I have some Nottingham yeast that I washed from my Fat Tire clone. I had the idea of using washed beer yeast to make bread. I've made beer bread before, but beer yeast....? Thought it would be a fun little experiment. So on Saturday, with the help of SWMBO, I went to work. She uses dry yeast...

So last weekend I brewed a Liberty Cream Ale (extract) from Midwest Supplies. My original gravity was dead center of what the instructions said it was suppose to be (I don't have my notes in front of me so I don't remember what my OG was, but I know I was spot on). It sat 7 days in the primary...

I've been thinking about kegging for a while now. I'm not sure when I'll make the leap, but from reading off of HDT, everyone says when they went to kegging, they've never looked back. My question is, what all will I need? I have looked into the homebrew kegging kits on kegconnection.com but...

Question for someone who has brewed the Fat Tire clone from AHS. I brewed last Wednesday so it's been in the primary for 6 days. I plan on leaving it in there for at least another 4-7 days. I have not taken a SG reading since I don't planning on moving it yet. I'm just gonna give it some...

I am about 20 minutes into a mini mash kit from Austin Home Brewers. It is the Fatt Tire kit. I have not started the boil yet, I am still mashing/steeping, but I was reading through the directions and there are 3 kinds of hops and times listed: Target (bittering) @ 60 min (start), fuggle...

I am still fairly new to brewing, that I can admit. BUT, I recently brewed a beer that is probably one of the best that I myself have ever tasted. It has some amazing side affects. http://img.thesun.co.uk/multimedia/archive/00622/beer_goggles_622180a.swf Hope everyone has a great day!

OK, so I'm a NOOB and I can admit it. I am on my 3rd batch or beer overall, first Dunkelweizen. I have read through cold crashing topics and have a decent handle on how it's done. However....with my circumstances, I would like to try something different and have a couple questions to round out...

I got a tap a draft system for Christmas http://www.williamsbrewing.com/TAP_A_DRAFT_STARTER_SYSTEM_no_P729C120.cfm?UserID=3790545&jsessionid=d830e7d89be96c447742 Is there anyone out there that can give me some update advice and their thoughts on this system? I did a search and most of the...

I am repitching some yeast in my Dunkelweizen because I transferred it into my secondary too early (it is about 3/4 fermented but I still have to get my SG down a little). It has been in the secondary for 6 days and the SG hasn't moved at all so I was advised to try and repitch some yeast. It is...

I'm not sure if my beer is contaminated or just has yeast rafts. Does anyone have any pictures of yeast rafts?

New member and first time post! I am fairly new to brewing and I love it! I brewed two batches about a year ago (a honey ale and a red ale) and would like to start brewing on a more regular basis. I just brewed a new batch of beer and about 3 days ago I transferred it to my secondary. I am...
