    Texas Hundreds of free bottles near Austin, TX

    I'm moving out of state and not taking all of my bottles with me. If you want to come get them they're yours. I am in Manor, just east of Austin, TX on 290. Haven't put them all together to count but 5-10 cases of bottles some clean, some not; some with labels, some without; mostly brown...

    I used two yeasts, what's going to happen?

    First of all, I know, RDWHAHB. I intend to drink the result, and I think it will still be quite good, I just am curious what people think will happen. I made a quick batch of EdWort's Apfelwein. I haven't brewed since my son was born 6 months ago, so I want to get something quick and easy...

    Krombacher Pils?

    I had Krombacher Pils for the first time a few nights ago and it was GREAT! Such a great clean hop crispness. Two questions: 1. The bottle was marked Krombacher Pils and said "Ale" at the bottom of the label. Is this really made with an ale yeast? 2. I have scoured the forum for recipes...

    Malted white wheat instead of flaked?

    Have an AG recipe I am making, and instead of flaked wheat, I accidentally bought white wheat. This is 2 1/2 pounds of a 9 pound grain bill. How will using the regular wheat instead of the flake affect me? All my grains are milled and bagged together, should I go pick up some flake to add to...

    Botched a Belgian Dubbel, should I add fruit?

    Hey all, I was making a big belgian dubbel, kind of similar to a Chimay white. Long story short I missed all my targets. The starting SG was way low and it finished pretty dry. It's not nearly flavorful enough, sort of just a nondescript dark brown ale. There's nothing wrong with it, no...

    Water sitting in aluminum pot, now bumps

    I bought a new aluminum pot with good thick walls for doing split boils and doing full boils when I get a new burner. I tested it on my stove to see how much water it could boil and what the weight limit of my burners might be. I brought some water to a boil and boiled for 45 minutes. So far...

    AHS Session Kits?

    Just saw the "session" section of kits on AHS's page a couple of days ago. The product descriptions are all the same for each kit, and not overly informative. The prices though are enticing. $25.49 extract, $18.49 for all grain before yeast. Anyone know what is going on with these kits? Has...

    Widening the pipeline

    So I've been lurking around here quite a bit, reading a lot but not posting much. I'm a new brewer with 3 batches under my belt (a witbier, a milk stout, and a hoppy American brown ale, all three were extract with steeping grains). For the most part I brew, long primary, bottle, then a few...

    Fermenting in bottling bucket... To rack or not to rack?

    I am brewing my first batch with my own setup (I have been brewing with a friend), and currently I only have a 7gal bottling bucket and a 5 gal glass carboy. The bottling spigot didn't have any leaks, so I am currently brewing an AHS Belgian White in my bottling bucket. I am hoping to bottle...

    Brewing Austinite

    Hi everybody! My name is Jordan and I live just outside of Austin TX. I've brewed with a home brewer friend up in Waco a few times, and was waiting for the money to start up on my own. A great Craigslist deal came up, and now my first beer, a Belgian Wit from an AHS mini mash kit, has been...

    When to add orange peel and coriander

    Hi, I have been lurking here for a while, but now I am brewing my first beer on my own. It is an AHS Belgian White Beer mini-mash kit. The instructions tell me to add the bitter orange peel and coriander with the flavoring hops in the last 10 minutes... However, what I have seen a lot of here...
