I brewed my first all grain biab which the OG was 1.047 so I pitched one packet of safeale 05 dry right on top of the cooled wort (76f). It started fermington in about 5 hours and went slow in the airlock unlike my last brews. It has been 9 days and beer has cleared out pretty but the airlock is...

I opened up my keezer today to pull an almost empty keg to take to a buddies house tomorrow and found mold on the rubber portion on 2 of my kegs out of 3 that was not there a week or so ago. These kegs have been in there for months. What causes this? I wiped the portion down with a lysol wipe.

I am brewing my first all grain BIAB on monday and need a little help from my fellow brewers. I am brewing a blonde with some applewood smoked 2 row.

Today im trying my first full boil of a Zombie Dust partial mash clone today.

I have been brewing about 9 months now and my first few batches were good. Now my last 4 im not that happy with, off flavors, mouthfeel, and seem not to be fizzy , sorry about that last one. Bock - good Blonde - good Pale ale - great Porter - great Ipa - great Golden ale - not so good Porter -...

Well im still new to brewing and I did a mini mash porter and it is not right. It was in primary for 7 days, secondary for 14 days. Then it went to the keg (which is my first time kegging) . The color is right, smell is right, but the flavor is a weird sweet flavor and no maltyness. I know the...

I am trying my first shot at carbing my porter I brewed. I set the pressure in the keg to 12psi on 10/9 @ 38deg. Then I dropped it to 9psi 4 days later because I read that is about what the porter at that temp should be done at. I had to turn my keezer off for about 6 days and raised the...

My wit I brewed and pitched 9 days ago is still bubbling every 10 to 30 seconds. I am using a blow off as it blew off my air lock in the first 48. What do I do? Move to secondary, cool down to slow yeast, or just wait. I have not taken a hydro reading since it has been going. Sorry for noob ...

Well I got tired of bottling my brews so Im building my keezer. Im starting with a 7.2 frigid. I got it.from lowes that was a mis order for $94. I plan on running 3 5gal cornys and 1 3gal. I have my 3 keg setup ready with a 5lb co2 system on a manifold. I will add a barb to put in the 3gal when...

I need to turn off my keezer to install my fan, and mount my towers. I have my porter carbing in it. Will it hurt anything if I let it warm up for a few days? Is there anything I need to do? Thanks

Well It is my first time for my airlock to blow off and blow klausen all over the wall. It happened probably mid day today as I checked on it at 10 and again at 6 when I found beer all over my wall. I put a hose in a bomber bottle filled with water what are my chances my beer will be fine?

I started brewing about a year ago and have always done partial mash brews from Ahs. I have had good luck hitting close to my og numbers, but the last brew I did came from a different place and the instructions called for a 90min mash vs my old 45min mash. It called for more sparge water instead...
