Hey all, I just got a kegging system set up and am about to test it with a cider. Since I'm not bottling I wanted to try to package it a bit on the sweeter side (maybe 1.010, depending on taste). I've looked through lots of threads over the last week and havn't found a clear answer to my...

Hey everyone, I recently had my first "Red IPA" / IRA (the only one i've ever seen at any liqour store around here), and was absolutely blown away by the malt profile of it. Generally I'm not a fan of malty IPAs, and much prefer a light, clean malt profile that doesn't get in the way of the...

Hey all, So I decided - in light of the approaching holiday season - to do a little experimentation with throwing a little bit of "Christmas" into a regular, easy to drink pale ale. I'm only brewing one gallon, using this recipe...

Hey guys, I just brewed a Black IPA (1 gallon) and I will be dry-hopping it (my first attempt at dry-hopping), and I have a couple of questions about it. 1) I will be dry-hopping in primary (no secondary), and the recipe says to dry-hop at 7 days... most people say to dry-hop after atleast...

Hey everyone, I'm brewing my third batch of beer, and decided to experiment with adding fruit to it, so this is a first for me. I am brewing 1 gallon of Peach Cobbler Ale, and the recipe calls for adding 2 ripe peaches (halved, peeled, and pitted) to the wort at flame-out, letting the peach...

Hey everyone, I am brewing Brooklyn Brew Shop's Peach Cobbler Ale (1 gallon), which calls for adding 2 ripe peaches (peeled, halved, and pitted) at the end of the boil, letting them steep in the hot wort for 20 minutes, and then removing them before cooling the wort. Now comes my...

Hey everyone, i know this has probably been asked 1000 times on here and answered just as many times, so i apologize in advance. So i just completed my first brew last night (Brooklyn Brew Shop's 1 gallon Everyday IPA), which i think went pretty well. I woke up this morning to what seems to...

Hey everyone, I'm new here, and to home brewing in general. I've done plenty of reading and research before I decided to go ahead with my first batch, so I am somewhat familiar with the process, etc... I don't know how many people are familiar with the Brooklyn Brewshop Brew Kits, but for...
