I just brewed an all grain red ale. It's in the primary. My son in law asked me about making a raspberry ale. Thinking about adding two or three pounds of fresh, clean, sanitized raspberries to the secondary before I racked the red ale on top of them. Let it set for two or three weeks. Has...

I have about a 1 1/4" bar now. As I turn up the speed, it get slung out of the center. Any advice?:confused:

Found this stirplate on Ebay, $26.00 + shipping. I'm looking forward to getting it. I have made several starters, but have never had a stirplate to keep it mixed up.

[/IMG] A friend of mine used to have a night club. He shut it down around 7 years ago. I was telling him I was looking for an old chest freezer to use as a fermentation temp control locker. He told me he had an old three keg, kegerator / fridge that had not been used since he shut downhis...

Thinking about getting a grain mill. What do you think about the Barley Crusher?

Used a fine mesh bag over my kettle return line. Took off my SS braid and pumped the pellet hops out after the boil through the kettle pick up through the pump back to the kettle into the straining bag. Worked like a charm. All the hops were filtered out and it was easy to pump through my CFC...

I acquired a nice oxygen tank / regulator / flow meter. I made a throughmomerter out of 1/2" copper pipe coming out of my CFC. In the end of it I put a Oxygen port. The port sticks into the inside of the copper pipe. I drilled about 16 #57 holes in the port. I hope this will release the oxygen...

I had made some modifications to my boil kettle manifold. I fashioned a figure eight out of my 3/4" SS mesh. I also soldered the joints instead of trying to use a slit with a SS clamp. This worked great. Was able to pump almost all of the wort out of the boil kettle. I brewed a 5 gallon batch...

I've been working on this system for a couple of months. Nice Scottish 80.... HERMS 50' 1/2" copper coil. Enjoying a nice Porter while I'm brewing.

Ok, I brewed a partial mash Sunday, California common with WLP810 added after cooling and aerating the wort. The yeast has best before date of Jan 16,07. I had left it out overnight to warm to room temp. I know the date was a little less than a month past the best date. Does this usually...

Not new to brewing, but new to this forum. Well, I've been brewing for around a year now. Extract / partial mash. I still consider myself a novice. I am currently building a HERMS system out of 3 converted kegs. I can't wait till I get it ready and adjusted. Its been quite a journey! I...
