During this morning's brew in my Grainfather G30, the controller locked up very early in the mash (at 5 minutes in, according to the countdown timer). While I was upstairs getting all the boil stuff ready, the GF kicked off the heat, but kept the pump running. I came downstairs about 20 minutes...

I replaced the diptube o-ring and got a perfect pour. Thanks!!

Nube kegger here. I am onto my second keg, and have been battling over foamy/under carbonated beer for a little over a week on it. I am still building out my system and have yet to make permanent taps. My system is extremely simple at the moment: Just the C02 tank, regulator, 1 line, 1 keg, 1...

Let's just say, if you could legally sell me your homebrew, I'd buy it just to see where my skills are. So I sample the commercial stuff, just to stay grounded in reality. I'm finding that I do better at Saisons than what I can buy. Like this Boulevard Tank 7 clone. But about everything else? I...

I just found out seconds ago that DIY fridges are a thing. I've got interesting vertical space...

I'm tired of bottling. It was very satisfying early on, but now it is a joy-kill. The problem I have with kegging is that I am strapped for floor space in this scaled-down retirement pad. Until I can shuffle things around to make refrigeration work, can I just dispense into growlers and...

The hopefully overhyped snowmageddon me google “Making beer out of sn”… What was the top suggestion? You guessed it, Making beer out of snake venom.

I am a novice home brewer. I started at the beginning of the pandemic when a friend of mine from Pennsylvania told me the state shut down his booze supply. In a panic, I ran into the garage to count days of supply on hand from the grocery store. My wife was already into wine making, so she...

My sticky hobby got kicked out of the kitchen (by me). I was lamenting to my wife that getting a steady temp for sparge water on the hot plate was going to be a challenge. Her reply..."Sous vide".
