Hello everyone! I made this beer branch on MrOwl (it’s like an internet topic playlist) and it has everything you could want—including home brewing tips and how-to's and a huge US brewery list. Would you mind looking through it and letting me know if there’s anything missing or that should be...

I could absolutely go buy water, but I never saw the point when I could have 7-8 gallons ready to go in 5-10 minutes and it does filter out the chlorine. And I did not pay for the machine, so I could not tell you an estimate of cost per gallon. The machine is set to clean every set amount of...

Very Interesting. For every batch so far, I have used my machine since it is what I have at my house. I knew that alkalinity was not a friend so I have stayed in neutral to slightly acidic pH for my water (6.5 7pH). I do have a cooler with a temperature regulator for fermentation so I try to...

I did about 5 different extract kits, some of them a few times to see if I could make them better. Now I have switched to All Grain and I have done a Milk Stout, a Bock, and a Porter. So far my favorite that I have Brewed was the Milk Stout because we soaked Vanilla beans in Jack Daniels and put...

Maybe I will just deleted this thread. I apologize to anyone who thinks I was selling something. I received my machine as a gift. I was really just curious about learning more about water and brewing with the resources that I have available to me, but looks like this isn't the best place to ask...

Hey! I am really not trying to sell anything here! I am not part of that company or pyramid scheme or anything... It is just a machine that I have and asked a simple question of water pH because as a new brewer I am just trying to learn to make the best possible beer that I can make. I feel as...

I will start playing with other alternatives as well as using this water and I will report back! =) I have only had great success so far while brewing, but I am still rather new so I will make sure I can back that up. As for the machine itself, I am blown away with the quality and the benefits...

Awesome! Thank you for that link! That is really what I was looking for! The here is a link to the machine I have. I have been using one for years for everyday use. https://www.enagic.com/?c=product-comparison

Has anyone played with water pH?! I have a machine that allows me to make water at almost any pH... Alkaline drinking water (8-9.5), Clean water (7), or even acidic (5.5-6.5). I know that mash pH is a variable, but just looking for insight if anyone has experimented and how!

Hello! I am so excited to be able to talk to fellow homebrewers and continue to learn! I have been brewing for about 6 months and Have brewed 6 - 5 gal batches. I have finally switched over to all-grain! Just thought I would say Hello!

Thank goodness for Google. I am a new brewer and always looking to learn!
