I just wanted to lament in chemistry terms.... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-13067547

So when I first started making mead, I got Ken Schramm's book and listened to the Jamil show on meads. I really didnt notice a lot of attention paid to the yeast fermenation temperatures... nothing NEAR the attention paid to yeast fermentation temperatures in recipes as I see in beer.... so, I...

Ive looked through the Honey Locator in regards to varietal honeys, and Im looking for the best prices on 5 gallons of any particular honey from places that will ship. Outside of Miller's (CA) and Dutch Gold (PA), are there any others that have exceptionally good prices when buying bulk?

I was in the Netherlands and Belgium last spring for the first time, and I noticed at several of the bars I went to, they had faucets on their beer towers that had a lever arm on the side. Is this some kind of alternate faucet system? Any clue what they are called and where to get them? Only...

So, a couple of weeks ago, someone stole my keggles from my backyard for scrap metal..... thats a whole 'nother story... I was essentially dialed in well and could consistently hit ~80% brewhouse efficiency over the last 15 batches or so.. Borrowed a friend's keggles (not very different from my...

Anyone know of information on chill hours required for hops? Or maybe if there are any low-chill cultivars? Central Texas gets schizophrenic weather in the fall and winter (50's to 30's to 80's then back to 50's over a couple of days in Jan or Feb is not unheard of).

I have a head retention question, and not finding an obvious thread with the search: Made a Helles with ~15% Carapils (I know.. way too much).. everything was okay.. it dried 1.054->1.010.. but I would have thought the head formation would have been huge and sustained. Primary for 3.5 weeks...

Half year Lurker that got bitten by the bug. What started out as watching someone brew a 5gal extract batch in May of this year this year turned into my own little brewery. It all really started when I fixed a "broken" frig at my house (diagnosed everything only to find out the thermostat...
