    Strawberry Blonde - Taste...

    This is exactly what I was trying to avoid. However, your post above this makes sense... I will carb it up and see if that helps. If not, I may pull a pint and add some splenda to see if that helps. The strawberry extract smells just like cough syrup. That's the whole reason I went with...

    Strawberry Blonde - Taste...

    Quick question. Unfortunately I'm not near my recipe however I do have a question. I made a Blonde ale last year, brewed it 3 times with consistent results. This time around, I decided to add 4lbs of frozen strawberries to the secondary. I went to keg it this weekend, siphoned a small...

    New Bench Capper not working.

    Win! Pam cooking spray. No lie, a tiny squirt and it works like a dream. Usually only once for a 5 gallon batch.

    BeerSmith 2.0

    Its an awesome update. Totally worth the pre-order price, or the discounted price if you are a previous owner. To those of you complaining about purchasing it again, think of windblows. You just buy Vista today, Windows 7 comes out next month. What's the upgrade fee? It's very rarely...

    Beer Smith 2.0 preorder

    That is your "actual ABV" you have to enter your OG and FG into the recipe for it to calculate. This is for when you actually brew your recipe. See Estimated ABV for the estimate.

    Buying Beersmith

    Please don't do the trial game that was recommended above. He is working hard on the new version. The current version is very much awesome. If you want it now, I'd say buy it now and use it for a year. Get used to it. The new version is very very similar to the old version, but it has a new...

    Hop Bits in Draft Beer!

    I had a few hop leaf pieces make it into my kegged blonde ale. No biggie, part of home brew. To the poster questioning if it's algae? Um, I hope not. Algae need Oxygen and Light to survive. If you have those 2 items in your kegs, I would think you'd have much more wrong with your beer than...

    EJM Brewing - Blonde Ale

    What do you all think? This is still a work in progress but I'm trying to make my labels the same no matter the style of beer I create. This happens to be for my blonde ale. It's been a loooooooong time since I've played with graphics, but it feels good to be working on images again. Any...

    Chocolate Nibs

    phished880 hit it right on the head. I made a Chocolate Bock, its currently bottle conditioning. It will be ready mid February. I used 3 oz of Cocoa Nibs in the secondary for 3 weeks. (3 gallon batch) It is very chocolate, dark chocolate, but mm mm good. I tasted a sample while I was...
