Took my 10 gallon setup to a friend's house on Sunday, 10gl cooler, 2 stainless pots, rims, pumps, brew panel. This was supposed to be dog and pony show for his SWMBO. Mashed, boiled, and into fermentor. Got paged from work and had to leave. I repeatedly made by friend swear he'd clean...

The SWMBO wants a constant supply of this in the keggerator, not only because it's what she likes to drink, but also because it's what her friends ask for when they come over to spend the day gossiping as they sunbathe by the pool in summertime; actually the reason I formulated this beer towards...

Anybody else watch this? 43 minutes long. I originally watched it in one of the Discovery Network's channels, don't remember which one, but just found it online. http://topdocumentaryfilms.com/how-beer-saved-the-world/

I don't know how complete this is, but I thought it was pretty impressive :D I printed this out and started to write a green check or red x over the styles I like/dislike as I try at least one sample of each. The goal is to know out 2 or 3 each week. :rockin: Enjoy :mug: PS: the image is...

EDIT: I posted this in the wrong forum by accident. It was meant for the Electric Brewing forum. Please move it accordingly. Thanks. Forget about the monetary part of it, is there any benefit of running 4 elements in a series + parallel setup as shown in B instead of the usual 1 element...

Hi everyone. I picked up a couple of these pots ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000VXKJJ8/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20 ) and a march pump, which will be delivered in by this Friday. Eventually it'll all be part of an automated electric 15gl herms/rims. Can someone point me in the...

Just got my mill in and did a test grind without any mods to it. This is what the ground grain looks like. What do you think? Good/Bad? Edit: Picture not showing. Working on it. Edit 2: There it is! But this version of it looks a little better...

I'm thinking on doing an experiment and would like to enlist people in the greater Boston area to help. The idea is to make 5, maybe 10, 1 gallon batches of the same brew, and pitch each batch differently, from grossly under pitching to grossly over pitching. This would have to be done a...

Hi guys, Planning on brewing this tomorrow. I put this recipe together to try and match SWMBO's taste for beer. She want's low bitterness, a tad on the sweeter side and a touch of fruit. Not fruity, just a hint of fruit (I'm going to drink it too, so it'll have to be just a bit in the fruit...

I upgraded my inground pool pump and have the old one around. I was thinking of eventually use it to make a solar heater for the pool, but the neighbor cut down the trees in his backyard that used to shade my pool in the afternoons, so I will not need the heater anymore. Can anyone think of...

My goal is for an English IPA, medium bitterness, but with lots of hop aroma, towards the darker side of the scale for that style (I'd like to have a nice, deep copper color to it). Batch: 5.5gl Est boil: 7.89gl Est OG: 1.070 IBUs: 50 Color: 12.8 SRM Est ABV: 6.7% 12lbs Maris Otter 2lbs...

I'm in the process of building my first eBrew system. And while browsing through my junk I found a few spare electric stove top elements (220V) hanging around in a box. Has anyone ever tried using one of those INSIDE the kettle? I'm thinking that the long coil surface should make for a...

Has anyone converted an upright freezer so that it can sit on it's side (back)? I know the compressor will have to be remounted somehow, just wanted to know if anyone had done this before and if so how successful it was. Chest freezers in the area are hard to come by at the right size for a...
