Fellas, Brewed this tonight and I will be updating this thread until it is ready to drink. Here is a recipe that was inspired by several porter recipes here on Home brew Talk, but added my own twists and ideas as I went along. Here is what I came up with: Brew Name: Mike's...

Fellas, So I finally decided to brew something I have never done before and decided on a dark Porter. I looked at probably hundreds of recipes all over online (including here) and started writing down the most common ingredients and eventually I came up with my own recipe and a few...

Fellas, Finally experienced my first exploding bottles the other night and then again tonight. I was home on my lunch break and it was about 3:00am when I heard what sounded like a gunshot in the other end of my house. I grabbed the ol' pistola and headed over to take a look. At first...

My Bavarian Hefeweizen is ready to bottle today. I am not sure if different recipes call for different amounts of sugar, but I know my most recent Triple Hoped Ale required 3.0oz. Here is my recipe and I would like to know how much sugar yall think I should use. Thanks Bavarian Hefeweizen...

Fellas, In the last three batches, I feel that I have learned a ton. I have educated myself on the hop varities, yeast strains, sanitization practices and everything else I could read about. So after making 3 batches, I felt that it was time to just make something up with stuff I had...

Fellas, I made my very first batch on Jan 3rd (William's Triple Hopped Ale Kit #K35). 17 days later and only 4 more days to go, I decided to take a hydrometer reading. The beer was very clear of sediment when I used the wine thief to remove a bit out of the carboy. It was a beautiful...

Fellas, I have searched high and low and have not been able to find a good solid recipe to clone Schofferhofer's Grapefruit Hefeweizen beer. I did find one on beersmith's website but it is all grain and I did not see any type of grapefruit ingredient. Here's the scoop on how and what I...

Fellas, Being the type of guy that I am, I bought a bunch of stuff from a brew store before researching anything...obvious total rookie mistake. However, instead of letting it sit and gather dust, tell me what I could make with what I have lying around. Here is what I've got...would...

Fellas, Yesterday I checked I posted up a little update about my first batch. Before I left for dinner last night, I was getting a bubble about every 5-10 seconds in the airlock. Water was clear and everything looked great. Woke up this morning and bubbles are coming about every...

Fellas, I joined here on New Years Day in hopes that I could use this forum and other's experiences to guide me through. Well today was my very first batch ever with real equipment. Up to this point I had made several Mr. Beer batches, but holy crap there is absolutely no comparison at...
