Any progress on this? I have some friends wanting some GF beer. Thanks!

I recently moved my stout from it's primary to the secondary and popped in 3 vanilla beans. How long should I let it sit before I keg it? I was guessing about a week. I'm looking for a good character of vanilla but not overwhelming. Thanks -Kian

I think the average is 10 days if you don't shake it. You could technically drink it now if flat beer was your thing ;)

I had some friends ask me to make them a Mango Cider, and after looking through the recipes section I think I have a pretty good idea of what I want to do. 4 Gallons of Apple Juice 1 Gallon Mango Juice 2 Cups of Honey Add Mangoes to the secondary What I've been trying to figure out is...

Thanks for the quick answer. I did an old extract brew like that and nothing happened, but this one is special so I wanted to make sure. Cheers

I searched the forums but couldn't find any answer that I wanted exactly. I'm brewing a Hoegaarden style on Saturday and I'm not planning on using a secondary. As of right now I only have one carboy that's currently full. Should I invest in a second carboy or just use my bucket for the...

That is seriously one of my favorites, must've been a bad bottle

Ok sweet It's for my brother's 21st and I didn't want to mess it up Thanks

I'm pitching a Hoegaarden clone on Saturday and I realized I tossed 4 oz too much of flaked oat in my grain bag out of a 20 oz partial mash recipe boosting the total grains I have to 24 oz. I don't know enough about the whole process to know what kind of effects this is going to have on the...

Do all the same rules apply if you're bottling instead of kegging?

Hydrometer broke when I was sanitizing, so no OG and my LHBS is closed on Wednesdays, so no FG... It was a little too thick for me, I dry hopped it too. Thanks for the reassurance, I see the freak out posts up all the time and I was trying not to add to it, but not having any local support...

I did my first all grain last Wednesday (7.7.7 IPA) and just transferred from primary to secondary. I tasted it and it wasn't quite where I wanted it, and I noticed that it was really short as far as volume goes. I happened to have some purified water on hand and figured that adding it would...

Anyone in Santa Barbara know of a good LHBS? the most local it gets that I have found have been at least a half hour away, and I don't like that... :mad: Cheers -K:tank:

Can I cut open the pack and use that yeast to make a starter or do I have to get more? This is the first time I bought wyeast and I'm not sure how to use all that ish, I used dehydrated before.... thanks. Follow up about the bottles too: Which is preferable at this time for these bottles (or...

So I just got a shipment from Hoptech and I had one concern. the Wyeast I got was surrounded by cool packs but when it arrived they were all kinda warm, it's in the fridge now and isn't doing anything but chill, just wanted to make sure that it was still pitchable (quell my fears even though I'm...

Thanks, I'll give those a try

Has anyone had any experience with adding coffee to a secondary? I'm making a stout and would like some coffee flavor, so here's my plan: cold brew 1L of coffee w. boiled & cooled water for about 3-7 days and just adding that L of liquid (wo the grouds) when I move to the secondary. Thoughts or...

it was an all extract Amber ale, really hopsy. I accidentally left the hops from the wort in the primary, and didn't move it to a secondary.

I cracked a couple of my first batch with some of my friends yesterday, and holy mother of God it was actually good! One of my friends, whose opinion I trust, said that it was in his top 5 favorite beers (now if he was trying to butter me up to get more hb or not is debatable). I've already...
