    Clear this concept: bottle conditioning vs. just having a bunch of beer on hand

    This is one of the reasons I enjoy having a kegerator with multiple faucets. I can tap a keg and if it isn't "great" I can keep drinking the other ones and occasionaly sample the new one. When it starts tasting good or great, i record the data then ensure I let it age for that length of time...

    No Beer Coming out of Stout Faucet

    A buddy and I just completed a kegerator build for a fellow jarhead who was in Afghanistan. We included a stout faucet. He just got back last evening. When he went to go get a much deserved beer, he would get beer out of the stout faucet for like two seconds then it would slow to a drip...

    Getting Started...

    I would like to be doing relatively large batches and consuming my own beer only in five years. Okay so you need to buy the equipment capable of brewing 10 gallon batches. There is no point in buying a five or seven gallon pot now only to turn around and need to buy a 15 gallon one in a...

    Starsan in secondary

    The foam is a GOOD thing. In pushed out most of the oxygen from your secondary by filling up the space between the top of your beer and the opening of the carboy (assuming you slapped a stopper on it). Now kneel before the foam gods and praise them for granting you the gift of non cardboard...

    Double IPA - much higher SG than expected

    Harrysaxon, Your high OG of 1.095 could be from a number of things. I HATE hydrometers for pre-fermentation work. I also hate the temperature adjustments. I believe not having the wort mixed up could affect your reading. Air bubbles (in a foamy sample) could also cause an increase in...

    4 batches into my brewing obsession, i go all grain.

    Retief, I was in the same boat. My first recipe was an extract from my buddy saying "go buy this and that and some of these". My next recipe was an partial mash kit. My third brew was an extract lager (epic fail realized three months later). My fourth brew was an all grain that turned out...

    Getting Started...

    How large of batches do you plan on doing in five years? Do you plan to move to all grain eventually? Where do you live? How much money do you have to spend? How much room do you have for brewing and storage? Do you need to worry about temp control? Is this something you for...
