So unfortunately I've had to sell all of my equipment. I am currently trying to sell my keezer and all of my kegging equipment, which includes: 7.0 cubic ft Keezer with collar. (2 taps with forward sealing faucets) Johnson Temp Controller 2 5 Gallon Ball Lock Kegs 5 lb Aluminum CO2 tank...

Finally designed a label, and did a wax top. Very happy how it turned out!!!

OK so I made my first label using the Font Over app on my phone. The beer is a Belgian Quad aged on bourbon oak chips and cherries. It came out at 13% abv. Shameless beer plug.... sorry. My question is can anyone tell me why the image is so blurry? I uploaded the photo to the app and added the...

I brewed my first quad a couple weeks ago. OG was 1.110. I started fermentation at 66 degrees and held there until gravity was around 1.032. I took it out of my chamber to bring up to room temp, our house stays around 70-72 degrees. I checked two days ago and it was holding steady around 70...

I tried this beer at the Top of the Hops Beer Fest in Louisville KY about 4 years ago. It was so good I ended up sitting at the Bells booth the majority of the day, it was an unlimited sampling fest too. Anyways, do they still make it? I have not seen this beer since. I'd over to get my hands on...

I'm trying to concentrate on my process and trying to up my efficiency. I've typically been getting 65 - 68% efficiency. I've hit 70 maybe once. I brewed a Wheat beer tonight and tried my hand at a Single decoction mash. I'm going to post my notes here, in hopes to get some constructive...

So I was in the process of removing the lighting/thermostat housing from my Frigidaire mini fridge to fit two kegs. In the process, the thick thermostat "wire" broke off. I plugged the fridge back in and nothing kicked on. Did I just eff up my kegorator? Or is this fixable? It was this...

A few weeks ago a friend and I brewed a Tank 7 clone. It's sitting safely in secondary now. I had an idea to take a gallon of it when we bottle an age it on Chardonnay soaked oak chips and add some Brett. My question is would I add an entire vile of Brett for only one gallon? Feel free to offer...

I brewed a Tank 7 clone two weeks ago. The starting gravity was 1.076 and I'm expecting a 1.020 ish FG. After 2 weeks it is still bubbling away, I checked the gravity 2 days ago and tasted the sample. It was absolutely delicious. A little sweet, but very fruity. I took another sample today...

So the time has come for me to sell what I got. Im trying to get back into school to get my music degree. But before I can I must pay off a debt to a previous school. Getting back to school is more important than brewing at this point. I will list what I am selling. I obviously would much...

So today's the big 30 for me. 3 years ago when I started this hobby, and cellaring beers, I put a bottle of 2006 Old Crustacean Barley Wine away. It was the first beer that I put away to age. Specifically to drink today. Haven't cracked it open yet, but Im itching too. Ill put some notes up...

Just wondering if anyone has tried this years Double Bastard? I gotta bottle of 08 and 09 in the fridge waiting for after dinner. :ban:

Its that time of year again. Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout made its way to southern Ky this week. Did a vertical tasting of 07-08, 08-09, and 09-10. The 07-08 had very little carbonation. Dark Chocolate, Prunes, Raisins, and coffee hit you first. The sweet chocolate flavors definitely...

Went to the local packaging store to get some stout for chili tonight. They had London Pride on sale for $20.00 a case. I've had it once or twice. But for $20.00 a case, I couldn't turn it down. Not a bad beer. It'll be a good "yea I got some beer in the fridge, help yourself" kinda beer...

I planned on bottling my Belgian Ale in Belgian bottles that I have saved, with corks and wire hoods. However, I do not have a corker, and have no way to access one. Is it possible to cork with out a corker? By hand perhaps? That may be a stupid question, but if its not possible, Ill have to...

Has anyone tried this yet? I have a bottle in my fridge right now. Probably gonna drink it tomorrow. Just wanted to know if anyone has tried it yet.

So I have a Belgian Trapist Style ale that has been in secondary since January. I keep going back and forth about either kegging or bottling it in some Belgian bottles, with cork and wire hood. I leave in a week, and will be gone until July 11, so I was thinking about bottling before I left. I...

So I just started my mash for Edworts Haus Pale, and I noticed that my wort chiller has a hole in it. Dont really know how that happened, and I dont have the time to get the stuff to make another one. Any suggestions or tricks to cool 5gal of wort with out a wort chiller? I guess Im gonna...
