Neighbor combining winter wheat today. So why not give an American wheat beer a try? I got 2 buckets hoping for a 10 gallon batch. A couple of questions Can I go right to the mill with this? It's red wheat and the seeds are dry, hard and swéet tasting. I believe I have enough wheat for a 10...

So just for giggles I brewed a Cider House apple cider kit. But I fed it plain white table sugar until the yeast died. Then i racked it through a length of sani copper pipe and finished it off as a wine. I ended up with just a little over 18% ABV. Then I cut it with 1/3 Walmart brand apple...

Sorry if this has been asked previously (most likey) but I have several 5 gallon food grade plastic buckets that I ferment cabbage in every year to make kraut. The 5 gallon buckets need to be cleaned badly... I've made several batches of kraut in them and cleaned with bleach water and...

What you think? All 5 for $60.00, maybe a MLT and a HLT? pretty rough, worth a rescue?

So once the mash is done, what do you do with the grains? I carry the mashtun out to the chicken yard and dump it. My Chickens Love Me.

Look at what I'll need to do a closed (CO2) transfer from a 1/4 or 1/2 barrel Sankey (primary to secondary fermention). And also from a Sankey to ball-lock serving keg. Sorry if this has been asked before, I searched and came up dry... Maybe there is an after market setup I can purchase? Thanks

I was wondering if some experienced German style brewer, would take me under her/her wing and teach me how to brew decent German style beers in accordance with Reinheitsgebot? I'm currently setup for 10 gallon all-grain batches, with climate controlled fermention chambers and a lagering chamber...

Have any of you experienced a faint salty flavor with Fermentis Safale K-97?

Maybe this has been asked before. If so I apologise. I'm looking for a chart hopefully to convert Briess DME's to Briess malt(s). I don't know if something like this exists, but it would come in handy. For example if I pull the specs for Briess Pilsen Light DME it lists 99% Pilsen Malt and 1%...

I have a lb of German Spalt 3.8% Alpha to play around with. I've never brewed with them before, any recipe ideas?

I currently have a self developed spotted cow inspired recipe that I'm calling Spotted Lamb in the primary. It's inspired from the older spotted cow before New Glarus switched from corn in their grain bill. I used 5 ounces of Indian flour corn, I grew in the garden last year instead of flaked...

PLEASE NOTE - Batch Size is 6 gallons I developed this recipe because I don't like the burnt sugar/prune/raisin taste of Carmel/Crystal 120L. Nor do I like the burnt bitter coffee taste of 500L roasted barley. But I do like a smooth easy drinking Irish red ale. If your going to brew this, Go...

So I brewed a doppelbock back in early October 2019. It took 9 weeks to complete primary fermention (including diacetyl rest) OG 1.096 / FG 1.016 with Saflager 34/70. At the time of kegging for lagering, it looked, smelled and tasted wonderfully STRONG. I usually lager german style beers in...
