    Not sure if my Great Lakes Pale Ale Recipe Kit soured on me?

    Great Lakes Pale Ale Recipe Kit Yeast Options: Fermentis Safale US-05 (Dry) bought from AIH. Nothing special or different in the brew. Clean my big mouth bubbler very well and sanitize with Star San. Hit OG 1.054 and FG 1.015 after 2 weeks. It was fermenting for a week around 68 and the second...

    First BIAB day...in the garage.

    So I drove down to Great Fermentations in Indianapolis, IN and had one of the guys there set me up with a BIAB recipe. He was pretty great about going over all the hops in the fridge, which were delicious, and we chatted about BIAB efficiency, temps and a couple other things. He set me up with a...

    Haier 7.1cu ft Keezer project completed!

    So yeah. This started a few weeks ago after much deliberation on what size to go with. It was quite easy but I made it more difficult that I should have. It was fun and it's functional. Oh yeah and add $100-200 to whatever you think you will end up spending on this project. Still worth it. That...

    Can't get under 1.020 FG! WTF am I doing wrong?

    I have a climate controlled garage, IE it won't get below 60 degrees F most of the time. That being said, most of my final gravities on my home brews end around 1.020. I have 2 different devices that I use and they are similar in readings. They taste fine, a touch sweet, but are drinkable...

    "Unwashed" yeast collection question

    I see lots of people posting pictures of "washed" yeast and collected trub mixture. This is from the bottom of my oatmeal stout. I have a few other jars from an American Brown Ale and it looks identical. All the other pictures I've seen have a considerable amount of beer on top and just a bit...

    5.1-cu ft Arctic King Chest freezer

    I saw this at Walmart for $124 and was curious if anyone has any info on it. Will this fit three ball corny kegs? They are all closed in their shipping boxes so I am unable to bring in a card board cutout. Thanks in advanced.

    So I missed my OG, what does these numbers mean?

    I brewed a Holiday Gingerbread Brown Ale from AIH. OG was supposed to be 1.045 (as per the label) and it came in at 1.035? I have a 2L starter with one full cup of pale DME with my yeast US-05 that I pitched at 65 degrees. WHAT DOES this mean when it comes to missing my original gravity and...

    Haier 7.1cu from Sam's Club - Keezer?

    Anyone make a keezer out of this? If so, how many kegs did you fit in it and what kind of collar was on it? Thanks in advanced! =)

    Is this a CMB gas quick attachment?

    So I ordered a two set of these "CMB" advertised from kegworks on Amazon. The beer side (black connect) was CMB made in germany as advertised, but the grey (gas connect) had a symbol of a gear with the letter S in the middle. I can not find the gas connect with the picture online. Anyone have...

    So proud of my first brew!

    I set out on a mission to start brewing incredible brew from scratch and even though this was a kit set, it gave me hope and a boost of confidence in that I can brew beer!
