Hi, I am brewing a pumpkin ale recipe, and I was going to transfer to a secondary and adding a hit of allspice after 7 days for clearing. Unfortunately my work decided to send me to Virginia on the 6th day, and I wont return and be able to transfer it until day 14. I wanted to clear and...

I used this recipe: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f65/irish-red-1st-place-hbt-comp-141086/ cut in half, and the local brew store didn't have american ale II, so I used american ale I. Everything went smoothly, but I made an error pitching the yeast. I used my therminator and cooled...

I was considering buying the brew-magic fermenter in 7.75 and 15.5 gal, does anyone have comments on these fermenters? I did a search and really didn't find many threads on the cons about these fermenters. Thanks

Hi all, I brewed a Irish red ale on 1/21/2012 Fermented 4 weeks at 64 degrees, in chest freezer. Took gravity readings, 1.013 week 4, 1.013 3 days later Transferred to Keg on 2/21/2012 Applied 12 psi at 40 degrees for 1 week, 15 psi at 50 for a few days and tried a pint after...

Is conditioning at 64 degrees going to hurt the carbonation of my beer, as opposed to carbonating at 70 degree, is the 6 degrees to much? I just have them in the same fermenting chamber as one of my buckets fermenting. Should I bring the temp of the freezer up to 69? My bucket is several...

I get all into what I'm doing and forget to add the priming solution before I siphon into the bottling bucket. :mad: When I did that to my last batch, I stirred a few minutes and I still had some bottles with no carbonation!

Hi, I travel to Chincoteague/Wallop's Island several times a year for work. Wondering if anyone has recommendations on places to visit to try some good craft beers. Thanks

As I was sitting freaking out about how to keep my blow-off tube from popping out of the star-san solution over and over I noticed the solution was directly in front of me! Does anyone else use a second rubber stopper on the end of there blow-off tube to weight the end of the tube in your...

I've read threw several threads, but not seeing the answer I want. If you know of a thread link it please, My question is when making your started most threads say to use DME, if I am using LME for my actual wort should I use LME for the starter? or just find DME to match the LME? For example...

Does anyone just put the temperature probe in with a normal lid? Instead of drilling a hole in the freezer (bad) or having to put a collar on it? Thanks

Cool Mini fridge beer cannon - YouTube I didn't do it, but it seems simple enough, if you know java to make the app.

Took the FG of my first Pale ale, .002 off, but I think thats ok. I also took a sip from the cylinder... didn't taste half bad. I could taste some off flavors but I will bottle tomorrow. It was in a primary for 7 days, secondary for 14 days. Hooah

Got home from work today to find a 13 cu. ft chest freezer my fiancee bought me from Lowes. Fermentation chamber! exciting. I brewed a New castle clone on 12/29/2011. It started fermenting at 69F/70F. I know thats a bit high and may have produced some byproducts, do you think it will help to...

The first two weeks were not as bad but the anticipation is killing me. I find myself checking my fermenter almost every 5 hours! My plan was to wait three weeks but I almost can't handle it anymore I'm going to pop off my airlock and poor unconditioned beer all over myself! I made another...

I didn't realize fluorescent light could have the same effect as sunlight on the fermenter. I have a fluorescent light in the kitchen, and it was shining on the top corner of my carboy for a few hours a day the past few days. The light source is about 25' away from my carboy and only hits...

After I started my first brew then completed John Palmer's "How To Brew" I realized I made so many mistakes I had to get another batch fermenting ASAP... so I tried a Newcastle brown ale clone My LHBS had a clone recipe I wanted to try out: 7 lb pale malt extract 4 oz. Crystal Malt 40L 4...

I searched the forums to see if it has been done but I have not seen anything. Has anyone made a homebrew system that can be controlled VIA Xbee communications? This way you don't need internet/router to control your system. And Xbee is very open sourced. Just wondering if anyone has notes...

Hey, I made a 25' IC today and used it. May I say they are awesome, 220 degree wort to 78 in 14.5 mins. Now how do I dry my coil and vinyl tubing out? I used the search option and I either am.not using the proper keywords or there is nothing on drying the coil out. Any tips would be...
