hey guys, My fiance loves Tropical ***** by Flying Dog brewery, cant find a clone recipe so I'm giving it a shot. Never attempted making my own clone recipe so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Their website describes the beer as follows. Pineapple and mango dominate with subtle...

THANK YOU! I feel like a huge idiot, I was using refractometer and this is my first beer I've brewed in almost 2 years and forgot about needing to correct once there's alcohol. Its fully fermented down to about 1.008. Wasted a pack of yeast and some time but I guess I won't forget that again.

Hey everyone, looking for some help. I brewed a double IPA(all grain) about 2 weeks ago OG 1.084. I used 2 packets of us-05 and rehydrated before pitching(first time i've used dry yeast). The first few days were kind of as expected seeing active fermentation, but not as active as expected. I...

drinking a hefeweizen i brewed early this year, found a lonely bottle in the back of the fridge. It was a nice surprise cause I thought I had killed them all off.:ban:

according to whitelabs website, they say that 1 tube of yeast is enough without a starter for a five gallon batch with an OG < 1.060. I still use a starter on every beer anyway just in case, but when i first started brewing i never made starters with whitelabs yeast and never had an issue

Hi all, I am new to the forums, but have been reading them since i started brewing a little over a year ago. I am doing a high gravity extract beer(5gal batch) with an estimated OG of 1.094. The recipe calls for White Labs Belgian ale #WLP550. I have been trying to figure out how much yeast I...
