    House Beer

    I don't have a house beer but a house style or actually 2, both English, a dark mild and a bitter/pale ale. I try to keep them under 4%. easy to drink and I can drink a good bit of it without ill effects the next morning.

    Using different types of sugar in one fermentation

    I will disagree with the statement that sugars don't add flavor to the final product. Sugars can have an impact on the flavor. The dark sugars that the British have used for years have a huge impact on color an flavor and they use sometimes 3 or 4 different ones in a brew along with using them...

    What are you drinking now?

    Just a 8.5% chocolate stout that I put on nitro. The gas change made such a difference in this beer.

    Most embarrassing homebrewing mistakes

    I have been brewing for probably 4 years and probably 35 batches, I just finally decided to move on from my entry level setup to something better and eventually to a RIMS for the mash. That was my first time dumping a beer. I should know to stop once things go sideways.

    Anyone like using beersmith?

    I have been using it for about a month and it is great compared to Brewersfriend. Again money well spent.

    Most embarrassing homebrewing mistakes

    Well I have a new one and I don't know if it is embarrassing or just an alignment of random errors. The plan was to brew one of Ron Patterson's historic mild recipes. I messed up and forgot brown malt but randomly added C75 in beersmith, I figured add some brown and go with it. Oh and I am out...

    How much bourbon/whiskey to add to stout?

    One thing to note when adding bourbon is, what bottle you are adding. If it is a run of the mill 80 proof you may need to add more than the 126 proof cask strength that I am drinking now as water may be added at bottling to dilute to the desired proof. The branding has been left out to save any...

    Most embarrassing homebrewing mistakes

    Now I get to repaint my kitchen ceiling. On a side note remember to put the oring in the liquid poppet before pressurizing your keg to 30psi.

    Choosing a first pump

    I have read and watched everything I can and somewhat at a loss. I know that I can go spend $300 on a pump and be happy with it but there are a ton of pumps under that. I get the differences between ss and plastic heads. My setup is 2 10 gal pots and an 10 gal Igloo cooler in the kitchen. I...

    WLP835 German Lager X is in Production

    The last one I was in on I got mine showed up 3 weeks after the first that posted but only took 2 days from the ship date. My guess is multiple production batches.
