Sad to see another original brewery selling out their majority share. Hopefully they will keep brewing fine beers. I heard this will be the last year for CBS though. https://fox17online.com/2019/08/29/report-founders-brewing-majority-stake-being-sold-to-spanish-company/

Have you seen this new bottle filler. Supposed to work better than a beer gun, less foam, and it is cheaper too. I saw someone testing it out on Instagram and thought I’d share it with the forum. I’m tempted to give it a try. http://boel.company/product/itap/

I harvested some Bells yeast out of the latest batch of Oberon. I made a 0.25L starter and then stepped up to 1.75L starter and poured off 0.5L to save for another batch. Everything seemed to go well and my current beer fermented ok from 1.067 to 1.015. Anyway the 0.5L sample in the fridge is in...

Picked up a 6 pk today. Last year's attempts did not go well for my 2 Hearted clone. Planning to give it more time this year and use fresher yeast.

I am planning to brew a Belgian Quad and need about 380 billion cells. I only have a 2L flask. I do have a stirplate as well. I have read a few different write ups and referenced a couple different charts. But the info seems to be conflicting. I will be starting from a new vial of wlp530.

I've just been analyzing my process as I have a year of brewing under my belt. When you mash out, at say 170F, do you leave the grain and bag in the pot as you raise the temp of the wort to the desired mash out temp? I have not been. I pull the bag at the end of he mash, via a pulley, and start...

I recently harvested and washed my first batch of yeast. I decided to use some yeast nutrient on my next batch, since I would not be getting any from the smack pack and the recipe I was using recommended it. I ended up ordering some from NB(link below) and it recommended 1 tsp/gal. So I added 5...

I recently brewed a NB Hefe All Grain kit. It gave off quite a lot of sulfur smell for about 2-3 days. On day 11 I transferred to a keg, but upon opening the fermenter it had quite a lot of sulfur smell still. I totally forgot to take a final gravity reading. I then cold crashed it in my...

Cool write-up! Living the home brewers dream! LOL! :mug: http://treehousebrew.com/blog/2016/2/28/a-reflection-and-plans-for-the-future

Yesterday I brewed a NB Mustache Envy Belgian stout. NB stated the OG at 1.080. My pre boil Gravity was 1.056 and I hit 1.066 post boil using a BIAB method and squeezing the bag. I think I used to much mash water. Anyway when I calculate the potential gravity it came out to 1.116. When...

I am in the process of buying all of my brewing equipment. I don't have an endless budget, but prefer to buy once and not dreaming to upgrade to something better. I have been reading up on the SS Brew Bucket and it really isn't much more expensive than buying 2 carboys, a carboy cleaner, auto...

I've had my Igloo 6.0 kegerator for over a year now and I want 2 beers on tap. The tower that came with it is 2 1/2". I've seen someone on the forum squeeze a second shank into a 2 1/2" tower. But it takes the right shank and the right tools. The other option is to bolt on a 3" dual tap tower. I...
