    [YAKB] Yet another keezer build

    Hello fellow homebrewers, After paying my due from 3 years of bottling, I am finally ready to step into kegging. I saw Jeebas' thread with all of those awesome keezer builds and I couldn't resist! I had to build my own. I have close to no woodworking experience, so feel free to comment on my...

    Reusing yeast after suck back

    So here is the problem. I planned to brew 2 Belgians using the same strain by reusing the yeast after washing. So I went on and brewed using WLP530. I wanted to clarify the first batch so I set my chest freezer temp. controller to 5C this morning. I came back to find my blow off tube liquid...

    High heat resistant flexible tubing

    I'd like to hook up a tube from my mash tun to facilitate the lautering process. I currently only have vynil hoses which aren't great at high temp. What kind of material is easily accessible at hardware stores that I could use? Flexible tubing would be better. I already have a couple feet of...

    Off-flavor looks like what could be DMS

    Hey guys, My first batch is a scottish 80. I bottled it on monday. The beer tastes alright except for a predominant off-flavor. Its a bit hard to describe but it seems to correspond to DMS. I know I shouldn't diagnose anything before bottle condition is done but I can't help it. One thing...
