So on Friday the 28th of February, I brewed up another batch of my Oktoberfest for October. I calculated an estimated OG of 1.070, the actual OG was 1.072. I cooled the beer to 75F via wort chiller and then pitched a vial of WLP820. I then moved the fermenter to my cellar which was about 44F...

I am looking for a hop that has a distinct piney aroma to it.From what I have read, Zythos has a slight pine aroma but I'm not sure if maybe the person who wrote that info thought it was only slight or if it really has a more "distinct" piney aroma. Anyone have any suggestions?

I currently have all the equipment that you would use in your average 10 gallon cylindrical mashtun, this includes a braided hose as the filter. My question is, would it be fine if i used a cylindrical cooler setup for a rectangular cooler?

So I just moved about 60 bottles of beer to my fruit cellar after having been sittin at about 65F for 5 days. I tried one today(same day i moved it) and it is flat. I am worried that for whatever reason, the yeast is dead and not carbonating anything or something else went wrong. i used 4.5oz...

So over the past weeks I have been sampling my beer to see how the flavour is. I really liked what I achieved but I wanted to dry hop a small amount of fuggle and a smaler amount of millenium to give it an earthy aroma. Well Now after tasting it I think i preferred it without the dry hopping. It...

I'm trying to replicate Brew Canada Red Beer extract beer kit that I bought before. I was wondering if anyone here had tried it or know of the build to replicate it.

I just finished my first all grain batch and cooled it down to about 75F before pitching. the Og was about 1.056 and i used White Labs Yorkshire Square yeast. I wanted to check on it this morning cuz I'm always paranoid when I make a brew I'm excited for. It was fizzing a lot like a can of pepsi...

So have only done experiments with all extract kits (coopers, morgans,etc) by adding hops or specialty grains or what have you. It has given me good insight into the practice and I think I am ready to attempt an all grain session. I recently did a trial run for an autumn oak ale and am waiting...

I have read over the forums and seen that the majority of people prefer to keep their batch in the primary for about a month. I had planned on racking my beer onto some scotch soaked oak chips/cubes and dry hop some fuggle and millenium hops as well. Should i rack to secondary before 1 month's...

Ok so I'm new here so apologies for re posting this if it already exists. I have an autumn oak ale that is in primary right now, in about 10 or so days I'm going to transfer to secondary over scotch soaked oak chips/cubes combo and dry hop with fuggle and millenium. That will sit for about 2...
