    Fermentation Chamber Question

    I recently picked up a old beat up fridge off CL and I wanted to build up a fermentation chamber. I built up the ebay aquarium temp controller build yesterday and that's working just fine. I'm debating what to use as a heating source though. Here's the catch. I live in Northern Idaho and...

    Whatchagot IPA

    So I wanted to brew today and here's what I got in the grain store for what I wanted to brew. I looked through what I had for hops and I remembered I had some Citra in there and I've never used them before.

    Growth in a bottle

    I wanted to alleviate some fears of mine (and my wifes as she tried a sip). I bottled my Belgian Wit to bottles last week and today I threw my first into the fridge. It tasted nice and light with a very carbonated start to the glass. I poured out the first half (22oz) and it was great. But when...

    Could it really be done?

    I have my Second batch of beer in my primary fermentor right now a Belgian Wit. What my question is this. I just took a hydrometer reading and it came back with 1.012 which is the desired Finishing Gravity. Initial thoughts is awesome it's done; however, I brewed it on Sunday. It's only been...

    Neurotic New Brewer

    I was wondering on a few things. I started brewing last week and for the first 3-4 days my airlock was going nuts.. but now nothing is happening on the airlock. I did go out of town so the temperature might have crawled up to 70 to 71 degrees where I was fermenting. So my question is did I...
