I don't know either, but it FKN ROCKS Discsuss./

I based it on flyangler's design, except apparently SS 4/8" fender washers don't exist in Fort Worth, so I had to use 5/8" rubber washers instead. The bulkhead wiggles a bit, and leaks 2 or 3 drops an hour, but until I find SS washers, I'll deal with that. Last weekend I did a BIAB, and got...

Gotta brew for my Prussian heritage. I'm looking at something like (at 69% efficiency): 4.75lbs German Roasted Wheat 2.50lbs 2-row pale 1.5oz spalt select 4.0% 90 mins 1.0oz spalt select 4.0% 60 mins Anyone brewed anything similar? Good...bad...suggestions?? Details please :mug: Yeast will...

Also my first AG. Going with the BIAB method for now, since I'm too broke to be buying coolers and an extra pot ATM. Between now and when I brew next week I'll figure out how to nail the mash temp a bit better. Got the pilsner malt double crushed since I'm expecting crap for efficiency. 6.50#...

I read about this on a site or two, and it seems like a cheaper way to introduce the lactic bugs. For those of you in a part of the country with a significant Mexican population, you may be familiar with a "drink" stocked in the yogurt section called Bio-Salud. It's basically an oz of nonfat...

Already brewed, just wanna see if I missed anything/this looks terrible. One of the cheaper things my head has dreamed up. 5 gals: 5lb light LME 0.45lb rye malt 1lb wheat malt slightly < 1lb honey 0.25lb corn sugar 0.75oz Spalt 4.0% @ 90 mins remaining 0.25oz Spalt 4.0% @ 22 mins remaining...

I was checking out vids of people's fermentations on youtube, and I found this band Alestorm. YouTube - Alestorm - Huntmaster Pirates + metal = AWESOME. Wenches and Mead was the first song I heard, and they even have a German version. I think I found some new brewing music :mug:

I saw a honey at the LHBS today...but I can't remember the name (I did buy a few lbs though). It was "star something"....I want to say star thrush? Is that right? Anyway, I was going to do a traditional. 4# of this honey + 1118, unless of course anyone has any better ideas. I tasted it and it...

Mango melomel. 3lbs clover honey, 2.5lbs total mangos, but after the pits and skin came off, it was probably more like 2lbs or slightly less: I used 1116. I was planning on leaving it for a while longer but it seems to be awful thick on the bottom. I didn't take an OG reading because I...

I tried searching the forums for anyone using Arizona green tea, but only found one or two mentions of using a decent amount of green tea. I was thinking something along the lines of: 3lbs clover honey 2lbs plums or oranges topping off to 1gal w/ Arizona green tea 1 campden tablet 1116...

I was going to take a trip down there, but the google maps street view for that address shows an oil derrick and a barren field, and the phone rings and rings with no answering machine or anything. Is this shop still open? It's not exactly close so I don't want to go all the way down there for...

Just wanted to say hello as I just joined up last night. I've been homebrewing almost 2 years, but couldn't really do it often. I used to live in Lubbock, and there aren't very many yeast strains that are tolerant to the temps there, since its 110° for 6 months, then 30° for 6 months. I just now...

I've been homebrewing about two years but have never just made up my own recipe before. I could only brew during the cooler months of the year since where I lived it was very hot (Lubbock), but now I've just moved to Ft. Worth. Anyway, I've never tried to brew this style before, nor have I ever...
