This is a crazy question I know. I brewed an east coast IPA. OG at 1.070 - FG at 1.021 after 7 days. Cold crashed at 40 degrees for 2 days. Gelatin fined yesterday also at 40 degrees. Today took a look to see clarity and the air lock is bubbling away like it's started fermentation again, and...

H.S.T. fans only. Got to wonder if it's weird enough now?

I just built a Keezer and I am trying to determine line length. Previously I had a pick-neck spout that I had 5 feet and I used around 10 PSI at 38 degrees, but it had more head than I liked even when turning the pressure down to serve. I have read 10 ft but I also read to use this equation...

My kegerator took a dive on me so I decided to build a Keezer. Here's my build thus far. Found this 2010 10 cubic foot frigidaire for $50.00 on Facebook Market. Heck yea! Started off by slapping a 2 X 10 collar on this puppy about $20.00 bucks from lows. locktite construction glue and...

I found Motts on sell at Publix buy one get one free so I bought 5 gallons of juice. I then swung by the brew store and picked up cider yeast went home and put it in a bucket. I racked it after fermentation about 10 days. It's clear and tasty a little dry not like Apfelwein but still a little...

I brewed some beer a while back, put it in the keg like 10 days ago, went to get a beer and only a drop came out. I checked the co2 tank and it is 3/4 full, made sure the pressure was correct it is on 12psi like I always keep it. Turned off the flow of CO2 and relieved the pressure, opened the...

I had a friend of mine give me a 50 LB sack of crimped barley. I am in the process of trying to malt some now. I have looked online trying to see if there is any thing I need to do other than the regular process to malt crimped barley, and that is when I found this link...

Just made my first batch of mead. I had 2lbs of honey from Oklahoma sitting in the cabinet. I brought a half gallon of water to boil put in the honey, 3tbs of pure vanilla extract, and 1tbs of cinnamon, and about one cup of crushed black berries. I put it in a gallon carboy cooled it in the sink...

Okay, here we go. Should I force carbonate, my keg or shouldn't I? If so, what is the best process? I want to carbonate, and drink this amazing A.P.A. I brewed quickly. However, I don't want to loose quality. My local home brew store told me to set the regulator using a carbonation chart in...

O.K. I got a five gallon home brew keg, and a mini fridge. What tempter should I keep my fridge? What is the coldest I can keep it? The co2 will be inside the fridge with the keg also. Also, how many psi's should I keep co2 at?

I want a beer with a lot of alcohol in it. I am going to a party for myself and want to bring it to the party for my friends. They are not home brew drinkers, so I would like something that looks like an APA with a smooth taste. Any suggestions? :tank:
