Never heard of Polaris hops. Might look into it. Please tell me how it works out. Pretty buzzed right now off of sn hoptimum and stones 10th ruination ipa. Sure could go for a sweet stout right about now... Mint chocolate preference

My point was... We (home brewers) trip about... '' oh no I sneezed 5 feet away from my fermenter '' when really your first brew you are going to be anal just because all the brew tubers and infection forum's freak you out. When in perspective if beer was successfully made well before...

Whirlflock is the moss in tablet form perfect for 5 gallon batches

That's awesome. Whirlflock tablets do the trick for me

Shouldn't be an issue.

I'm sure this will work out nicely. Good malt flavoring with a little kick of hops. Probably will finish a lil cleaner with us-05 but regardless you should make a nice brown.

Every extract from light to amber to dark all will give you a different taste as well as body. Each one is made by basically creating an all grain wort then extracting the water from it. The all grain recipes from light to dark to create the wort use some of the same grains but a lot of...

Revolting or not... I'm sure dudes beer will be fine. You were the first person to put my nerves at ease. Now I need to pay it forward.

Yeah I probably won't add extract but maybe kick back on the tea bags. How did you do the chocolate?

Honestly you almost have to try to make your brew infected. I placed a bucket in a new garbage can full of water to keep the temperature consistent and totally got the spigot full of un sanitized water. Dug a unsanitized strainer through the brew to get floating sediment. Threw my bottles...

Thanks man. Super caramel flavor with a little bit of hop in the background. Didn't think I was going to rack so I used mesh bags for the hops and they were too tight. Hence the crazy caramel. After basically trying everything I could to infect this batch... I feel comfortable with...

No infection... And super delicious. Drank 4 last night. Got super $#! ++y. That is 4 bombers. Must... Drink... Water....

Are there any bubbles on the top layer of the brew? Is there a head inside of the bucket?

Woozy for President

@jeep. It had grass from the lawn being mowed. Sure it wasn't new... But no garbage touched it. Either way I'll let you know in about 3 weeks how it turns out.

@ woozy.. Yeah I'm sure time will calm my paranoia. Especially when I crack open my first bottle and taste success. @weizer... I'm in lakeside but my batch is at my moms in spring valley. I brewed last week when it was like 95 outside. Didn't expect the rain and cool temps or else I...

Thanks woozy. And yes the spigot is closed. I know I'm green but that would be.... Well... Retarded. But yes.

First Batch of homebrew went well… After Pitching the yeast I was worried in the sense that living in San Diego the weather would be too warm for fermentation… So I cleaned out a trash can (pretty much new just had some grass from the lawn being mowed) I placed my Bucket in a trash...
