I just made a batch of candi sugar for a Belgian ale and poured it on wax paper instead of parchment to cool. Now it has some wax soaked into the candi. Will this wax kill my yeast upon fermentation or will the boil somehow disovle it? Any advice would be appreciated.

My wife is on vacation for a week. I see a lot of brewing and beers this week... :mug:

I was planning to brew up a belgian blonde but my yeast I was planning to use didn't work out. What would a belgian blonde turn out like with Wyeast 3711 French Saison? I'm using this recipe: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f71/swmbo-slayer-belgian-blonde-26599/ Any thoughts or insight would...

I've now collected everything I need for my two tap kegerator and am about to put it all together. Should I be sanitizing the lines and taps before install? Maybe this is a silly question as I'm not going to be pouring draught for a few weeks yet. Any advice for a kegging newb would be...

I'm in the middle of a two tap kegerator build and am looking for some ideas on what to use for the tower. I don't want the usual crome one. I have a large brass artillary shell I may use back want some more ideas. Anyone done anything interesting?

Is it possible for an infection to just disappear? I had a batch of Graham's Dry English Cider that got an infection, shown by a white lace like patern on the top. I really felt bad about throwing away the batch so I kept the carboy of cider for another couple months. It is now clear as day...

Howdy all, Can anyone suggest any bars or stores for some good east coast beers in Springfield Mass? I'm heading there for two weeks for work. Any suggestions would be great. Thank you! :ban:

Okay, I just finished up my first batch using a wort chiller. That is seriously the best investment you can make. It took my chilling time on a five gallon batch down to under 15 minutes. Bought it on Learntobrew.com. Great deal and a great product. -werd:ban:

Happy Thanksgiving All, Last sunday I brewed up a batch of Nut Brown Ale. When it came time to top up my batch with water to compensate for what boiled off I filled it up to where I thought the five gallon mark was on my kettle. Today I decided to measure my kettle and it turns out I was...

I just drank the first glass from my first batch. It was very good and has alleviated all worries that I had for the past five weeks. :ban: One question though, when I opened the bottle ( a grolsch) it popped like a champagne bottle and foamed like crazy. Where did I do wrong here...

I brewed my IPA on Monday. The first day is churned and bubbled like mad. The past two days the gravity readings are steady at 1.010. What can I do here? It smells great but it seems to have no alcohol. Should I repitch? Any help would be appreciated. thanks :confused:

I have my first brew, an IPA, in the primary and it's fermenting nicely. I was told that it would need to be racked to the secondary and then I add my final hops. Here is my question: when do I rack it? When my gravity readings are stable? Any help here would be appreciated. Sorry if this...

Greetings All! I just signed up so I thought I would introduce myself. I have yet to brew my first batch but it's coming up soon! I hope I can learn a think or two from you all. Cheers! :mug:
