    What to do for the apartment brewer?

    I briefly read up on the 2, 1500w elements. I'm not sure about the amperage of the circuits, i'll have to check when i get home. I havent read anything on this yet, but is it possible to do BIAB in a keggle? Grain Bag would have to not touch the elements im assuming, but is it possible? And...

    What to do for the apartment brewer?

    When to take gravity reading?

    So i brewed my first batch about 5 days ago now, and i'm seeing a slowing in activity at the airlock. I've read to NOT go solely on what the airlock is saying but instead take gravity readings and ensure its the same 2-3 days later. My question is when should i take a gravity reading? My OG...

    Thinking of switching over to AG

    So i've just gotten into the hobby and love it. I've been trying to figure out what i would need to do an all grain batch, and wanted your input on what i would need to do so. I've got 2 5-gal brew pots, one i use on my induction cooktop for quicker boils. I started with a beginner kit for...
