EDIT: SOLD!!! THANKS GUYS!!! I just found out I'm moving in a few weeks... Won't have the room to brew, let alone have a kegerator, kegs, kettles, mash tun.. etc. IT'S GOTTA GO!!! BEFORE YOU ASK - THE ONLY WAY I WILL SPLIT UP IS THE FOLLOWING: KEGERATOR W/ TEMP CONTROLLER EVERYTHING...

EDIT: In order to be fair to everyone, PLEASE EMAIL ME. I apologize, I did not realize that there was a limit on my PM IN/OUT box and it's now full (@ 5 total). Not trying to break forum rules here - just trying to be fair to everyone who may be met with an "inbox full" message. All, Thanks for...

Homebrewing Equipment for Sale I have this habit of trying hobbies, then buying an exorbitant amount of crap in support of said hobby… only to be followed by either a loss of interest in said hobby, or finding a new hobby that occupies enough time to get me out of the old one&#8230...

I was also thinking about subbing 5lbs of the MO with Pilsner Malt - but, like the honey malt, only because I haven't used it as a base before.... thought's on that idea??

Ahh, sorry... it's 8.00 oz of Honey Malt. I haven't used Honey malt before, but have read that it's easy to go overkill with it. Good info on the 30 min addition - Thanks Yoop.

Looking to brew an APA this weekend... thoughts on this recipe?? Expected Pre-Boil Gravity: 1.043 SG Expected OG: 1.051 SG Expected FG: 1.012 SG Expected ABV: 5.1 % Expected IBU (using Tinseth): 37.2 IBU Expected Color (using Morey): 6.6 SRM Mash Efficiency: 75.0 % Boil Duration: 75.0...

bump for any additional opinions... What temps are "too high" and/or "too low" for aging/cellaring of a Barleywine?? Thanks again all...

I think it's an interesting idea, but... I tend to agree with the others, w/o a check valve of some sort, you might put an air bubble in your line @ or right behind the solenoid, which is probably going to make the start of your next pour kinda rough... w/o a restrictor plate (which... if you...

Sorry, I should have clarified a bit more... I'm not one to run my air conditioning much in the summer, so it's not uncommon for my apartment to be in the 75-80°F ambient range. 1. I know temp control is key in Primary Fermentation 2. I can't say I've heard of anyone aging their beer in warmer...

Tried searching around a bit, but am having trouble finding information on my question... So, I'd like to brew a barleywine in the next month or so so it's "ready" for fall. But, I don't have a cellar for longer aging. For regular ales that ferment out in a few weeks, I don't have a problem...

:eek: Man, I hope you weren't on it... (or, if you were, that you're ok - humans are significantly less replaceable than bikes). I might be inconsolable if that happened to my baby. How do you like the Connie?? I've heard nothing but good things about them (esp the latest-greatest)...

That looks BA Yuri...

Well, honestly, if you can swing it... I say don't hesitate. Buy one tomorrow. It is, without a doubt the most incredible machine I have ever ridden. :rockin: How do I like it?? hah, Well, I might be a little biased, but IMO, it's the single most bad-@$$ bike on the market. If you're...

Well... the riding season is almost upon us here in Chicago and I can't stop thinking about it, so I thought I'd revive an old thread... Here's my partner in crime: 2008 Suzuki B-King Cross-country trip, summer 2008 That trip was solo & I felt like I needed a little 'company' at...

I agree with the others - It sounds like your hop additions are at the wrong times. The right hop additions at the "correct" times are going to GREATLY improve your results. That said, different recipes add hops at different times... so bear that in mind with your future brews. This is...

I did a Vienna/Northern Brewer SMaSH as my 1st All Grain. I'd go for it as and do a true SMaSH - if you don't go too hop happy (which it doesn't look like you are), I think it'll turn out pretty darn good with just the Vienna character.

Okie doke: I've been into the idea of making a beer with Rye ever since I tried a few RyePA's relatively recently... but I'm thinking about more of a malt forward somethin' ... maybe a Red Rye Ale or a Rye Red ale?? I'm also kinda on a kick to do my own recipes more than follow others, even...

If you listen to the episode, that's pretty much what it boils down to... or at least they (Coca-cola) put it to very much that exact explanation - that the recipe was likely a prototype. Also, This American Life had to scale the recipe based on extractions of oils 130 years ago vs. now, and...

Greetings from Geneva... :mug:

I've got a 36 qt marine igloo that I converted (I had it "gifted" to me after a road trip last summer because my buddies didn't want it). I've only used it a few times, but I think anything bigger than a 14-15 Lb grain bill would be pushing it past it's limit. So... unless you get really good...
