The last time this deal came around I picked one up and posted on here and several others did as well so I'm going to pass it along again. To be clear, I have no interest in this, I dont sell these, bla bla bla. I'm just passing along what seems like a pretty good deal to me...

Whos smoking the turkey for Thanksgiving and what tips does anyone have? I made the mistake of serving up some tasty BBQ to the family so I'm making the turkey this year in the smoker. Planning on a 24hr brine, still not sure about injecting and open to any suggestions b/c ive never smoked a...

my last few smokes i have gotten a flare up in the wood chip box which has caused a ton of undesireable thick smoke. i caught it quickly both times and vented the cabinet so the food wouldnt take any creosote or off flavors and it was fine, but i was wondering if there are any ways to reduce...

i have a football doubleheader this weekend, UCF v. FIU today, and the Dolphins game tomorrow, so I had to smoke a pork butt for at least one of them. This beauty just came out of the smoker after 15hrs. No foil, just low and slow all the way. Bone came out and the damn thing almost fell...

I forgot to rack to a new carboy before adding my K sorbate. I was thinking I should add a little more to the new carboy when I rack tonight, but I dont want to overdo it. How much is overkill and is it a good idea to add more sorbate to my new carboy to rack on top of tonight? I read...

So ive got 5 Gal of store bought cider, to which ive added 1lb of brown sugar, that has pretty much finished up fermenting with a chardonnay yeast. I took a taste and its quite dry, as planned, so im going to backsweeten. I have some potassium sorbate which I planned to add after the weekend...

Just got a GOSM and fired it up for the first time (after seasoning it) last night. Made some bacon wrapped chicken breasts that came out fantastic. Smoked for 225 for about 3hours and turned it up briefly to crisp up the bacon at the end before pulling them out. Im hooked... A pork butt is...

I have a kegerator, and i was curious to see if anyone has done one of those keezer builds with a store bought kegerator to make it a little nicer looking. hard to search for that because as soon as you type "keezer" you get all the keezer builds. I was thinking of turning the kegerator...

i misread the vial of yeast I used for an Alaskan Amber Clone (White Labs WL029). it said to pitch between 70-75, and ive been keeping the temp up there for all of fermentation. I'm 6 days in so far and its still bubbling away, is there anything I can do from here on out to reduce the bad...

so i brewed a coffee oatmeal stout and im not a big fan of it. i really think it could benefit from some aging, but i only have one keg and tap for now and i dont want it taking up my keg so im thinking about trying to "fix" the beer by adding something, perhaps chocolate in some form?? gonna...

Ok i know there are plenty of threads on here to read though for advice on adding coffee, the only problem is that they all have different measurements or are lacking some sort of crucial information (for the most part) I want to dumb it down and ask again because I want to add coffee to the...

I have an oatmeal stout in the carboy right now about 2 weeks in and fermentation is pretty much done (i used a fast acting yeast that blows up quickly). i want to know if there is a big difference between using a secondary fermenter or just racking it to my keg to condition in the kegerator...

ok so i got the idea to brew a chocolate stout but with the addition of muscle milk protein powder. just got back into the gym and that damn muscle milk is tasty... i was curious if anyone has ever brewed a beer with protein powder and if there are any problems with that concept. also, if its...

Ok i did a search and didnt find an answer to my problem so far. my first pour is mostly foam (but i dump it out anyway because im having a problem with iodophor in the line so im gonna replace the line) My second pour comes out with very little head and is pretty flat. I started off trying...

So when i bought my kegerator used, i sanitized everything and ended up leaving some iodophor/water in the beer line for about a week. now i have an obnoxious situation. my first pour tastes like iodophor. if the beer gets to sit in the line for any significant amount of time, it tastes like...

I am a noob and just bought my first kegerator used in great shape. The 5lb CO2 bottle has some gas left in the tank. I have just kegged my first brew. After cleaning/sterilizing the keg and lines I am down to about 650psi. How much will I need to push out the 5gal. I am of course looking...
