I used carb tablets so they are pretty uniform. They are nicely carbed but a little on the flat side. They sat @ 65 DEG for 6 weeks. Im going to give it a shot.

Hi, So I just brewed my first beer, AHS Dry Stout, and it is amazing!!! Absolutely delicious, However it is a little flat for my taste. I was wondering if I purchased a soda siphon and filled it with my half carbed stout if I could use it do have a nicely carbed beer?

Hi, I was just wondering whether your should "smack" a wyeast smack-pack when its a room temp or cold when its just out of the fridge?

I don't know if this will be bad for the fridge but you could buy a house light timer for ~10 dollars and plug the fridge into it. Set the fridge for the coldest temp and set the timer to only run for 30 min a day. The fridge should stay below 80 degrees but not by much. It would run and cool...

Ok so I was playing around a little more and came up with this. I'm not sure I could do the crest with the ship bursting out but I'm gonna give it a try.

Hi, So I finally decided on the name for my nano brewery. Three Sheets Brewery. So I had some free time and drew up some potential logos. Dont hold back tell me what you think. All of the elements I can change around (ie. skull & cross bones, star wind drawing, and sails.) Fonts can be...
