Amber True Brew Kit has finally bottle conditioned and lemme tell you.....................Heaven. Its my first HomeBrew and I'm hooked. Next month the local HomeBrew Club meets and I am going to join. Thanks to everyone who posts on this site for helping my first HomeBrew be a success. Cheers

I didnt want it to over power the beer. It is only my second brew..........so trial and error. I will let you know if you can taste the berries. You sure can smell em.

Dried Blueberries .5oz. in last fifteen minutes of boil, then in the secondary .5oz. Hehehehe my wort had a blue tint to it cant wait til its done.

Just finished my first partial grain brew. All was well...........very tired going to bed. Blueberry Belgian Wit in the primary. Any predictions? Should I post the recipe?

Exciting news!!!!!!!!!! The LHBS Ive been talking about I finally got a day off and went. Lemme tell you. .........every person that works at the shop is a walking talking dictionary of brewing knowledge. They make their own kits (No True Brew Stuff)and they will work with you to create your...

:mug:Now if it was Colt 45 I would want the recipe!:cross:

You guys are awesome. I learn alot from forum research. Im a big DIY type of guy, so I know brewing beer will be another one of my passions. I taught myself Mycology through hours and hours of internet research and forums like this. If I can clone mushrooms through tissue culture I am sure I...

I agree about the site.............it does look like it was designed by a kid with a crayon, but do they carry a sufficient amount of equipment and ingredients? It looked pretty good to me, but I'm a noob so I dont trust my own opinion quite yet. I learn at an exceptional rate..............or I...

Thanks for all the great insight. Lucky for me a fellow homebrewer in the area told me of a store about 20 minutes from my house that actually distributes to the "angry old lady". He also told me that the drive is worth it for knowledge alone. He also said Ive been getting my supplies from the...

There are only two shops in my immediate area. One sells more gourmet cooking equipment then anything and has a little angry old lady there that Ive tried to ask questions and she just tells me to buy her brewing books. They do carry fresh hops in their freezer, malt extracts, sugars (priming...

Thank you for your responses. I want to try a recipe that I need to steep grains for because I want to challenge myself a little more. Also, IMO you should be able to purchase quality ingredients cheaper than just buying kits. So if anyone could suggest a recipe for a good Light German Lager...

I just bottled my first brew. True brew amber. It was pretty easy and I was wondering if anyone has a suggestion on a good second project? I love all beer so style is of no concern. I just want to try to brew something that is good but not extremely difficult. Thanks for all the great help...

Might I add its a no rinse.

Ive been thinking that i could use the sani tabs (you know the blue stuff used for sanitizing beer and drink glasses at a bar). You see I work at a bar and I could trade the boss a few beers for acouple bottles of the tabs. It says on the bottle it kills HIV virus...

Thanks for the help. Do you have any insite on temp?

I am using the True Brew Amber Kit for my first Homebrew it has stopped bubbling after about 4 days so I'm right on track per the directions. So it says wait 3-4 days then rack it to a bottling bucket then bottle. Would I benifit from a Secondary fermentation?....Please let me know if I am...
