I'd be interested in your hop blocker. Let me know what your looking for.

I recently picked up a 10g Blichmann Boilerkettle off of craigslist. I thought it would help me out with my brew days but at this point I'm mostly confused. I currently have the 10g Blichmann, a 10g Home Depot round mash tun, and a stainless steel pot (probably about 8g). Here are my...

FYI. I made a Rosemary IPA previously and put about 1oz of rosemary in the boil in the last 15 minutes which gave it a solid but not over powering rosemary flavor. Rosemary is tough b/c it can take over the flavor of anything, so I think a possibility for this recipe would have been to do a...

Thanks for the advice. I realized the IBU's were high for the style, but according to my BeerSmith calcs I was right on the edge (maybe a little high for style) As for the brew day, I started this morning and I had a stuck mash that was a total mess. My steel braid gave me problems last time...

I chose to bitter at 45 for no good reason, i just wanted to see what would happen. The bittering is apollo, so its not all simcoe. i also was trying to keep the ibu's down a little and not take it out of style, and pushing the bittering to 45 minutes dropped the ibu's into APA style guidelines.

My first recipe that I've fully designed myself. I used Beer Smith to put the build together and decided on the hops because I was given some Simcoe and Apollo. What do you guys think? Pale Ale 0.50 oz Burton Water Salts (Mash 60.0 mins) 9 lbs Pale Malt (2 Row) US 1 lbs...

I just put together my mash tun this weekend and ran into a few problems. Maybe some of you have faced similar problems or maybe I'm missing something. Right now the tun is sitting with water in it and I'm praying that the leaks have been sealed up. Problem Description: I went with...

i'm still working on mine, i have some hidden pages with some detailed info for my own personal use that i worked on, in fact i havent officially picked a name for the brewery, but i put together a site anyway so i have something to keep track of my recipes, etc. MoMo Brewing Co...

i went to a dive casino/brewery about a block off the stip called Ellis Island Casino/Brewery (http://www.ellisislandcasino.com/). I ended up having a great time. I fed a few bucks into the video poker machine and ordered all of their beers. As it was Vegas I don't have a 100% recollection of...

Stella has an unquestionable skunky flavor to it. The majority of people i find drinking it (without sounding too pompous or opinionated) are people that have never had good beer but have more money than the typical Bud drinker. I'm always so sad for the drinker when i see someone spending...

I know there is a movement towards canned beer in the craft scene but i have not been a fan so far. Sly Fox seems to do a decent job on their canned product but the others that i've had, specifically six point, have been disappointing and have had an unquestionable metallic taste to them (if...

black and tan is a solid beer. their light lager is a solid substitute for miller/bud light if you need it for a party. due to the laws in PA most purchases of beer have to be by the case. while most of the yuenling brands are decent and reasonably priced (around $20), i dont find the value...
