All great information guys I was surprised at the amount of responses I received. Haven't logged in for 2 days.

lol I am a Sooner Fan never attended the school. My wife is a OSU Alum. It can be very hostile at my house during Bedlam...

For fear of sounding like a noob yet again… I am running out of room in my basement! Cases of beer, cases of wine, all kinds of brewing equipment, wine cooler, cheese that is aging, drum set, army gear and empty bottles. I literally need to start kegging. I want to set up my own system is...

Yea I have plenty of bottles too but I always have something in a bucket or carboy lol

Kinda tasted like a flat old beer lol. Wish I had read this post earlier. I poured out 44 bottles this morning. The ferm temp was 68 and there was carbonation present. The beer had a head when I poured it. Ill try the Belgian Blonde again soon. This weekend I am attempting a Red Ale...

Good morning yall. Okay so I wanted to update everyone on the Belgian Blonde. There I was lighting the smoker up early on Sunday morning to smoke a brisket. I figure what the hell its Memorial weekend and its 5 o’clock somewhere so I pop the top poor into an ice cold mug. It had a nice...

I just need to get over my crazy idea that it has to go into a secondary... I guess I have been making wine for too long lol

Your probably right.. Ill go ahead and move it today and get the dry hops going...

So last night I was able to bottle the Dunkel. Tasted great at bottling. I popped the top off my Imperial and it looked ready so I started raking it to the secondary. Yes I ignored the advice about not moving it. I'm just accustom to putting it in the secondary for fining. Got about half of...

Yes I find it very enjoyable to drink a cold homebrew while making home brew

Thanks...

Thanks guys all good advice. I tend to drink when I brew lol and usually come up with my own method. Good thing I have a helper and my Daughter writes everything down in our wine and beer journal.

I find that if I get a little carried away and push harder I get the divot. Usually happens after I have been bottling wine it takes more pressure. Doesn’t really take a ton to cap beer ...
