I've had a barleywine fermenting for about 2 months now (a month primary, a month secondary) and want to give it another month before bottling. I want to dry hop it but am not sure when the best time to do that is. I've heard leaving hops in for too long can create some grassy flavors, so I'd...

I brewed a hoppy brown this weekend and want to dry hop it but also oak it with bourbon soaked oak cubes. Has anyone done both of these before? Should I add one before the other? Any insight is great!

Hey everyone, After a couple years working in clinical and research labs, I have decided that I may want to extend my science knowledge into working at a brewery. For those who either work at a brewery or have applied for a job, do you have any recommendations for buzzwords and important...

As I am sure many of you are aware, Northern Brewer is currently having a sale on select all grain kits for $20.16 each (if you buy three). I am about to brew my first beer using BIAB and thought maybe a kit would be helpful in learning the new process. However, because you have to buy three...

I'm heading down to Orange, CA tomorrow and obviously want to be drinking beer while I'm there so I was wondering if anyone knew some of the good breweries in that area.

Hello all, I am heavily considering stepping up from extract to BIAB and had a quick question. Is a 10 gallon kettle usually big enough for 5 gallon BIAB batches? I know that typically about 7 gallons of water is used in the process, but is 10 gallons still big enough after the volume...

I went through quite a few pages of the General Techniques section hunting for an answer to this, so hopefully I'm not beating a dead horse here. What are people's thoughts on cold crashing before dry hopping? I can't completely remember, but I recall reading somewhere that dropping the yeast...
