    Back Burner Ale

    Back in August I brewed NB's Phat Tyre clone. It fermented down nicely in primary and I moved it to secondary. It has been in secondary since late september. The room has remained a constant temp, and I have been pretty religous about keeping vodka in the airlock. Life has just been real busy...

    Dry hopping gone wrong?

    Yesterday I bottled my first IPA which I dry hopped for 8 days. My racking procedures are not quite at "expert" level, and I noticed in some of my bottles there are a few chunky particles of hop pellets. I read about this on another thread some time ago, but cant seem to find it for the life of...

    Ideas on this kettle/burner?

    I stumbled across this, and was wondering what your thoughts are on purchasing this so I can start doing full boils? Seems like a good price for the combo.

    Quick Better Bottle Question

    I just purchased a better bottle for making apfelwein, and was wondering if I need to do anything to it besides sanitize it before I can start adding ingredients. May be a dumb Q but I just want to be sure! Thanks in advance.

    Idophor staining?!?

    This morning, I sanitized my racking cane and hydro testing stuff (wine theif, hydro and graduated cylinder). I left them in for about ten minutes. When I pulled all of them out, there is noticable color in the plastic hose on my racking cane. Should I just pick a new one up, or is it not a big...

    How much does beer "clean up" in fermenter?

    Last week, I brewed a True Brew American Wheat kit with success. Visible co2 release only lasted about three days, and then no co2 release in airlock. This poses no concern, thanks to revvys signature line. Today I decided to take a grav reading to see where I was at, 1.019. There was noticeable...

    Old Glass Soda Bottles?

    Well, as I stated in an earlier post, I got a bunch of free Brewing supplies from my fiances uncle. SCORE!:rockin: As awesome as it is, the bottles he gave me (which he had bagged up in a bunch of garbage bags in boxes) are mostly dark green old 7-up bottles from the 70's. These are some sweet...

    Condensation Question

    May be a rookie question, but i put my first batch into the primary fermenter just over 24 hours ago. CO2 is being released like mad, but with that gas, should there be a fair ammount of condensation gathering on the top of my brew bucket? To answer two standard questions that will inevitably...

    First batch tonight!

    After too much pondering, I finally got all the necessities for home brewing my first batch! My Fiance's uncle used to be an avid homebrewer, but since diagnosed with celiacs disease 5 years ago, his old gear has just been gathering dust. I went and picked it all up last weekend, and gave it all...
