I'm starting this thread to consolidate my projects, track WIP and offer help for people who want labels for their homebrew. I'll also offer the step-by-step process I take when creating labels so that you can work on your own or tinker with the end result I give you. Thanks to HBT member...

After scouring CL for a while, I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask here. I'm looking for a refrigerator with a lot of naked space on the inside for kegs and general beer stuff. It doesn't have to be beautiful, just in proper working condition. I'm also not looking to spend a fortune on it, I've...

Hey guys and girls! I would really like to make a trade with someone, more so to get into trading than to get anything in particular. I'm willing to try to get whatever I can locally, we have a fairly large selection until you get into some of the west coast stuff. So, not sure the best way...

The Incredible History of Buffalo, NY in 5 Minutes Buffalo catches a lot of flak from the media and it is usually from an uniformed, one-sided opinion. I love everything about this city, struggling sports teams and erratic weather included. There is new craft beer, and breweries popping up...

Hey everyone... I got a couple recipe kits from Northern Brewer for xmas. - Bavarian Hefeweizen - Winter Warmer Scottish Ale The gifters bought the extract kits, I am okay with it but some reviews say at least for the hefe, that the end product was 'lacking'. Therein lies my questions...

Hey, I've got a large group of friends coming up from PA for the SuperBowl. My buddy and I decided to have a little brewing showdown and let the PA crew be the judges. They all seem to love our local Blueberry Wheats and Strawberry Blondes, and very few of them enjoy IPA's. I'm looking for...

Hey everyone... I took my wife to the store last night with me to get priming sugar so I could bottle my beer and prepare to bottle a cider around New Years Eve. Long story short, the lhbs talked her into a nice little kegging kit. It didn't matter to me, I liked bottling. So needless to say, I...

I found someone who is selling a dorm fridge converted kegerator. Comes with all the fixtures, keg and CO2. He also just filled the keg from the local brewery a day or two ago. Price set firm at $325. I'm kind of giddy about finding this, but I do not keg yet and really want to. Is this a fair...

Hi! I have on hand, 6 lbs. Muntons DME and a large supply of whole cone nugget hops. Can anyone help me make this into a partial mash recipe? Any style is fine. I am an IPA fan so I am not worried about bitterness or not but am also not specifically looking for an IPA recipe since I've got a lot...

I recently gave brewing another try this September when I joined HBT and after annoying the living hell out of a few members, successfully made a partial-mash pale ale. It has reinvigorated my love for the hobby after previously quitting for a few years after a devastating attempt to switch to...

Hey all. I currently have a basic setup with a few decent additions but I still bottle. I would like to eventually get into kegging and have been keeping an eye on craigslist. The problem however, is that I have no idea what I am looking for and anything that is already constructed is way out of...

Hey guys and girls, I just bottled my first beer after getting back into the hobby and ended up with a great product thanks to all the help from the friendly people on this forum. I must however get more going before I run out, which will happen very soon with my bachelor party coming up. My...

Hey guys, I have a modest set up consisting of the standard homebrew starter set and a few extra tools. Everything to make 5 gallons at a time comfortably and have a few 6 gal fermentation buckets & carboys. My biggest issue it seems at the moment that I must overcome ASAP is temp. control. The...

Hi DiY guys and girls. After being here a few weeks and being blown away by the amount of generosity throughout the site, I just wanted to start this thread to try and give back. If anyone has any sketches for their new bar, ideas with general dimensions or anything they would like drawn up...

I can't stop thinking about getting back into brewing. I quit after a batch I put my heart and soul into that turned into gushers. I've decided to take another swing at it since the hops I planted that never previously sprouted, produced a very bountiful crop this year. I'm going to harvest this...

Hi friends. I've been brewing for a few years, referencing this site for information and have finally today joined to post. My first thread explains everything, if I do this right you can find it here: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f39/new-guy-first-post-489464/ I could really use some help...

I've been referencing this site for information for a long time and now that I am getting more serious about the beer I make and drink, it is time for me to post. So first I'll give some background: I started brewing three years ago when I was in college and had to rob the change from my...
