I was brewing a Czech pils yesterday with the grainfather. When I attempted to pump wort through the chiller, I discovered the pump would not turn on. Upon inspecting the controller, I learned that the heating element cord had melted where it plugs in to the controller. I am now unable to...

I saw a teaser pic from Blichmann at the NHC 2017 indicating they are finally coming out with a glycol cooling coil / insulating jacket for their conicals. I was just about to start punching holes in the lid to add one from stainless brewing when I saw this. I think I'll wait until fall to see...

Just read this from beer advocate. I was just at the brewery and fell in love with it. After seeing how successful it was, i cannot believe they would be so greedy to sell out like that! At least AB can't buy my home brewery.

I wanted to post this in the DIY section of the forum, but I was told by the app that I did not have permission to do so..... I finally got around to motorizing my two roller monster mill. No more squatting over a bucket with a power drill! I started out by building a cart frame out of...

I have a stainless conical that is starting to get a healthy buildup of beerstone. I clean it each time with oxyclean and then sanitize with iodophor before filling. This process has not prevented the problem. I have also used bar keepers friend to no avail. Should I try PBW? Any other secret...

I live in Baltimore City. As most of you know, Monday night was rough here. I could see fire out my window and smell smoke in my house as I sat on my couch shaking - holding a 357. The following morning around 9am, I went outside to see if I still had a vehicle and saw that they were still...

Hi All, I just brewed the berliner weisse recipe from American Sour Beers. I pitched a large lacto brevis starter last night and it is bubbling away more than I expected in my ferm chamber today at 95 deg. I plan on pitching brett brux as the primary yeast. Its out of style, but i like...

I love the taste of English beers like Sam Smith and Theakston's Old Peculier. One of the things I like most about them is the buttery aftertaste they have. Am I right in attributing this to diacetyl or is that flavor from the malt forward profile of the beer? I just did a BYO Old Peculier...
