I have been searching for a recipe for St. Ambroise Oatmeal Stout. Apparently there is a recipe for it in this book. I have read some pretty poor reviews of the book, and am hesitant to buy it. If someone could post this recipe, I would be grateful. edit = Found, thanks!

Hey all, I could use your help with this problem. As soon as I open the valve on my CO2 tank, gas rush outs from a tiny hole right above the pressure set screw on the main housing of the regulator. This just starting happening . I actually did not even touch it. I have pushed 4 kegs...

So I had a batch of beer become infected, I decided to keg it anyway to see just how bad it would be. The strange thing is that although it is certainly sour, there are times that I actually kind of enjoy it. Do you think this is me just being stubborn and refusing to throw out a batch...

So I did my first AG batch today, and well let's just say there were some challenges. I decided to do make it an 11 gallon batch. I figured that the keggle would just be wasted otherwise. The plan was to get the mash water heating by 11:00 am. Once the flame was on the kettle, I began...

So after 14 batches without an infection, I cracked opened my primary tonight and was greted by a stanky-a$$ smell, and a small layer of bacterial growth. As per advice read countless of times, I racked the beer from under the infection. As I wasn't planning a secondary for this batch, I...

I just finished up a batch of Irish Stout, and swmbo is on her way home from her 'high school girlfriends only' Christmas party. After getting off the phone with her, I realised that I am a bit druck!

It occurred to me recently that I may be missing on some HBT content because I usually 'browse' the forum through the 'new post' function or the 'my replies' function. Rarely do I actually go to the individual forums to see what has been posted. What do you do?

I am in the process of putting together my kegerator. I bought a used Danby kegerator and am converting it for use with cornies. I have bought a ceramic tower to replace the single faucet tower that the unit came with. The kegerator has a nicely finished hole for feeding the beer lines...

In Canada beer may be a lifesytle, but Hockey is a religion! Anyone interested in joining a hockey pool? I doubt the interest will be that high (considering hockey's demise in the US), but we could make the stakes interesting enough that even if a few of us participated it would be worth...

Obviously it is impossible to partcipate in a brew swap with our American brothers and sisters, but are there any Canadians here interested in starting a brew swap? :tank:

I cam across this posting on ebay. Seems to be a jerry-rigged jockey box. http://cgi.ebay.ca/Beer-Coil-Pump-Budweiser-Tap-Handle-Keg-Insert-NR_W0QQitemZ130149211661QQihZ003QQcategoryZ67138QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I will be coming to Seattle for a weekend at the end of the month and am looking for some information on where to buy some good US brews. I will be staying at a hotel on University Blvd. I would prefer a retail store close to where I am staying where I can pick up some distinctly American...

I have brewed a few PM hoppy pale ales in a row now (snpa clones, etc.), and when tasting them at the 2 week point of bottle conditioning, they are amazing. The hop flavour and aroma just blows me away. They are as close to a perfect beer as I can imagine brewing. The problem is that at...

I have been having trouble hitting my target gravities in my partial mashes so have decided to use some simple math to help me out (my teachers were right, math is useful). Does the following seem right? Is there a simpler formula? My partial mash yields ~3 gallons of wort. So If I were...

This was my third partial mash batch, and because of low efficiency on my previous two, I decided to add more extract. I hit better efficiency this time though and have ended up with a german hefeweizen with an OG of 1.068. Yeast is Wyeast 3638. I have a couple of questions..... Will...

I know better than to even ask SWMBO, but if I was single I would have jumped on this find in a second. http://vancouver.craigslist.org/bfs/356742298.html

Well after four extract + specialty grain brews, I am trying a partial mash of 6 lbs of grain. It seems like it should be pretty straight forward, but if anyone has any comments let them fly. Recipe: batch size: 6 gallons (23 litres) - canadian eh... boil volume: 4 gallons 5 lbs...
