    Developing off flavour, possibly an infection

    By the way I use light carbonation, I like more English like ales, also everything is all grain with fly sparge. And about the off flavour, I can't describe it well... it is something that I know it shouldn't be there. I've tried my brother and father to try it to tell me what does it taste...

    Developing off flavour, possibly an infection

    I have been brewing for some time now but I had to stop completely for 8 months because temporarily I moved to an apartment, now I am back to a house so I want to start again. Before moving I did three batches to have homebrew in my apartment...the thing is all the three ones started...

    what to do w/ the bottom of the barrel?

    Yeast washing, its quite easy and you can save a lot of money.

    Another infection thread...

    The gushers got 6 weeks in bottle plus 6 days in the fridge. Also when served in a glass you can see small white dots and strings, not creamy white as yeast but really white as snow.

    Is my Beer Ruined?

    This is exactly what beer smith recommends, transfer to secondary when you still have some gravity points to go.

    The dry hopping bag was added 5 seconds before the picture was taken. Also I used very little priming sugar since I was brewing an English stout, less than 3 oz (85 g), and I left it in the primary for 24 days.

    Another infection thread...

    I had aninfection in my last batch, which I noticed only after weeks in bottle (now my stout is almost undrinkable and it gushes), the thing is I didn't do anything special between this batch and the last one, now when I opened the fermenter to do dry hopping I found that the smell is a bit off...

    5 Day Sweet Country Cider

    I made this, but I re used s-04 from a beer batch. Everything went very well until the bottling, I was a bit scared of bottle bombs since it-s summer here, so I just wait 14 hours from bottling to pasteurisation. The result: almost completely flat cider, it feels when you leave a soda bottle...

    Drunken Emu's Mississippi River Water (Hard Tea)

    Is it necessary to boil all the water you are using? or can I just filter the last 3 gallons?

    My first REAL infection

    7 weeks ago I bottled a brown ale, I started drinking it at 17 days of bottled(I dry hopped it so I wanted to drink it fresh)... and between week 4 and 6 the beer started gushing, and it became progressively sour... now every week after that it becomes more and more sour and it gushes every time...

    I just brewed this :) I used lemon verbena too because I have a huge plant in my backyard.

    5 Day Sweet Country Cider

    I am going to do this next week. One question, if I buy apples and I do the press, do I need to pasteurize it? or just peeling the apples and washing them is enough?

    Twin IPAs, fermented separately with two different yeast strains

    I usually brew with US-05 or S-04 and the English yeast needs lower temperatures to be fine, the US-05 doesn't ferment good in the lower side of the spectrum unlike the S-04 but in the medium to medium-high side of the spectrum the US-05 does it great unlike the S-04 which I'd describe just as...

    Buying homebrews/Starting a brewery

    1) Yes 2) If I can sample it before buying it then only taste. 3) If it is as good as good as a commercial craft brew then the same price 4) Nothing but laws on this side of the world are a bit different

    The Walking dead

    The story of the comic is very different, it feels almost like a parallel universe using some common characters and inventing a few others. I like it because I can't predict what will happen in the show this way but at the same this make it harder to compare the characters(comic vs show)...

    My ghetto cold crash/swamp cooler

    It's just a trash can with bags covering the lid because it was dirty... :D
