hi everyone. First time hop grower and I finally have my raised bed ready with good soil, fertilizer, etc. I have 6 cascade rhizomes right now. All I have to do is install a trellis. My question is this. How many rhizomes can I fit in a 4 x 8 x 1 raised bed? I've thought of 4 different...

Thanks everybody. It seems like the general consensus is smashing the fruit with a sanitized tool through a funnel with an opening wide enough that can fit into the carboy. Sounds a whole lot better then what I did:smack:

Last night I added 6lb of frozen berry medley(blueberry, rasberry, and blackberry) to an american wheat beer through the neck of my 6.5 gal carboy. I had a REALLY hard time doing this. My funnel was too small and for some reason I never thought about how I would add the fruit until I was trying...

Hey everyone so far the wort tastes great and I omitted the baking soda from the profile. Unfortunately I didn't get the chance to check pH as I forgot too while brewing. Oops. I can say this though. Lately my system has jumped from 70% to 75% because of biermunchers hybrid fly sparge technique...

Thank you for your responses. Both were very informative and lead me to make up 1 gallon worth of the above water profile in order to drink some and see how I feel about the taste before brewing with it. .4g gypsum, .1g calcium chloride, .1g Epsom salt, .05 baking soda. which comes out to...

Hey everyone, just been getting use to the water chemistry aspect of brewing. I read the primer and so far my brews have been going quite well following the instructions on the primer. I have a R/O system so I use pure R/O and build the water with mineral additions. So I've typically been...

+ 5 from me so that's 25239

Ya I wanted to go that route and just unscrew the shelving for the same purpose of using the fridge as a normal fridge at some other point if i felt the need. Unfortunately the dar440bl model I received did not come with screws. They literally glued the shelving to the door and the seal depends...

Okay so I ended up cutting out pieces of the shelving with a dremel in order to fit the kegs and it worked just fine! Ok for starters I put the first keg in on the right side and then I put the second keg in on the left side. Why is this important? Because I left a notch of the shelving on the...

Seems like you and I are in the same boat dinertime. So I have all my parts(kegs, co2 tank, lines, tower, etc) and I installed the tower. The door hinge is on the right side when you look at the fridge. The first keg fits in fine on the left side but the right keg obviously doesn't fit because...

Hey everyone thanks for all the information on the danby kegerator conversion. I have one question though. I just received my dar440l off of walmart and I'm have ONE problem. When I peel the inner door seal back there are no screws. It looks like the shelving is glued on instead. Did danby...

Just want to say I've brewed this 3 times so far and I will continue to brew it on the regular. My friends and I love it.

Hi fellow brewers I've been lurking these forums for the past few months and finally decided to sign up. I'm still quite new to brewing but I'm giving it my best shot with the ewuipment I have. Right now I have Edworts bavarian hefewiezen in my primary at day 5 and I just made his Apfelwien...
