It seems to be some type of composite. There's a broken corner. Looks like some sort of synthetic particle board. Good point on the temps.

I recently bought a lot of brew equipment from a lady that was liquidating it. One of the items was a black Synthetic Pony Keggle. I've been wanting to get into all grain. Could I convert this into a mash tun?

Perfect.. I was in full swing of exercising RDWHAHB.. just curious more than anything. Now all I have to do is let that 7.2% India Black Ale get carbed. Thanks!

Has anyone ever seen this? I racked a IBA out of Primary last night and this is the first time that I've seen a Yeast Cake that wasn't consolidated. It looked more like curds and not solid at all. This is my 8th batch and the only thing that I did different this time was Use a Wort Chiller...

That's what I was thinking after reviewing the few bottles I've opened and I chekced a few others that were aging. I have a bottle washer but time for a bottle brush to get the junk outa this one. I'd love to keg but alas the financies prevent it. I'd rather brew more beer than spend the cash on...

No it wasn't the yeast sediment. its a black growth at the bottom this is my 2nd batch of beer. I did have 2 oz of bitter orange peel in the final boil so it already has a "sour" taste just like a pre-oranged drink. I did open a 2nd bottle and there wasn't the same growth at the bottom. I'm...

Smells fine and tastes good. my FG was a bit lower than expected. 1.009 instead on 1.012

I'm with you! I was just about to post about this exact thing! Thanks for beating me to the punch.

I have my Second batch of beer in my primary fermentor right now a Belgian Wit. What my question is this. I just took a hydrometer reading and it came back with 1.012 which is the desired Finishing Gravity. Initial thoughts is awesome it's done; however, I brewed it on Sunday. It's only been...

I know I know.. RDWHAHB.. I'm learning.

Beer turned out awesome! Thanks for the support everyone.

Thank you all For aleaving my fears. A lot of first batch unknowns at this point for me. Looking foward to my home brew!

I was wondering on a few things. I started brewing last week and for the first 3-4 days my airlock was going nuts.. but now nothing is happening on the airlock. I did go out of town so the temperature might have crawled up to 70 to 71 degrees where I was fermenting. So my question is did I...
