    Table Arm Mount for Electric Brewing Controller?

    Hi all, I've been searching for an arm mount for the electric controller for my brewing setup. I'd like something that clamps to the stainless steel table, and just raises the controller up so it's more easily accessible. Something similar to a computer monitor mount, but a bit more heavy duty...

    Mash Efficiency Correlation to Boil Off

    Hey All, Had a weird occurrence happen last weekend, and I'm curious what might be the cause... We brew all grain with 3 kettles (HLT, Mash, Boil). We had what I believe was a really efficient mash. Everything hit at all the right moments, and things felt good. Then the boil hit, and we...

    Anyone ever tried sharing your homebrews with followers on your social media?

    Yeah that was our thinking as well. Just a free beer. No strings attached.

    Anyone ever tried sharing your homebrews with followers on your social media?

    So we post a lot about our beers on Instagram and we get a good amount of interest from people messaging/commenting asking if they can try it. For our immediate friends, it's a no brainer, we share beer all the time. However, we started thinking "why not just offer to share with random...

    Anyone ever hear rumors that hop suppliers will falsely label hops?

    Got in touch with them today. the customer support rep basically echoed what you're saying here. They ran too many bags through the filler for one hop (Hersbrucker), took the extra empty bags and re-ran them through the filling process for the new hop(hallertau blanc), and they were relabelled...

    Anyone ever hear rumors that hop suppliers will falsely label hops?

    Actually I may be able to buy from the local store! That completely didn't occur to me! Thanks! Generally we don't get hops from them because they only carry 1oz bags. I typically go to YVH, but they were out of Hallertau Blanc this time so I went elsewhere online. Perhaps we'll need to put our...

    Anyone ever hear rumors that hop suppliers will falsely label hops?

    Yeah, I'm gonna give them a call tomorrow. I'd like to see what they say/do before I go blasting them on the internet, so I'll update this thread once I hear back. I'm taking pics of the label as well for proof, but I'm not going to upload any pics until I know more.

    Anyone ever hear rumors that hop suppliers will falsely label hops?

    In one of my local homebrew supply stores a few months back, someone had mentioned a rumor that some online outlets for hops will sell less popular hops as a different hop. Popular hops will sell out quick, and they'll just relabel other hops and keep selling them. Cut to yesterday, we're...

    We created a ridiculous spreadsheet for Wort Correction - Feel free to poke holes in it

    Hello all, My brewing friends and I created a spreadsheet originally intended to calculate ABV while accounting for a Wort Correction Factor based on Hydrometer and Refractometer readings. We've been using it successfully for a few brew sessions now, and I figured it might be a good idea to...
