    Ordered Oud Bruin Ingredients from NB, Changed my mind

    I decided that after I had already ordered this ingredient kit (with the Roeselare yeast blend) from Northern Brewer that I don't feel like waiting for a sour beer and I'd rather use the existing ingredients, swap the yeast blend at my LHBS for another strain (probably Wyeast 3522 Ardennes), and...

    Anyone else have really thirsty friends?

    So I'm 26 and live with two roommates. We have friends over regularly and still consume quite a lot of beer. Since I started brewing again, it's started to hit my wallet. 10 gallons was done in about 2 weeks. I'm glad to have a little help drinking some of the beer so I can continue to brew new...

    Fell asleep on couch, boil went 6 hours

    On a scale from 1 to full-on idiot, I would say this one scored pretty high. I fell asleep yesterday on the couch, and my 6.5 gallon boil reduced down to 1-2 gallons before I woke up. Since it was 1:30 AM, I turned off the burner, put the lid on the pot, and went to bed. Its still sitting...

    Amber/Copper Color from Vienna SMaSH

    Hey guys, Was trying to think through making an ordinary bitter with just Vienna malt, and wanted to get some ideas on how to get a copper color from it as well as some caramel notes. Here's my two ideas so far: 1. Toast 2 of the 8 lbs of Vienna in the oven at 350 for 10-20 minutes 2...

    DIY False Bottom. Where to get mesh?

    I've been losing almost a gallon every batch because I use an auto siphon and don't want to suck up cold break. My bk is a 10 gallon tamale steamer, so it has a rolled bead for a steaming rack to rest. My only obstacle is I'm not sure where to source this small amount of fine mesh. Any thoughts?

    Have an old pain all N2 tank, can I use it for Beergas?

    I've got a compressed air tank I used when I was into paintball. Looks like this. Can I use this for a nitrogen draught set up with a stout faucet? I know indeed to get a new regulator, but could I use this bottle?

    So I currently have 5 pin lock kegs, three of them go into my keezer and connect to my 3 tap tower. My buddy works for a beer and wine broker and recently brought me a nice ball lock keg from their warehouse for free. He said that if nobody claims the others that are still there (4 of them)...

    Water quality report for OKC

    I can't seem to find a report for the city that includes the details that are needed for homebrewing, only the percentage of contaminates. Does anyone have a report from here? http://www.okc.gov/water/service/forms/waterqualityreport.aspx This is the link to the report that isn't so useful

    No room in keezer for 10lb tank, 2 5 lb tanks?

    Trying to search for this is a keyword nightmare, so I will just ask. I don't quite have enough room in my keezer to fit a 10lb tank. Is buying another 5lb tank a viable solution so that I can go longer in between fills? I currently only have one keg at a time tapped, and I'm wanting to have...
