    Too young to brew??

    When I was a teenager, the one thing that I wanted more than anything was to be treated like an adult. It's part of the coming of age process. In most European countries, since alcohol consumption is not considered "an adult thing" and kids begin drinking moderate amounts of alcohol by 13 -...

    heard a story once about oak chips and whisky...

    The amount of whisky that makes it into your fermenter won't be enough to hurt the yeast. You won't be dumping all of the whisky in, just the cubes you've soaked in it.

    In need of a crowd pleaser

    All of these suggestions are good, but remember the brewpub motto, "the amber ale will always sell." :mug:

    How to step up a starter?

    Not exactly. Remember that not all the yeast will flocculate and depending on the strain there could be quite a bit still in suspension. In this case, you are pouring off all the yeast in suspension so you'll wind up with less than you would if doing a full 2000ml starter. I halfway agree...

    Does anyone have a Budweiser clone???

    Beerthoven, I will not quit mocking Budweiser. It's really difficult to make a hamburger that tastes like McDonald's, but that doesn't mean that it's better than the one I make on my grill. Additionally, since when did this forum become a spot where you can't have a little fun. Quickly...

    Glass Cooktops

    I have a glass stove and did 3 gallon boils when I first started out. I was also using a 5 gallon pot and never had an issue. Granted, I only did 4 batches indoors before going all-grain on a propane burner outside, so this is probably not a valid sample size to determine the safety of brewing...

    Does anyone have a Budweiser clone???

    1. Drink a Pilsner Urquell. 2. Urinate in a bottle. 3. Hand it to your friends. :D

    Most overrated high priced beers

    I think it's important to realize that we wouldn't consider $10 per six-pack or $8 for a 750ml expensive for beer if it weren't compared to BMC for $4. That's like saying that a single handcrafted chocolate truffle at a local chocolatier isn't worth $1.50 because I can get a whole Hershey's bar...
