    Tricks to getting rid of that yeast flavor?

    How Much Money Is There To Be Saved?

    a 4 pack cost me about 10$ at the store, so when i can bring the price down to about 1$ per 12 ounce serving, its not bad, but im also leaving out the cost of water, propane and ice for chilling wort.

    Anyone in Miami or South Florida?!?!?

    Brew Box is a good store, i found it a few months ago and have pretty much stopped ordering from online stores. Being able to get fresh yeast that hasnt had to sit in a hot truck for days is great. Also they help with recipes and their suggestions are generally very good. I know as of this week...

    Austin Homebrew is the best

    I had a fraud on my card too, someone was trying to charge 800$ in Spain, and they had to cancel my card since it was compromised. I had to go in before work to the bank and get a new one, but not before waiting 2 weeks as they investigated the fraud, so i had to keep writing my self checks to...

    Lagering at 41 F? Frozen lager question...

    Ive frozen a lager of mine, well it slushed like yours did and it still turned out great. i stopped worrying about trying to get mine down to 36f or so after that. let it ferment at 50 or so, then bring it to 40f, dont worry too much about going so low, it will still be delicious in the end.

    Anything You Wish You had Known

    Keep a 5 gallon bucket filled half way with water and sanitizing solution(i use the one that came with my first kit) so that way you can dunk everything you need to in there for a quick rinse. Or let stuff sit in there till its needed. Ive done this and it makes life a lot easier if you lay your...

    Priming a lager in a keg

    I want to naturally carb a munich helles in my keg before hooking it up to my kegerator. My question is, what temp should i let it condition at? The temp its been lagering at, or room temp(which is upper 70's, im in FL) I could adjust my fridge to be 55 or so, but not sure if that would be too...
