ya i have to enter it in mobile. brad smith sent me a reply stating it cant be done yet through the mobile app. dont realy need the desk top version with the iphone one. cant justify the 30 just to nudge my lazy side.

how on earth do you take a beersmith file and put it into beersmith mobile? or is there no way. just to clear it up i downloaded a beersmith file from here. i dont have the desktop version because i have the mobile one, iphone. when i go to open it on my iphone it wants to use dropbox. thanks

im in the same boat. i was going to add some to the priming sugar when i was ready to bottle so when it goes into the bottle bucket i get a nice mix.

well 2things. one, the extra grain is for what? second , on the site under more info you will find the instructions for steeping grains. if I'm not mistaken, and u sure I could be , it's a 15-30 min steep. there is actually a you tube vid on it somewhere. just thinking of why add grain that...

so I made a Hefe drone the recipe page. I had no zest peeler so I scraped the zest off the pith. now after conditioning its a bit sour and harsh. although I can drink it I was thinking of ways to sweeten it in the glass. maybe some orange in he glass at serving? what do u think.

ya well I just tasted mine. it was good last week today a little more bitter I'm thinking from to much pith. couldn't find my zester and tried to peel as much off as I could. so now I think when I serve it I need to add some sweet to counter act. dam

I did a pumpkin ale as well and I had 7 points lower the suggested, for pre and post. I used three cans of pumpkin in the mash. I think it doesn't account for the added ingredient. the pumpkin has to take something away.

well i have been in this boat for 3 batches. now seeing this here im thinking my low efficiency may not be me. my lhbs may be the prob. i went to a different place and hit all my numbers spot on. then yesterday the grain i got from my regular shop gave me poor numbers. i thought it was me but...

want to open this back up, i was in the er for a severe reaction, eye closed throat swollen type stuff. the only new thing i touched was dme, never used it before, and a different pumpkin ale, i have had others and had pumpkin pie before so could it be dme. i do drink a lot of beer and brew ag...

ok gonna not use it. I gave a stir and it looks clumpy. just don't know

ok cool. i do have about 3 more in the fridge. but im going to make a nice starter for a stout. as long as danstar munich will work.

in a small mason jar i have around an inch on the bottom. some may be trub but i was going to separate that today. and thanks i am better, i have no idea what brought it on. but it was a severe anaphylaxis to something.

yes it was. and last week. been in the fridge ever since

ok I was going to make a yeast starter, first one, from a harvested cake. I put it on the counter fri night to warm it up to use sat afternoon. well, a bad reaction sent me to the Er for 6 hours. now being sun, brew day, can I just pitch this with no starter made? it's going into a pumpkin ale...

that beer should have been done in the prim 7 days after brewing, then in the bottle for 1-2 weeks. wheat beers are done quick from what i read and from the 2 i have done. im sure others will chime in. post a pic if you can.

after reading this i still dont see where the up to 20 gal fermenter question has been answered. i think i may go with the spraysmarter conical diy thing. i guess you can get a 10-15 gallon bucket but theres no relief valve, and will the legs support the 15 gallon of wort.

ok cool. im going to collect the yeast after bottling so ive been watching what i due

so looks like a reverse yeast cake. it was such a cool violent ferment but now what to do. just leave it be, I know, but does it matter if the top has all that in it

well the one thing i have noticed with AG brewing is its like making soup, the first couple of batches i got piss poor eff. but this last one i said f it. i mashed in stirred checked temp and sat on the couch with my boys until the timer rang. i found i was messing around to much with temps and...
