    Uh oh - stay fresh boiled

    Unbelievable! Brew day goes well. Brew buddy removed the five Stay Fresh packets from the foil vac pack. Half pound of Centennial whole leaf hops into the mesh bag. Boil. Clean-up. Dumped out the hop bag and out comes packet #6, damn! Boiled for 10 mins in a 10gal batch. Is the...

    Autumn Seasonal Beer Punkin' Ale

    As I am on the patio brewing a Dirty Bastard clone, I began to think about the upcoming fall (ugh, where did summer go?) and this recipe came back to mind. One of my favs as it starts to cool off. What are anyones thoughts on this: make a "bigger" version of the pumpkin (to Southern Tiers...

    Difference in flavors between bottling and kegging?

    Made a Belgian Wit with orange peel. Bottled half and force carbed half the batch in a keg. Any thoughts as to why I make have gotten very different flavors between the two? The keg is very smooth, pleasant and easily drinkable. Whereas each bottle Ive opened has been very tart, almost sour...

    Brewing/Bar Area Build

    You need to think about your brew-day logically. Water and drain are the hardest to move or possibly add (do you want your bar "wet"?), whereas the 220 is easy to route to where you need it. If you don't want to pay for software, I'd suggest getting some graph paper. Sounds like kids stuff...

    Coffin cooling question...

    Still undecided about how to cool the coffin part of my keezer. I've purchased a couple of fans, a 4" (with dryer hose) to draw cold air up from the bottom of the freezer and a 3" to return back into the chest. Has anyone just cut a hole in the lid to match the inside size of the coffin...

    Keggle Design

    I am at the same point you are. The best advice that I can give now, from what I've researched and viewed is this: If there is a chance you're going to brew smaller batches (5 gal) with this setup, make sure that the ports (temp, pickup, etc.) are LOW enough. Five gallons of liquid is not very...

    Mill Motor RPM

    I have completed a very similar project ... https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/motorized-grain-mills-time-show-them-off-159950/index17.html I used a 2" on the motor and 7" on the mill. This should give about 550-600 from a 1725 motor. (WOW, I thought my 1/2h farm duty was overkill, 3/4? Look...
