Hello. I recently got a sack of this Czech pilsen at my local home brew shop. They didn't have any info on it. I tried to track it down online, but didn't have much luck. Finally (today) I cam across one website with some info. It should be enough to add to Beersmith. But, I'd love it if...

Hello. I'm looking to get away from the glass carboys I have, and move over to fermenting in a 7 gal plastic bucket (Like Clawhammer supply does). I see lots of mod videos/instructions online for adding a grommet to the lid for a bubbler airlock. I don't have any of those anymore. I made the...

Hey Guys. Ok, crazy idea here. Someone tell me if I'm out of my mind. I'm thinking of brewing a 5 gallon all-grain batch in a 10 gallon aluminum pot, with 3 hop spiders. Reason: I'm currently using a mesh bag, and want to go to a mesh basket. The mesh BIABasket options here in Canada don't...

First, let me apologize for ANOTHER :rolleyes: post on kettles. I just need someone to talk me off the cliff, or give me a good push. Ok, back into homebrew. All grain. Propane burner on the deck. Been doing small 2.5 gallon batches of BIAB in my steel kitchen stockpot (3.5 gallon), and...

I'm looking to get into BIABasket vs the bag. We seem to be a little more limited up here in Canada in terms of supply. The only basket I see popping up on search results is this Basket from OntarioBeerKegs, but it doesn't come with any way to support it in when draining the wort after the...

Hi All, I just got my propane burner setup, and did a small 2.5 batch in a small stockpot. The propane heat coming out from under the kettle, and up the sides, caught my hop bag string on fire. Not the end of the world, but it brought me to my real concern. I'm looking to buy a copper...

Hello. I'm just getting into all grain again. Don't have my old mill anymore. But I do have a german made mill for making bread: Komo Fidibus 21 It uses stones to grind the grains. I figured that I could just dial the coarseness way back and see how it does. I tried 4 different grinds with...

Bit the bullet and picked up a welder o2 bottle today, for aerating wort. I also picked up an argon regular(modded for o2), so I could really dial down the o2 to a reasonable amount. Problem is that the flowmeter is not psi, but CFH - cubic foot per hour. Starts at 5 CFH and goes up to 40...

I am about to smash my face into a brick wall. Every time I try to use my diffusion stone, it doesn't work. I boil it, while hooked up to the pump, and it'll start working fine. Then I put it in the wort, and it doesn't work. It seems like it'll only function when it is hot, and the...

I've been brewhouse buying beer kits from my LHBS for the past couple years. Today, I visited their website to plan a new batch, and it is now a winery website ... ??! :eek: Anyone know if Brewhouse is dead? http://www.thebrewhouse.com

Hey, I just discovered today that my kegerator, while still having power, isn't cooling a thing. Now that I've recovered from my sobbing, I am looking for some advise. Will the beer in the keg be ok? Common sense says 'YES', but I've been known to lack common sense. And, more...

This is the first time I've made stout, and I'm a little freaked out by what I now taste...I am ready to keg after 1 month in primary, and I tasted the beer after taking a sample for gravity reading. A week ago they tasted like stout (rich and malty), and now they taste like vinegar... So, a...

So, I've run into a bit of a dilemma. I have beer lagering in my Kegerator at 34F and I want to chuck a new batch in the kegerator to ferment. Unsure of what to do with the temps. Anyway, I just started all grain about 5 weeks ago. I made two batches - munich dunkel, and czech pilsner -...

Anyone know where I can pick up a Bayou Classic SQ14 in Canada - more specifically, Edmonton, Alberta. I only see them in the USA. They are dirt cheap on Amazon.com ($53.00), but it is the additional $140-ish for shipping that kills me. Thanks!
