    Dead freezer?

    Since I'm stuck at work and can't go home to mess with it I figured I'd just see what you guys thought. I picked up a freezer earlier this week of craigs list. My buddy helping me haul it out of the sellers basement slipped when we were loading and the freezer fell onto its back from about...

    Planning for Fermentation Temp Control - Need some veteran advice

    I'm looking at building a simple temp controlled fermentation cabinet. This is just for the next few months until I'm out of college, I don't want to buy freezers and lug them around with me when I get a real job. Instead of just sticking an AC unit into the box and controlling it that way...

Not many of them like full flavored dark beer or super hoppy IPAs like I do. This recipe seemed to fit the bill for something with moderate body and...

    Temperature swings and brewing

    So this is not meant to be taken as a "new guy is afraid thread" more as a "new guy is curious and a search has not yielded anything" thread. Relax everyone, I'm not worried and I'm having a microbrew (from a brewery only 25 miles north of me that I just discovered after living here a year)...

    First brew - I want to make it better

    So to make a long story short, this is my second shot at homebrewing, but my first with beer. The first time was with mead but it never actually fermented (bad yeast?) and after wasting $50 worth of honey I put the hobby down for a few years. When I realized i had no big project for this...
