Hey gang, So I've been using my spare keg to make seltzer since my wife loves flavored seltzer and I thought it was silly to buy bottles of seltzer when I have a perfectly good carbonation system sitting at home. It's also really nice during the summer and we go through 5 gallons pretty...

Hey All, I've been doing BIAB batches for a while and I was not satisfied with my temperature loss during the mash with my 1 layer of Reflectix "insulation". So being the architect/engineer/nerd that I am I decided to figure out how much insulation I actually need to only have a temperature...

Ok, so I was browsing Serious Eats today and ran across this article ( http://drinks.seriouseats.com/2013/12/new-coffee-equipment-precision-grinder-marco-undercounter-modbar-automated-brewing-bunn-trifecta.html ) about the state of coffee equipment in 2013. The article starts off talking about...

So my last batch was my first 10 gallon batch and I wanted to cool it down as quickly as possible. I had read Jamil's article on MrMalty.com about his whirlpool IC and was really impressed by how fast he said he was able to get down to pitching temps. However, I didn't want to spend money on a...

Hey, This is my first brew logo on my own (had one with my ex-roomates, had falling out, can't use old logo designed by roomate). It is the first draft of the logo, I only did it in an hour so its very rough. But the main idea is there. My opinion is that it is too flat looking and needs...

Hi, I racked my Belgian wit to secondary last Wednesday, and I went to check on it today and I found stuff growing on top. It looks like little colonies of bacteria. Its white spots with greasy looking rings around it. This the first time I have done a 2 stage fermentation and I'm not familiar...

My gf's dad who I am brewing with, aquired a case of 12 oz. Guiness bottles for bottling. I want to know if I wash them out really well is it ok to use them even though they have that widget inside?
