I started using beerzyme, a glycosidase product to extract extra flavor from added hops. I generally do a whirlpool hop addition followed by knockout hops (day 0 dry hop addition, as we call it). From my understanding, the enzyme splits aromatic terpenes from a glucose molecule, an example being...

I wonder if anyone has done something similar. I have an idea of brewing a beer with beets/carrots/turmeric/ginger; like a health drink but with low quantities of alcohol. The following is a recipe I threw together for a 5-6 gallon batch. The Veggies (carrots/ginger/turmeric/lemons/beets) would...

I don't believe I've posted for a few years, but I thought I'd unload a line of thought that's been floating around my head. So, the main purpose of this question revolves around the use of the hop Ekuanot. Like some, I get a heavy load of sage/pepper/herbal character which to me is somewhat...

http://www.usplastic.com/catalog/item.aspx?itemid=23885&catid=743 The website says that the quick disconnects can be used for beverage dispensing, although at ~$2 per coupler pair, it seems almost too good to be true. Anyone have any experience with these?

Trying to find a supplier of bulk amounts of bottle caps for bottling at home. I'm thinking a bag of 1000-2000 count. Anyone know of one?

If anyone has tried a strong Belgian with such high attenuation, that it left your mouth puckered and begging for moisture, then you know what I mean; that is my goal, a beer so dry that it borders on wine. I'm thinking in the 9% range and at the lowest final gravity possible. A few ideas...

Doing some research on the feasibility of brewing a barely based gluten-free ale using the same ingredients I always do. The problem of course is that barley contains gluten, loads of it, so my response is 'destroy it!' Are there any known types of glutenase which are known to break-up...

After you finish sparging, you inevitably end up with some weak wort which slowly drains down your mash tun. Its sweet, its warm, its good; what do you do with it? So far, I've mixed it with whiskey to celebrate the brew day, or mixed it with black coffee for some good bread-tasting coffee...
