Just signed up, stoked!

Took 3rd in the Saison category, first entry as well. Was going for RIS, but that got beat up! :) Makes me want to brew more!!!

Awesome tips guys, I'm definitely going to check it out. I honestly don't think it was water issues since my transfers tasted fine, and my batch after doesn't have the flavor either (bottled it last night) using the same method for brew day. That said I will still be getting water filtration...

So I'm 2 years into brewing and I finally pulled the trigger on a keg setup. I bought all my fittings and lines from keg connection, and some corny's from a local brewer leaving the hobby. Built my keezer, attached the controller, and then I finally racked a porter into the first keg and...

I've heard that too, but don't you need like a few drops for a 5 gallon batch? I sanitized a SS rod and stirred the bubbles down a bit, but they are so thick is just seems to stick to the rod and delay the overflow for about an hour. This is the second time this has happened and it's...

https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f163/yeast-starter-overflow-how-much-lost-191513/ I found a post on my issue and it is sort of disheartening, seeing as how I'm looking at my yeast starter slowly spew out yeast product. I had made a nice little starter with my new 2L flask last week but had...

I'm in the process of my first Schwarzbier and I have a question regarding the diacetyl rest. I pitched my yeast close to a month ago, then fermented at 50 (in my awesome new fermentation chamber!). A week and a half ago I pulled my carboys out and let them sit for 48 hours at 65 for the...

I haven't yet. I might have to wait until the weekend though. Can I refrigerate until Thursday then make another starter wort with my current starter?

No kidding huh?!?! Thanks for the info!

So I've been making yeast starters for a bit now and have been loving it. I have however never done or read about what I happened to do with the latest batch and am wondering if I'm okay. After my starter batch I shook up my wort, pitched my yeast, and placed it on my stir plate for 2...

Here's what I am going to try out next: http://byo.com/component/resource/article/Recipes/104-India%20Pale%20Ale/2113-widmer-brewing-s-w-10-pitch-black-ipa-clone My question is, I got home from the LHBS and realized that I bought the 80L instead of the 10L crystal malt. I'm still planning...

Very cool, thanks! I might add some more yeast only because the recipe calls for it (along with the clear candy sugar along with the priming sugar). I have been patient with the Belgium, and I will continue to!

Well that part is true, my friend actually made a double IPA a while back. After primary he racked in secondary for 3 weeks then bottled. I just saw him last night and he said it has been over 2 weeks and there is 0 carbonation. He's opened three just to make sure. What could have happened...

Msweat, hop rising (and full suspension) are two of my favorite beers. I'm a little more green to brewing (extract only now) but look forward to doing more.

Greetings all! New to the site(and brewing). I have found myself reading posts almost every night since signing up though! Soooo much good information!
