I am having some pint glasses made and wondered if anyone else had some personalized ones done. If anyone else had some with thier brewery name on them, I thought it might be cool to trade up.

Making a starter as I type. Going to give an oatmeal stout a try this weekend. I only just bottled/kegged my first batch on Monday with my second brew going to secondary tuesday. Now brewing third batch this weekend........am I getting ahead of myself?lol

I naturally carbed the beer because I split the batch between bottles and keg. Bottled a twelve pack and kegged the rest. The beer i put in the keg was sealed up and then hit with some CO2 to hopefully fill the extra head space.

I just kegged and bottled my first batch of brew and was wondering if I should leave it at room temp for a few weeks or put it in the fridge and let condition at cool temps. It is an ale.

Went the to the LHBS thursday and got ingredients. Giving an Oatmeal Stout a try if I can find time this weekend.

North of the Pitt here......Beaver County. Only on my second batch here but having fun so far. Can't wait to actually get to taste some homebrew.

I have been eyeing this recipe up and before I made a batch I figured I would try a commercial pumpkin ale first to see what the taste is all about. I tried Saranac's Pumpkin Ale and was not overly impressed. It was ok but maybe I was expecting too much. I didn't taste much pumpkin in it at all...

Newbie here looking for some recipes to brew. I was hoping someone could pass along an Oatmeal Stout recipe and maybe a Bock (something that might be similar to Michelob Amber Bock). I'd like to get a few decent brews under my belt before I go experimenting on my own. Thanks in advance for...

I am putting together my kegerator and remembered reading something about the length of beer line from keg to faucet. I can't remember where i saw it but, it said something about the line needing to be at least five feet long to cut down on foaming. Wondered if anyone knew if there was truth to...

I was big into the 2 wheel racing but keeping up with it has faded since I lost the SPEED Channel and had to get rid of my track R6. Last I saw of this season Nicky Hayden was having a terrible championship defense but his teamate Danny Pedrosa was ripping it up. Do you pay amy attention to...

Being in constrction payed for......We were tearing down an old pizza joint and came across a half dozen or so corny kegs, ball taps, and CO2 bottles. The boss let me have what I wanted, so I figure I'll give kegging a try. I do have some questions I was hoping the board could answer: 1...

I wondered what type of smells I should expect from fermetation. This probably varies from brew to brew but I figured there should be a type of smell to knoe everything is going O.K.

I just brewed Cheesfoods Carmel Cream Ale using White Labs German Ale yeast. Is there a rule of thumb in general though? I am on the lookout for a second fridge/freezer and a thermostat control for fermenting and I would like to try lagers.

I was a little confused on what kind of temperatures the secondary needed to be at. Can/Should you leave the secondary at room temp or still stick with the proper fermenting temperature for the type of beer you are brewing. Thanks in advance for the pointers.

I brewed my first bacth this past weekend and had a great time doing so. I got a little worried when my airlock wasn't bubbling after the first day in the primary but I came home to find it chugging away as expected. My wife made fun of me when I got all excited about it. If something...

Been on the forum for a while and this brew caught my eye from the get go. I finally purchased my brewing gear and want to give it a try. I will be extract brewing and am not a big fan of wheat beers.....any suggestions on what to replace the wheat DME with?

My wife and I just spent a weekend in Berkley Springs, WV and I had a few drafts of Potomac Ale while at the inn. Besides the fact that it was 3.85/draft I loved the way it tasted. I asked the bartenders and numerous local stores where I might find it in bottles but the most info I could get was...

Hankevans, Thanks for the invite! Wish I could have made it but, the wife already had a weekend getaway planned to Berkley Springs, WV. I'll have to make it out for the next one or join you for a brew session if you don't mind a newbie wathcing. I did get the chance to have a few good brews...

Potential new brewer here and this site has been a great help and very informative. I previously posted on here my questions and concerns about jumping into to brewing and someone made the suggestion of hanging out with someone that already brews and learning the ropes. I was wondering if anyone...

I screwed up and posted it in the wrong section somehow. Woops:off:
