Yes I got the same thing from my wife (school teach), I was a bit tired when typing and just continued the mistake.

I had been in the keg for about 45 days and it was still the same. :( So I poured it out. If you like Belgian IPAs you would have loved this one!

I used and English Ale yeast from the LHBS same yeast as before. This was a DFH 60 min clone and it called for temp at 71 and then let it rise to 74 to clean up the diacetyl. I know it was way warmer than that for a while. So if you ferment in the low 60s how do you prevent diacetyl?

Ok not to offend Belgium beer drinkers but I brewed an IPA that I have made before. The last time it was awesome! 5 gallons gone in 90 minutes at an office party. I made the same batch again and it tastes like a Belgium beer. I know that it got a little warm during fermentation, aroun 76-78...

I have a small little cubby about the size of a chest freezer under my stairs. I insulated it with fire retardant insulation and put a little electric heater on a thermostat. To keep it at 68 it runs about 30 seconds twice an hour. :-) Best 20 bucks I ever spent.

Hello all, I have been tring to find a sanitizer I like. I have used bleach, Iodine-bsaed, b-brite and now I tried Star San to clean my bottles for a 90 min IPA I just bottled. I added 1 oz to my bottleing bucket and rinsed all bottles and hoses in there. I then let all equipment dry on my...

Hello all, I am bottling a batch of beer for a friend for his birthday. I want to bottle tomorrow night but I don't want to waste time washing bottles. Can I was the bottles tonight and hang them on the bottle tree and bottle with them tomorrow night without rewashing? Thank you! Tom

It is yeast that if properly stored and harvested you can you again. Here is a great article on how to: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f163/yeast-washing-illustrated-41768/

So I am making a DFH 90min IPA that I have made before. I had it in my fermentation box for about 8 days and it looked like it was done so I moved it into my secondary and added the dry hops. Today 7 days later, I went to bottle it and I see I still have active feremtation. About 1/2 inch of...

I am assuming the standard settings should be fine. Forgive my ignorance I just want to make the right purchase.

And I can easily attach the base and hopper to the rollers?

Can u provide a link. Please.

I looked at the crankandstien and here is the problem with that, I am not mechanically inclined unless it is a computer, router or firewall you need fixed I can handle it. However building the components around a crankandstien forget it. :-)

Awesome. I think I am going to go with the barley crusher as I want to use it right out of the box. I don't want to have to build a hopper or anything like that. Thanks all! After using it for a year or 2 I can take it apart to clean. I have to clean everything else right? Why not my miller as...

Everyone, I am going to buy my own grain miller and I am stuck between the Barley Crusher and the Monster Malt miller. I am leaning in the direction of the barley crusher because it has a larger hopper and it is about 30 bucks cheaper. I already have a drill so that is not a concern. Any...

Great thank you. Is there a guide that shows you how to remove the parts and how to clean them? Eb

awesome! thank you so much! Because this is my first Sankey system, I almost tossed it out. How often should they be replaced?

I naturally carb all of my kegs. For a pale ale I usally set it around 70 but 68 should be fine. My last one was a DFH 60 min clone. It carbed for 2 weeks naturally and was gone in 90 minutes at the office party. You will need very little CO2 to push it as the natural carbonation will push a...
