So I have a cider that I was going to dry hop but just realized all I have are herkules and a tiny bit of Newport left. I've used the herkules as a bittering in a German ale, but haven't been able to find anyone's experience with using it for aroma either as a late addition or dry hopping. Thoughts?

So I haven't been brewing in quite a while. And completely forgot about a cider that's been sitting in primary since October. Looks good, smells good. Worth bottling? If so, should I add some yeast to the bottling bucket with my priming sugar, or should there be enough left in the batch to...

My question is this, fermentation has eased a bit and it's safe to remove the blow off and put in my airlock, but everything that was in...

So I'm new-ish. But I've caught the bug. 3 batches in and I am addicted to brewing. Currently brewing extract, small batches(1 gallon), mainly for time and space constraints. First batch(kit) was meh. Just bottled the 2nd(kit), and dry hopping the 3rd(cobbled together 1st recipe) in...

That's a lie, actually. I am from Massachusetts(Go Bruins!), just displaced in a small town in western Oregon. I am a new brewer, 3 batches under my belt. First one tasted like prison hooch. Did not take sanitation seriously enough and it was sour city. I also realized a few other mistakes I...
