I'm making a Belgian Wit, I fermented at 65F for 1 week and just transferred it to the secondary. Should I lower the temperature or leave it around 65? If lower it, to what? Have it then sit 2 weeks right?

This might be a noob question, but where do the calories in non-alcoholic beer come from? I always thought the calories were just from the alcohol, hence why light beer is lower in alcohol AND calories.

Making an oatmeal stout and have quaker oats on hand, can I use those? Are the cracked oats you buy at a brewshop different in any way?

How long can homebrew sit in a C02 pressurized 5gal keg before weird things start happening? Metalic taste, old beer taste, whatever?

SO I've just finished brewing my first lager using the Bavarian Lager yeast, its currently sitting at 50deg and has been so for two days. Any advice on scheduling? How long should I sit it at 50? Should I drop the temperature? When should I transfer to secondary? Should I drop the...

So I bought a Ranco one-stage electronic temperature control and didn't expect that I had to wire it myself. Well I'm dumb and don't know what NC NO or anything else I see inside this thing means... has anyone else ever wired one of these who could explain it to me? Even just an image of yours...

I'm trying to make a beer for someone that will be done by July 27th. (At least bottled by then) is it possible to make a lager that fast or should I make an ale to be safe. Possible turbo schedule for lager: BREW 6/20 PRIMARY 6/30 SECONDARY 7/10 COLD CONDITIONING / LAGERING 7/26...

I want to try cold conditioning an IPA I have in a carboy. When do I do this? How do I do this? How long do I do this? The fermentation temp was 66deg, what temp should I cold condition at?

This is the first time I've kegged so I'm very unsure about the process... So I've got two batches of beer "coconut porter" and "strawberry wheat" which have been sitting in a carboy for 3 weeks. I'm about to add the kegging sugar and keg these two beers. I'm using beersmith recipie...

So I know that you let beer sit in a carboy to ferment and to dry hop and flavor and yatta yatta yatta. But after fermentation has been fully complete and the gravity of the beer is at a final resting point I've got some questions. After the final gravity has been reached what is the point...

I created the starter for an IPA about a week ago, couldn't get around to brew till yesterday. During brewing, I had 2 boil overs, very short, just lost a few floating hops, nothing major. I cooled the wort to 65deg, aerated it and poured it in a carboy to aerate it further. I took a...

Anyone know of a better place/price than this for a "analog temperature regulator"? http://brewgadgets.com/beergadgets/kegging.htm

So in my last few recipies I've been a little lost on rack timing and ageing a beer so here are my thoughts. Correct me and help me answer some questions. Ales by the way. 1st-ary (Glass Carboy Fermentation Temperature) Original fermentation is aggressive and after 3-5 days (usually)...

I'm a poor little homebrewing college student and I'm trying to up my batch size and go all grain. So I have a few questions about creating/buying a larger brewpot. I've heard of people somehow cutting of the top of a keg (<--how would I do that?) and proping it above a stand alone propane...

I made a Honey Lager with California Lager yeast. It sat in the first fermenting carboy for close to a month, should I expect any funny flavors? I usually transfer to a secondary within a couple days of fermenting but I got lazy this time.

I've been collecting the yeast from my secondary and bottling it. As in pouring it into a sanitized bottle and capping it. After that I label it and stick it in a refrigerator. Is that an okay long term storage method?

So I made a yeast starter Feb 7th (22 days ago) and never got around to brewing the batch. I amd thinking that I won't be getting to it for quite a while. How long can a yeast starter sit before things start going wrong? Can a starter sit forever? I'm thinking about just pouring off the...
