    I like the American wheat idea. Every Budlight drinker I know seems to like a "wheat beer". It's all Boulevard Unfiltered Wheat around here.

    wurt chilling

    I just bought a new brew pot (made of stainless steal and an aluminum and magnetic steel bottom) anyway, it says on the side not to rapidly change its temperature b/c it may cause warping. however I used to always submerge my brewpot (full of wort) in an ice pot to rapidly cool. do you think it...

    first batch bottled,hell yea

    Congrats on your first beer! In "Joy of Home Brewing" Papazian explains that part of a hangover is due to a lack of the Vitamin B complex (among dehydration and maybe others?), and because the yeast in home brew create the Vitamin B complex home brew actually replenishes your body's losses...

    Conditioning temp. for a lager

    After bottling should I condition my steam beer at the same temperature as I fermented at (about 49F)? what will yield the best result?

    Need suggestions to formulate IPA recipe from LME

    I read somewhere that since it is almost like hop extract in those kits it will ad the bitterness but not so much the aroma or flavor. so it might not be a bad idea to add a aroma/flavor hop like cascade. you can also ask you LHBS and they should be able to tell you for sure. Happy Brewing!

    Pear ale

    I was thinking about it the other day and thought a pear ale could be a tasty creation, however I wasn't really sure how many pears I would need to use and when I should add them. I've heard that adding them to the secondary is a good time. I guess I was just thinking about adding the pears to a...

    Trying a 90 min clone

    I also put plastic wrap over the the mouth of my carboy and apply preasure to the opening (as to not let anything spill out) then I turn it on it's side and roll it around for a long time maybe 10-15min. this seems to do the trick. have a good brew!
