    STC-1000 temp controller mounting

    For those of you that have built collar keezers or coffin keezers.... Have any of you mounted the temp controller in a recess in the collar/draft tower? I've seen a few external pictures, but no internal ones. How did you approach this? Is the STC-1000, or equivalent, inside a box to...

    Harvesting yeast from a bottle

    Does anyone know if he yeast in these beers is the primary fermenting strain? They are Schladminger and Stiegl lagers from Austria I wanted to culture these to do a nice pale pilsner or lager soon. Cheers!

    Sour beer dregs questions....

    Got a few sour beers from an international beer store here in Australia.

I have a beer that I primary fermented with Wyeast Belgian Ardennes (WY3522) for 4...

    New to mead making

    I've been brewing beer for the past 5 years and never really had the opportunity to try my hand at making a mead. This past week I was given 14 kg of local mead (Atherton Tablelands, North Queensland, Australia) and I wanted to use most of it to make a sweet mead. I was thinking that I would...

    Secondary with B. lambicus

    *Note - This is the first sour/brett/funky beer that I've tried to make. I just transferred a 23 liter batch of 1.036 OG (1.008 FG) beer fermented with Wyeast Belgian Ardennes yeast into a secondary bucket with a packet of Wyeat B. lambicus. I was wondering how long it will take for there to...

    Pumpkin in the mash

    I was wondering about the amount or pumpkin to put in the mash for an all-grain batch of pumpkin ale. I was thinking about using 6-8 lbs of canned pumpkin in a semi-pale ale type recipe and maybe adding some medium crystal to give it a darker color. Here is what I'm thinking about: Grain...
