So, being the lazy person I am, I waited too long to pitch yeast after brewing (I blame it on the yeast I bought not looking like it was good, it was clumpy in the starter, and trying to give it more time to... I don't even know). And now I have an infection in the batch. Would pitching my...

I want to brew a nice bourbon oaked barleywine but am having some trouble coming up with a recipe. Is the basic equation a ton of base malt and small amounts of specialty malts? I've been thinking of using marris otter, because i believe it to be slightly more flavorful than 2-row (without any...

I was wondering the other day, is there any sort of compendium of ingredients, such as grains, hops, and yeast available?

So, im in the middle of brewing some oatmeal stout, while sipping on some Fat Tire clone (from northern brewer) Day started off terrible, but is going well now. just wanted to let everyone know!

I'm going to be building my keezer soon, but am currently looking into temp controllers. I really like the look of the love controllers but can't figure out for the life of me if I'd have to wire it myself into the freezer of it's a "plug-n-play" type deal. If anyone could please help me out...

I was wondering if anyone has done this, or is even feasible. But I was thinking of just removing the lid of a chest freezer completely, and replacing it with wood and staining it to make it look nice and all. Ofcourse i'd have to insulate the inside and what not. any thoughts?

Does anyone know if you can pull that little "rocket" out of the Guinness draught bottles?

So I'm new to the world of home brewing and have two quick questions. The first being, if a recipe calls for a step mash, would it make a huge difference if I do an infusion mash instead? Also, if I'm going to pitch dry yeast, other than cooling the wort, is there anything else I need to do...
