    Cereal Killer setting for BIAB?

    What does everyone use for a gap setting on the Cereal killer mill? I have one on the way, just wanna know the more popular settings. Now I should seek out a corded drill, probably harbor freight :)

    Ritebrew West coast style Pale Ale

    While searching for cheaper extract places online, I stumbled upon ritebrew. I decided on their West Coast style Pale Ale, and ingredients for another beer. Never dry-hopped so I though a Pale Ale might be a good place to start. Well, its been in the bottle since before memorial day, and...

    back to back Kolsch brewing saturday!

    Well, Brewmasters warehouse came through, mostly, and I get to have a back to back brew session Saturday with my younger brother. 2 batches of Kolsch :) I ordered the same recipe I bought last year from Northern Brewer, and saved a bunch of money. They forgot half the hops, but I have someone...

    Beer going stale fast?

    I have been brewing a year and a half now and have noticed a few things. My homebrew taste GREAT when its fresh, I get compliments, family loves it. However I have noticed that my beer starts to degrade quickly after the 6 week in bottle mark. I keep it in our basement, but that is 70 degrees in...

    Kolsch tips...

    I ordered the Northern Brewer Kolsch Extract kit, with Wyeast Kolsch liquid yeast. This will be my first time using liquid, and I don't really have the means to make a starter. Can I pitch just the smack pack and get good results? I have used mostly US-05 so far, which works amazing, never an...

    NB Sierra Madre Kit.

    I brewed this kit back in early august after I finished my Fermentation chamber. It has been in bottle a week and a half now, I tried one Sunday that tasted overly sweet, I don't think carbonation was allowed enough time... I am drinking my second now, and WOW is it coming along very nicely...

    Sierra Nevada Torpedo

    I bought a mixed 6-pack today from a locally owned grocery store chain (Wegmans), they have their own "create your own" 6 pack for $9.99. I tried to mostly pick beers I want to try but was not sure I wanted to have a whole 6 pack of, and some that were normally $10 or more/6 anyway. One beer was...

    Finally brewing again! Sierra Madre kit :)

    Well, I havn't brewed a batch since beginning of June, due to basement temps being in the 70's, and I prefer to ferment in the low 60's max. I have since built a fermentation chamber (took me a while to finally do it) and today is the first nice day this week. So, I decided to finally get the NB...

    Cooperstown Brewing...

    Anyone else here had any of Cooperstown Brewing beers? I have so far had Nine Man Ale (Golden ale), Old Slugger (Pale Ale), and currently drinking a Pride of Milford (strong red ale-delicious!). My mother got a 12 pack off a TV auction the local public channel puts on, and boy, is it some...
