I read most of the article and almost lost my lunch when he said "My beer had a sour green apple taste the Homebrewing forum (not HBT I assure you) siad that is why it's called green beer" also apparently fermentation also produces Acetaldehyde according to complicated brewing books. The...

yeah I top up the ferementer to 5 G's I guess I'm trying to play around with adding less of not 'worty' liquid to the fermenter. Maybe to improve flavor!

Hey HBT happy holidays to y'ou all first of all will be brewing the weekend after TG. So I haven't seen any threads on this so I have a question. I do partial boils in a three gallon pot. So I boil about 2.5 GAL of water add my extract and boil for 60 min, So I want to know after...

I've been reading this thread this it's inception (sorry drunk on Jom and coke) My SWMABO has asked about the legality and if it's safe to drink.

If nay of you are in the midwest region, my favorite three RIS are Boulevard Brewing Company Imperial Stout 2011 Smokestack Great Divide Brewing Yeti, I have had the regular version and the Oak aged, there is a new "Belgian" one apparently inoculated with Brett, could be good. O'dell brewing...

I had a problem with my beer tasting good before carbonation and tasting like tire rubber after, so my next batch of beer will be made with nothing but RO/spring bottled water, because I guess I have chloramine in out local water table, if it's still there I will be back on HBT asking questions :)

Have to agree with some of the above comments about their average year round beers, even the seasonal six packs aren't that great I drink ZON (missed out this year, too broke) and Sometimes Bob's 47 (octoberfest) The RIS they have is astounding as is the Saison.

you could always use Fermencap that will make the bubbles subside, I used it on my second batch

Sorry it was an extract brew. I steeped at between 155-175 for 30 minutes. I found out last night that there are Chloramines in our tap water and I used tap water for my boiling of my extract and then topped off again with around another gallon after I ran out of distilled water. The last Batch...

So I finished bottling an English Bitter this last week from Midwest Supplies. Primed and bottled according to the recipe. Just tasted a bottle to see how it was going to taste. and so far not impressed. It tastes of the plastic it fermented in. It is no where finished carbing and I know...

It looks like the deathshead moth of the silence of the lambs Novel

I want to know what the Sam Smith Cider and Stingo taste like. We can get the Stingo here in KS but I haven't seen the Cider

So just had my first glass of Duvel. Pretty impressed with it. How do they get the head to be so creamy, it's almost like a head of a nitro. Just wondering if anyone had any ideas.

I've been in the restaurant industry for the better part of my professional life.i'm 26 and I'll probably never have a regular 9-5, I've worked in fine-dining establishments, nicer lunch places, delicatessen'/bistro type places. Those of you who have never worked in a restaurant, have not a clue...
