I to started with the Mr. Beer kegs and I do still use them right along side my conical fermentor! I have five of the little buggers and I love them. I save my conical for the larger sized brew and use the Mr. Beer for experiments and brew for the ladies in the group that don't like real beers...

The differences in base malts may be difficult at to detect at best but think of it this way... If you take a nice steak some will eat it raw and it tatses good, most will throw it out on the grill and cook it - rare, medium rare, Medium, medium well, well done, and burnt to a crisp (don't...

I'm sure you know this but just in case ... You don't want to use the whole peel of citrus fruit to brew (or cook) you only use the zest ... that is the very thin outter layer with the color. That's where all the citrus oils are. The white part is VERY bitter and will not add a good fruit...

I have 10 ball lock 5 gallon kegs and 1 pin lock most of them are 7/8" 3 of them are 11/16. All of them say Cornelius on them. I haven't checked the 10 - 3 gallons kegs I just got in. I hope it's one of the two.

Gee if these folks are anything like my Wisconsin relatives you better get a few bottles of Brady too!

In case of bottle bombs or leaking caps, spigots etc. I use rubbermaid boxes or trashcans for all brews that aren't kegged or ready for drinking.

Last Christmas I did Cherry, Peach, Apricot, Dutch Apple, Blueberry, Raspberry and Strawberry Wheats The raspberries were from Orgeon Fruits, The peach and Apricot was from Delmonte (watch the lable for no preservatives) and rest were frozen. The frozen fruits had a stronger fruit flavor...

Hello Jim - I have just recently started All-Grain brewing. It's easier than it sounds trust me! It's alot harder to make a good spagetti sause than to brew beer. You will fine some improvement in the taste and maybe feel of your brews. If you've done a particial mash/steeped grain brews...

Hope this works http://www.geocities.com/deejaysmusic/hbt-666.bsm :o

Hi BrewBrothaRick- I love the Mr Beer mini kegs! I've got 5 of them! Also have 10 - 3 gallon corney kegs to dispense the brew in. I have a 6.5 gallon conical but use the Mr Beer kegs most of the time. Great to experiment with. I just love to brew. Debi

Thank you all for being so friendly - brewers do seemed to be ...errrr ... spirited folks! ;)

It was a 100+ year old barn - looked like drift wood. They used all kinds of fruit from our trees and tomatoes and dandelions. One really hot summer while we were at a wedding it all exploded! 4 barrels of new wine tall as I was at the time (probably around 40 -50 gallons each. BOOM and what a...

I can't for the life of me figure out how you know I am a drummer/ drum builder? LOL Maybe it was in the profile? Anyway ... I have a really sweet early 80's Ludwig super classic maple with long lugs - all coated evans G1s and G2s mounted on a pearl DR501 rack. 4 hanging toms (10, 12, 13...

Definately try the whisk thing! I did it because I didn't have anything else and it worked amzaingly well. Tried the fish tank areation thing and it took to long and didn't seem to do alot. Once you get really good you will amzaing your friends and family the next time you make fluffy lite...

Steve - I've tried both primary and secondary fruits and if you bottle straight from the primary that's easy dump them in. I found more of a fruit taste after the boil with blueberries, strawberries, apricots, peaches and cherries. Citus fruits deffinately go in the secondary if you have...

I made a Blueberry wheat using thawed frozen berries it was great! I dumped them in after the boil - cooled to about 180 F and left them in during the ferment. Really nice wine color. 3 lb. bag for 5 gallons Alot cheaper than using Oregon Fruits. :cross:
