Hey All - I'm an experienced homebrewer and I have about 20 years of beer brewing behind me. I made my first hard cider about 6 weeks ago, and I realized that I never took my O.G. I kind of got out of the habit as I am pretty good at hitting my targets with beer and well, I just plain...

Hey All, So last night I started to brew a Dunkelweizen, and all was going well as normal during the mash. I was finishing up warming up my sparge water in my boil kettle and I noticed that the sight tube on my kettle was actually starting to warp due to the heat. This is where I made...

After years of having my grains milled at my LHBS, I finally bought a Barley Crusher, and am now planning out my bulk grain inventory. I have settled on 2-row, Marris Otter, and Wheat as my base grains and all will be in a 50lb bag. I know that the grains need to be kept in a cool and dry...

I think i already know the answer to this, but I need to make sure before i proceed. What is the effect of only kegging 2.5 gal of brew in a 5 gal keg? Should I make any adjustments to the Co2?

I did my first All Grain recipe this weekend and much to my wife's dismay, it did not curb my addiction to brewing! Although, I did run into a problem that I would like some suggestions for in the future. I'm pretty sure that I know why my OG was low. I had a half a$$ed design for a false...

So I'm walking through Home Depot the other day, and I run into a big stack of those bright orange Igloo Drink Coolers that are great for a Mash/Lauter Tun for only $16.99! The guy in the orange apron said that they pulled them off the shelf and they were left over from last year, and they...

Alright, so I've learned a tremendous amount from reading the various posts here on HomeBreTalk.com, and now I'm in need of some help. This past Saturday, I brewed my first Lager after completing about a dozen batches of ales. I brewed the Foster's Clone from Clone Brews, and everything during...
