Ive been a member of this forum for a while. Made a few posts, learned a pile of stuff. Been brewing for about 12-13 years now. Life got in the way of posting on a regular basis. Brewing was slowed, and now Im brewing 2-3 batches a month or more, and drinking more beer than I used to so the...

Had this this weekend at Hunahpu Day. Want to make it, or something close badly. Anyone have any clue on it? 12.8% Imperial Stout. Definitely tasted pecan, tons of coffee, chocolate, maple, and the rest was just awesome juice! (Hunahpu Day was a mess)

I went to bottle today and it appears that my wife threw away a crucial part of the beer gun. I have another auto siphon wand to sacrafice, but I dont have another rubber stopper. I need one today and I was at Lowes and they dont carry them. Any suggestions??

OG was at 1.092, added US-05, 2.5 weeks later I am stuck at 1.030, and at 8.1 % ABV. I just transfered to secondary and added another packet of US-05 hoping this will work. I am also going to leave it at 70-72 ambient temp in hopes of helping the yeast get the job done. I was hoping of...

I was thinking of trying to make a Imperial Cascadian ale with coffee and chocolate. The roasted malt will give me some roasted flavor, and then throw in some beans and maybe some bittersweet chocolate. Has anyone ever made, or tried something like this, or is it then just a hopped up...

My wife loves wine, and does not love beer. I love beer, and wine! I am alergic to sulfites to the point to where I get stuffed up, sinuses, flush face, headaches, and sometimes if consuming a few glasses a small rash which lasts for a few days. SO.......after figuring out what caused it, I...

I have looked everywhere, locally, and cannot find them. I know I can find some online, but I have the mash going now for my KBS clone. I have plenty of bittersweet chocolate, unsweetened bakers chocolate, and plain ole milk chocolate. The recipe calls for "1.5 oz unsweetened cocoa nibs...

How about this for cool!!! Was browsing coolers and came across this baby! Entertainment while brewing! If only it had built in bluetooth connection!!!

I just found the results from last years water analysis and I have no idea what my water is like, and what it is good/bad for. Can someone tell me what I am working with here?? sodium 5.2 ppm diethlyhexyl 1.3 ppb chlorine .90 ppb copper .785 ppm lead 3.5 ppb

Im not selling, or going pro, but after 6 years of brewing a lot of beers. I think it is finally time to put a face on my beers! At least for hand outs, and for tap handles. Eurus Brewing. Eurus is the Eastern Wind God. this has much meaning to me in more than one way and I think it as...

I am in the beginning stages of putting together a homebrew club for our area. I have been researching and planning for a while and have decided to pull the trigger on this and get it going! If you would like to join, or help build this up, please PM me and we can go from there. Thanks JJ

I have heard great things about this one! Founders limited production Canadian Breakfast Stout........ Well, I am searching for some ideas on how to incorporate the maple syrup into the stout without fermenting all the good syrupy flavor out of it. Has anyone used maple syrup with good...

I have no idea where to start, and how to let the locals know about it. I am pretty good at building websites and that would be easy, but do I need any licenses, permits, what kinds of liabilities do I need to protect myself from, etc. I am in central FL about 45 mins North of Orlando. I...

Ok.....Rewind 6 years to when i got my first brew equipment, which included a triple scale hydrometer. I still have it and still use it. Well....I decided to check out a refractometer, and bought one from a well known retailer. I got it about 2 weeks ago and calibrated it to "ZERO" with...

Yeah, I live in FL and hear this BS everyday, SO I decided to dedicate my newest creation to the Gulf oil spill. Here it is!!:mug:

These are gone! Thanks! I have 5 bags (1250 count)of these from a few months ago. I bought them and then got my keg setup and don't need them. If you want em, PM me your addy.

Anyone use them? What do you think about them?

I am working on a recipe. it reads XX lbs of pale malt. What does this mean? Belgian pale ale malt, or Pale Ale Malt? It is going in a stout. I just don't know the difference, other than .65 cents per pound difference. Thanks.

I haver tried this one with not so great results. I was flipping through the new Zymurgy mag and came across the recipe given by Jeremy Kosmicki. While not the exact recipe, it should be close. 5 US Gallons 13.25 lbs pale malt 1.5 lbs flaked oats .75 lb roasted barley .75 lb Belgian...

I have been brewing now for 6 years and have hundreds of brews under my belt. I have never had any constructive feedback. They are all "I love it", "I don't like that type of beer", or "I don't care for it". I want to get someone who would sample my homebrews and give me some feedback...
