Uh...ok......well...I think we may have wandered off the...ok...look...uh......

I've been looking at how these things work and I believe y'all are right. I can't use it for chilling wort, but I believe there is some use for all these components. I got it free and haven't actually tested it yet to see if it works, but it has a hot water spigot and heated hot water reservoir...

I recently got my hands on an office style water cooler...the kind that you put the bottles upside down on. I wonder if there's some way I could utilize it to chill my wort. Any thoughts?

Thanks for your help, ajdelange. Yeah, I was expecting it to be more, too. CHEERS!

Sorry, but what is ETOH?

So I brewed a 5 gal Porter which checked at 7% after primary. While that was happening, I had a bunch of oak chips soaking in 16 oz of 40% whiskey. After primary was complete, I racked the Porter onto the chips AND the whiskey. How much is my final ABV? Just trying to think it through, here's...

Thanks, MattGuk.

...and our IPA...Santa's Helper. Piney hops with a hint of gingerbread.

Simple Mountain Brewing's Very Merry Choc-O-Cherry 2014

Thanks, sboyajian. We currently live in Texas but recently bought some land in central Tennessee. Two or three years from moving, but we visit the Smokeys every chance we get. Love it out there.

Simple Mountain Brewing. My wife and I love the Smoky Mountains and long for the simple life. That's the story and the plan.

Basic Brewing Video and Radio but my favorite is BrewingTV. They don't make em any more but I've watched all of them and they're a lot of fun.

Greetings! I'm wondering if anyone has any favorite audio or video podcasts they would recommend. I've seen almost all the BrewingTV video podcasts as well as the Basic Brewing Video podcasts. Both were helpful but I really enjoyed the BrewingTV episodes. Anyway...thanks for sharing!!

This weekend I will be doing a 2 gal BIAB Maris Otter/Cascade SMASH. Anyonewith BIAB experience or knowledge, what's the best grind for my grains in order to achieve the best efficiency? Seems like a finer grind would be better.

So I used 1lb of Wheat DME and 1/4 oz of Centennial. I added 16oz of Breyer's all natural Strawberry ice cream topping to the primary and let it run. Tasted after ferm and there was no strawberry flavor left. I racked to 2nd with 16 more oz of strawberry which triggered another shorter...

Yeah. That sounds pretty close.

Cool. I will try one soon. Thanks!

I'm wanting to brew up a Pale Ale with a very Earthy/Natural/Organic flavor and aroma. If you've ever walked into Earthbound Trading Company, that's what I would like this beer to wind up like. That smell and general feeling. Kindof a Patchouli/ Nag Champa kind of thing. There are several hops...

I have a few spare ingredients and realized I could make a 1gal batch of wheat beer. My wife likes Red's Strawberry "Ale" so I figured I would make a strawberry wheat beer. I'm using a pound of wheat DME. Now the question...should I use Citra, Centennial, or Simcoe? Those are the three I have...
