I know this is a very complex beer to make but I have oak barrells and the needed supplies and would love to give it a shot. I had my first one a week ago and it was amazing! Any help is greatly appreciated. EB

I want one of those sooo bad!

Yeah I am replacing the current ones. I just want to make sure this doesn't happen again. :-)

I am having the gas company come soon and run some new lines for my brewing equipment. They are going to put in 2 line for me so I can run 2 burners. I am tired of filling tanks and it will be much cheeper to use the propane tank I already use for stove and dryer. So my question is what is a...

Last month my kegerator died. It just stopped cooling. So I got a new/old fridge and have it ready to go. However when I took out my old beer lines they were dirty, even though I have run Iodophor and water. So I need a better clear for the lines. What does everone use and how often do you clean...

Good to know. I am going to leave it in the secondary til this weekend and keg it. This is the second time I have made his batch and it was so good last time. If only I could get the grains crushed better. (I ordered my own barely crusher!) EB

I have been making a concentrate and adding it. I added a little more concetrate to the secondary when I moved it last night. It is still going I just wanted to get it off the cake.

This was a long story. But I made the batch and because my friend did a crappy job of crushing the grain, I had a starting OG of 1.058 when it should have been 1.111 so I have been adding DME to it to raise the final ABV.

I just transfered from my primary to secondary and I had some wort leftover due to the fact that I had to add some DME. I have it in a growler. My question is can I add a little priming sugar, cap it and let it carbonate in there? I tried to add a picture but I don't think it worked. Thanks! EB

Yep "keep the faith" it will start.

I use almost always Wyeast. I have been making starters for 2 years now with them. the yeast is always good just some times a little slow starting. Pitch when it is time, just don't be surprised if it take 36 to take off.

Dude I have no idea. I could have used a rolling pin and it would have been fine. He used one of those old hand crank mills So now I am getting the Barley Crusher next week. No more 4hr boils for nothing. EB

Perhaps just dual regulator will do. I have mostly IIPAs on tap and the occasional stout. And I really don't have to force carb to much as I really like to add a little priming sugar to the keg.

I have a new, old fridge that I made into my second kegerator. With this one I put the CO2 tank on the outside so I can have 4 kegs in at once. I am looking for a regulator that will support 4 taps at different pressures. I have looked at many sites but I am a little confused. Most multi systems...

I wish I had seen this yesterday as I just built my second one yesterday. I would leave the inside liner in. I always drill from the front first. Once I have my hole in the front I use a long drill bit and continue to drill from the front. this helps me determine where to drill on the back of...

Ok I had a friend mill some grain for me and I brewed with it yesterday. It was 18.5lbs of 2 row pale and 2.5lbs of Amber Malt. My starting gravity should have been arount 1.11 but it is only 1.068! I looked at the grains and there were very badly milled some where cracked however about 75% of...

Awesome. I have some around the house here. I'll try it tomorrow.

I have a 5 gal keg like most of you do and the plastic handle is coming off on one side. Will whis keg no longer seal? I am not sure if the handles are just ther for convience or what anyone know? Thank you so much for the info. EB

Well the title says it all. I need the hop profiles for Yakima Golding and Palisade hops. I use BeerSmith software but the NEVER seem to update anything any more. I am wondering if I should switch? Thanks ALL! EB

Thank you! I noticed that they have different faucet options. What is the difference between the Perlick faucets? Is there a reason why I would want to spend more on them?
