I dropped the honey, and decided to add 1.5 lbs of pils. Why you ask? Because I grabbed the wrong damn bucket and started pouring pils on top of my specialty grains, thinking 'I sure do use a lot of pils' then realizing my error. Got most of it out.. I have a question about the yeast. If I...

When swmbo tries to make a cocktail and gets wortcubes

If you like another better, vote for that one. Not like he's cheating.

Ever think that the yeast didn't stop? Maybe they did their job and were done. If you repitch onto 'wort' that has no fermentables left, what is going to happen?

I have a similar setup, using a bazooka screen, More surface area definitly helps - it gives more room for the trub to be caught, but still letting the wort through. I recently saw one of these. I've found that if I prop up one side of my kettle while chilling, it keeps the trub away from...

For bottles you need bottles, caps, filler wand, siphon or bottling bucket w spigot, capper and sugar(some sort of primer) and patience. Pros - portability, less space needed in the fridge, variety, cost, and you can make your own labels! keep a few to compare to the next batch, or see how...

Everything is fine. WLP029 is one of my favorite strains. It has best results though at a lower temp, closer to 65-68degF. And liquid yeast generally begins to work quicker than dry yeast (unless you've rehydrated). :mug:

This is my first ever completely mine recipe. It's a bit out of style, but I'm trying to explore a bit. Recipe: Joe's Bitter Style: 8A-English Pale Ale-Standard/Ordinary Bitter Recipe Overview Wort Volume Before Boil: 6.50 US gals Wort Volume After Boil: 5.00 US gals Volume...

I just placed an order last week with NB. I double checked date prices today, and it would have been more BEFORE shipping. Not sure about any of the equipment or previous non-flat-rate items, but the price on hops has gone up, but the price on grain has gone down. And. It looks like they've...

So how did it go? Did it fit into the Baltic style?

Yeah, me too! I love to add my own brews, too. MidCityBrewCo

I would find a turkey fryer on amazon- make sure you get at least a 7 gal pot. This way you won't have to upgrade to do full boils. Buy 2 carboys/buckets and an immersion chiller. A hydrometer and test jar, a big spoon if you don't have one. Stoppers and bubblers. Auto-siphon. The bottles...

Campdem went in on 28th. Juice went in on 31st.

so, unfortunately, it's a swing and a miss. there was a slight imperfection in the beer. couldnt quite put my finger on it - a slight paper taste. i hoped the strawberry juice would cover it. i think it had something to do with ferm temps. other than that, the strawberries were quite tart...

racking, filling, first 'pint'

Today is the day! Had to renew the plates and stuff, having lunch with the kids then it's racking time. I added 5 Camden tabs two days ago. Beer is mostly clear, jut a bit of haze.

http://home-brewing.northernbrewer.com/search?asug=&view=grid&w=Dead+ringer They used to call it 3 hearted ale, until Bell's lawyers called.

If you reads the earlier posts, you'll see that the size of the starter was based upon not just the beer that was being brewed, but the viability of the yeast as well. Since the yeast was 4 months past production, the larger stater was needed to get the right cell count (which is of the utmost...
