Do you think I should sanitize the fruit and then juice the seeds in a sanitized container, or will the yeasties be aggressive enough to get through the shell of the pomegranate seeds?

Read this thread ages ago. It was my second brew after the one that came with my kit. Has there been any significant revisions/improvements/changes?

Anyone ever see/taste/make a good pomegranate beer? I have a tree and so many go to waste because we can't eat them all when they get ripe.

Thanks everyone. Sounds like the Requiem Raspberry will be a winner.

What recipe would you recommend for this? I'm not much of a wheat beer fan (I like porters, stouts and Belgian strong ales), so fruit brewing is not my forte.

Surprisingly enough you can still drink. She is doing it for a milk bank for premature babies who have to stay in the NICU. You are allowed 2 drinks per day. So she wants the hops, but also wants me to cover up the taste if possible....I know....she's a rookie.

She is forcing it down because she needs the hops. I'm just trying to make it a little more palatable for her. She had a blueberry beer a couple weeks ago that she really enjoyed, but I wasn't with her so I don't know what it was......

Can anyone help me with finding a beer my wife will drink? Long story short, she hates beer, but the hops really helps with breastmilk production. I love beer and figure this is my best chance to convert her to the dark side. She wants sweet and fruity, but I have no experience in this field...

So I don't have to worry about boil-off volumes? I thought because I'm working with half the amount, that I would need to add more wort to accommodate the same boil off. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Hey everyone, Fairly new to brewing and I haven't done a batch in almost a year.... I want to do a half batch of this and I was wondering if I just take the original recipe and cut everything in half. Any tips are appreciated.

Quick question for you all. Is there an "easy" way to make my ferm chamber dual zone? I have a freezer hooked up to my chamber and it's big enough for 2 buckets/carboys with a divider in the middle. My thinking was that if I installed a fan in the lower corner of the divider I could blow cold...

Hey Revvy, what are the screw clamp connectors used for? Is that what's coming out of the side of the box?

So I also see that most people use an STC 1000 for temperature control. Is there a dummy's guide on how to wire this bad boy up? I'm not an electrician, so some idiot-proof instructions would be awesome.

Does anyone put this in a secondary, or just crash in the primary?

My apologies on the "cubit foot". It was not my intention to use an ancient unit of measurement....
