Anyone have any experience with using a E-Kettle and using canned pumpkin in the recipe? I have a Camco 5500w ULWD element, but im afraid of the pumpkin just sticking to the bottom of the pot and carmelizing/burning as I doubt my bag will keep mashed pumpkin in the mash. Do you think it...

I want to do a 10 gallon batch of a big lager (Dopplebock OG = 1.090). MrMatly says I'll need a 8L starter for this. I figure if I'm going to use two gallons and the timeframe to start that, I might as well create a smaller 5 gallon (Light American Premium = 1.052 OG) lager and use that yeast...

Does anyone know what kind of tap this is?

Well. I guess I'm going to start kegging my beer. While perusing Craigslist for an old fridge to store bottles/yeast/hops and to lager in, i found this beauty. It's an old Perlick 3 tap keg fridge. It came with all the tap hoses, co2, and kegging lines. It is however, a mess on the...

My wife is a huge fan of Rooibos tea with some honey. Her birthday is in april, and I'm going to make her a batch of Rooibos Red Ale. For anyone who doesn't know, Rooibos tea is an African red tea, and has a grassy/earthy flavor that can exhibit some spice notes if steeped long enough...

Just fermented 5 gallons of some local upstate NY cider. The cider was freshly pressed, and UV pasturized. I used Red Star champagne yeast, and the FG just hit 1.000. I want to have a carbonated, yet sweet apple cider. For the Limeaid I made, I used Truvia to sweeten the beverage and...
