So, I've started small and have the 2.5 gal corny keg with ball lock, picnic style tap & the pocket c02 injector for serving. The 1st couple days were ok, had 2 pints, both with good head, now I'm starting to lose head and it's tasting a little flat? Am I doing something wrong? I left the...

Got my Midwest order yesterday. 5 gallon Pumpkin Extract kit. Planning on using RO water or Spring, along with 2 cans of Pumpkin Puree. 1 question I had was should I leave all the pumpkin goop in the fermenter, or drain it off when I finish the boil ? Or does it matter either way ...

For the past several batches I've been in a terrible slump, 1. Overconfident - Screwed up an IPA by racking/bottling to early. 2. Idiocy - Went to bottle a brown ale only to realize I only had 1 ounce of corn sugar, so I added table sugar to make up for it. Beer is awful. Yesterday I did...

I decided to uncap and drain about 30 or so bottles of a 3 gal Brown ale brewed on 2-23. I screwed up and used 5 ounces of sugar instead of 3. I had bottle cap explosions in March (made a mess in the cabinet), I even chilled them all down and pried off a little pressure that same week...

Or am I being a cheapskate ?? A ticket to the event comes with a commemorative Pilsner glass and 10 4-ounce tastings. Additional tastings may be purchased. Or should I just spend $5 to get in? $25 seems steep for a glass & 10 four ounce tastings.......... The Gnarly Hops and...
