Massachusetts has a fairly new brewery located out of Ipswich, MA. Notch Brewing has the mindset that we need more session ales and they should never be lacking in flavor. I recently had their Notch Session Ale and loved the aromas coming from the hops. I want to create a recipe based on this...

I'm constantly reading brewing books, new techniques, old techniques to brush up. I came to the conclusion recently that I'd like to brew more beers with adjuncts. I decided to dive into fruit and oak. I have a few questions to bounce off you guys... I was thinking Cherries and Medium Toasted...

So I've made the move to All-Grain and that's almost all I'm doing now. I have one recipe that still uses extract so I'm looking to convert it. Here's what I came up with, I'm wondering if you guys can take a look at it and tell me if it looks right. 5 Gallon Batch Extract 6.6 lbs. Munton's...

So I'm finally getting into al-grain brewing. I've done all my research, read multiple books, watched quite a few videos. One thing that I can't get a complete grasp around is batch sparging. I see some people add a gallon of hot water to the mash with 5-10 minutes left, I see some people never...

I picked up Radical Brewing about a month ago and I'm planning on brewing my first recipe from this book this weekend. Now if you have the book you are familiar with the fact that Mosher doesn't include step-by-step directions for any of the recipes, he gives you the basic information and that...

So I've been brewing for a bit now, short in comparison to many of you, but I think it's time for a logo and name. I dable in graphic design and have designed quite a few things in the past for others, but for some reason my own project is stumping me the most. For a name I was thinking...
