    Yakima Valley free shipping

    Just got an email from Yakima Valley for free shipping until Monday. Does anyone know how often they run this special? I want to stock up but if this is something they do every couple months then I will scale down my order. Prices at my LHBS are way higher on grain and hops.

    Mixed-Style Beer 10-42 Shandy

    So last year I experimented with three recipes for a shandy. They were all okay but not what I was hoping for. This year I went with a new recipe I came up with that is a blend of ideas from others and my previous attempts. I offered this up to the neighbors at a cookout last week and it...

    Virginia 2 way manifolds

    I have two 2 way Co2 manifolds that I don't need. They are both brand new and never used. The one was only opened to take the pic. I bought these a while ago and decided to get a secondary to control each keg independently. Paid $33 for each plus shipping. I am willing to sell them together...

    Northern Brewer Smashing Pumpkin

    Okay, so I had a few friends over who do not brew and they wanted to help me brew a batch of this yesterday. Between the distraction of them and the beers we consumed, I forgot to add the spice packet at flame out and only realized it this morning. Would it be better to pull the airlock and add...

    I brewed Norther Brewer's Dry Dock Apricot Ale two weeks ago. Today when I went to switch it to the secondary, I took a gravity reading and tasted it. It had a really strong bitter taste and strong smell. I am trying to find out if this is normal or if I should leave it in the primary longer...

    1st brew

    Hello all. My wife bought me the deluxe kit from Northern Brewer for Christmas and the American Wheat kit came with it. Brewed it a few weeks ago and everything went good. OG was 1.045 and FG was 1.010 after two weeks. I bottled it last Thursday and have been letting it sit. I decided I...
