    Combating Fruit Acidity

    I brewed a blackberry wheat a few weeks back. Transferred to the secondary on top of a few pounds of blackberries after about 8 days in primary. tasted it and it was right on point. However, I was then suddenly called out of town while it was in the secondary. Instead of it being on for 10-12...

    Fermentation not subsiding

    I brewed a standard american wheat last Friday (10 days ago). Fermentation started after about 30 hours, and has been going solid since. There is still about an inch of krausen sitting on top of the beer in the fermenter and the airlock is still bubbling at a decent rate. I'm used to beers...

    Instructions on force carbing?

    I've kegged two batches now, and have always used priming sugar to do it. Not a big fan of the sediment, so I'd like to move to force carbing.

I started the siphon again and hoped that I didn't kill the beer by...

    Homebrew to commercial keg connections?

    I finally bouught a kegerator and a couple corny kegs and am beginning to get into the process of kegging my beer. I bought a single tap kegerator (I'm already regretting not springing for the dual tap), that is currently set up for commercial kegging. Before I cut off the end of the tubing to...

    Secondary Ferment Carboy Size

    I have a 6.5 Gallon that I use for primary fermentation, and a 5 gallon that has served me well for secondary fermentation. However, for the next batch that I'm planning, I was going to add a few pounds of blackberries to the beer in the secondary fermenter. Will this cause a problem in a 5...
