Hey everyone. I'm taking two kegs to a tasting and wish to pour them without foaming once I arrive. They are currently properly carbonated at 4celcius in a kegerator. I'm using 10ft of line with a cobra tap and can reduce pressure if required. Any tips to reduce the shook up foaming from...

Has anyone experienced consistent under attenuation with 34/70? I'm on my 4th batch and all are testing between 67%-69% attenuation. The beers taste good (not sweet or worty) but the numbers don't seem to be matching what others suggest as proper attenuation. My ph's have all been good in the...

Better yet, I've wanted to brew a Düsseldorf alt and Sticke alt anyways. Maybe I could brew and split appropriately to end up with both. Volumes may differ but if one could be higher OG and other weaker as well as the IBUs respectively, that would be great. I could then dry hop the Sticke and...

Not sure what to do. I have a batch of Sticke ALT I accidentally made 100 IBU instead of 50. I then proceeded to boil down and go "imperial". However I changed my mind and want to brew it again without bittering hops and blend. The first batch ended up 5 gal with OG 1.063. I want the overall...

I fermented 20L of Sun Rype not from concentrate apple juice with S04 dry English yeast. It's been in the fermenter for almost a month and looking clear. I plan to keg and put on tap and leave dry. Any recommendations of how to infuse my dried elderflowers? I have 2oz I ordered online. I was...

I have similar issues at times. Check the SG and taste your sample. It's probably fermented fine. Cold crash and clear as you want...

Old fashioned arm and back muscle. Drains are not unusual but I wouldn't say common. We live in Alberta Canada. Lotsa frozen ice melting off cars in garage in winter Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Update: I sold the whole system to an old brewing club member. I continue to keep it ghetto with My old gear but am loving BIAB. I have a 15 gal and 7 gal pots and can brew 2 different recipes at once and one of them a double batch. With a new baby around time is key for me so when I get to brew...

Hello all! I don't know where to start... Just moved into a new house in Red Deer Alberta Canada. I want an apple tree(s) for making cider. Either single varietal or to combine with my fathers KERR Crabapples and or Sun Rype etc etc. It's sometimes below -30 Celsius here in winter and we have...

I am sadly selling my complete top tier blichmann homebrew system. Complete with 2x 15 gal boilermakers and x1 10 gal. 2 burners. 1 march pump. Currently setup as a RIMS system using a wort chiller in the HLT. Auto Sparge 2 false bottoms hop blocker etc. Literally used once as complete system. I...

Agreed. That was one of the reasons I went this way. Longevity of my back! I'm only 30 and in shape but I was getting a pretty sore back the other method. Thanks for reminding me:)

I do have temp control. I agree there are other things with great influence on beer other than what you brew with. IE temp control, mill, yeast pitch rate / oxygenation, quality of ingredients, water Chem etc etc

Hello everyone. This is my first post on HBT. I recently bought a full Blichmann top tier setup with 3 Boilermakers, 2 burners, March 815 pump, and all the fancy tubing and couplings. I had money saved up (over $3000) and wanted a brand new system that will make me less ghetto and last...
