BYO2020 shows up as invalid for me, never used it before.

I have revised my recipe and am confused about the predicted ABV. I've entered this into three different apps and all yield quite varied results ranging from 9.3% to 12.3%. Here is the grain bill. I'd like it to be reasonably close to the original which is 11.3%. If they were all within like...

Thanks for this! I have a question for you. At least one of the online calcs I've used so far also accounts for "Packaging Losses" or similar which are from the Fermenter to the bottle, keg, etc. Do you have a similar factor in yours? I've just downloaded and started messing around with it...

10 gallon stainless steel brew kettle with valve. Holds 10.25 gallons. $55 Elevated propane burner. Great height for gravity draining into bucket or fermenter. $35 Wilserbrewer BIAB mesh bag for above kettle. Like new, not stained. Used 6 times. $20 All for $100. I am selling as I bought a...

New in box, never used. Have two of these. $40 for one or $70 for both. High quality, thick Italian glass. Local pickup 27006.

Have 54 cleaned and delabeled beer bottles of same size, mostly Sam Adams. Have another 18 clean but with labels. If you bottle you know what a chore it can be to sort for size and delabel. Save your time and effort as I’ve already done it for you. I moved on to kegs so no longer need. Local...

Have you tried the Classic or Reserve kits? I am tempted to try one just to see if there is a really noticeable difference. I imagine there is, but HOW much? Tough part with wine is waiting. At least with beer it's close to instant gratification :-)

This would go well with my existing WiFi ITC-308. Thanks!

Ya, tried it upper and lowercase as well just to see if that mattered. I have used both brewfiles and byo20 before, so that is likely the issue.

Planning to make the Private Reserve Lodi Ranch 11 Cabernet Sauvignon Wine Kit with a buddy. Label Peelers has the best price by far that I could find on the 'net.

Weird, just tried it and said it was invalid.

Question about different hops. The only NEIPA I made was based on the OP's recipe (of this thread that is) and I used 3-Citra, 2-Mosaic and 1-Galaxy. While it came out great, I admit that I am not all that familiar with the nuances of each. How much does each of these differ or is a singular...

Hoping to get some feedback on this, even if you haven't tried the original. I picked up a 15G Brewbuilt kettle locally over the weekend so am set in that regard.

I am in the process of deciding on a bigger kettle as well. I do ~5G batches now (typically 5.5 or 5.6 into the fermenter actually) and barely have enough volume in my 10.25G kettle for around 14# of grain. I am wanting to do a batch that requires about 25# of grain and this obviously exceeds...

Has anyone had this beer? It is phenomenal. Definitely a very big beer but I want to try and make it. At the brewery it's listed as about 11.5% if memory serves. It comes in four flavors: Coffee, Coconut, Maple and a blend of all three. I prefer the Coconut version, but all are great. I am...

This is some good info. I've brewed a fair amount of beer but only one wine kit several years ago. The wine was actually quite bad and I've never tried another, but the Winexpert kits seem to be highly rated. The one I did was a Cabernet from William's Brewing. After reading up on the...

Point of comparison, I recently bought my first mill...the Cereal Killer from AIH. I first used it in "manual" mode and then of course quickly grew tired of that. For my second batch I grabbed my simple 12V Ridgid drill, used it on the low speed (0-350 RPM). While 350 RPM may be a little too...

Agreed. Only using as a visual indicator to see if/when the desired pressure is reached.

From a previous batch...

Just for a point of comparison, I brewed an American Stout on Dec 31 using US-05 yeast. It had slowed down considerably yesterday morning (Jan 4) as witnessed by anemic airlock activity. I transferred to the serving keg last night with hopes of natural carbonation via spunding valve, letting...
