Haven't used grain since BC (before celiac). Replaced my grain mill and built a new cabinet this weekend. Still plan to enclose the sides and add a door, but it's motorized and functional. Still need to replace my mash tun (cooler) but now I'm ready to buy some grains.

I'm going to ferment some fresh pressed Apple cider and want to kill off any wild yeast. Is there any reason I shouldn't add the crushed tablets before the cider has warmed to room temperature? Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

I made a 1 gallon batch which turned out excellent (4 lbs honey, 1 sliced orange, 20 raisons, D47 yeast). I made another 1 gallon batch which had very little flavor (3 lbs of honey, EC1118 yeast). Clearly this was less honey and a drier mead, not a favorite of most that have tried it. I'd...

Hope this is not a dumb question but I don't understand back sweetening. By that I mean if the mead has fermented to completion, no more hydrometer changes, why doesn't it restart fermenting if I add more sugar?

Made a recipe called peach brandy. Since it's not distilled I know it's technically a wine. Recipe: 2 gal peaches 4 gal warm water Juice of 8 lemons 20 lbs sugar 2 pkgs Lalvin D47 Fermented 7 days then added 6 lbs raisins Left for 3 weeks I could not take a starting gravity since I did not...

I'm looking to brew a GF Pumpkin ale. I saw a recipe on the forum (I can't recall the OP) as follows: 6 lbs Sorghum Syrup (60 min) 1 lb 3 oz. Sorghum, roasted (20 SRM) 2.1 oz East Kent Goldings, pellet 4.5% (60 min) 32 oz Pumpkin Puree (30 min) 32 oz Pumpkin Pie Filling (30 min) 1 tsp...

Anyone tried this kit? Kit needs: 1 lb roasted chestnuts (not included), 6 lb sorghum, 1 lb brown rice syrup, 2oz cascade @60, Windsor ale yeast. Steep chestnuts @ 155F for 25 minutes. Can you get much from a 25 minute steep with chestnuts?

Not a brewing thread, but thought it might be of interest. I'm on a business trip and found a selection of the Harvester GF beers. They are in 22oz bottles and I picked up one of each, Dark Ale, Pale Ale, Red Ale, and IPA 1&2. I tried the Dark Ale last night and thought it was excellent...

A local brew pub makes a GF beer using sorghum, quinoa, and honey (and no hops). This is a really good beer, light color, slightly sweet. I talked to the brewer and he told be he adds the quinoa to the boil, along with sorghum, honey is at flameout. Anyway, was curious if anyone has tried...

Any difference in the syrup vs the solids? I have both. Clearly the syrup is brown where the solids are white.

I'm planning an IPA, anyone familiar with falconers flight 7Cs hops? How have you used them? All at 60 min, split throughout the boil? General thoughts on this hop in an IPA.

Has anyone added GF Ingredients for Beersmith? I've found the link creaked by dkershner which was very helpful: http://brew.dkershner.com/gf-ingredients-for-beersmith/ I'm now looking for grain type ingredients such as: Quinoa, Millet, Teff, etc. Anyone added these? Thanks!

How do you make a GF starter? I'm familiar with using DME but now that I'm brewing GF I'm not sure what to use? Thanks

I recently found out I had Celiac so I am converting from a long time all grain brewer to GF brewing. I got a basic Pale Ale kit from Austin Homebrew as a Christmas gift and brewed it today. 6lbs Briess White Sorghum (3lbs @ 60min, 3lbs @ flameout) 1oz Northern Brewer @ 60min 1oz Cluster @...
