    Just a very basic fridge from cosco. I cut the drawers and the inside of the door, fits 2 pepsi kegs. The co2 tank and regulator sits in the back and i just use cobra picnic taps for now. When i'll find the schematics of the fridge online to know where to drill the holes, i'll install a tower...

    Who here has made a home brew with maple syrup? Advice? Lessons learned?

    ^ that sounds like an awesome idea. How long did you let the cubes sit in maple syrup? How many cubes? And how long did you let that sit in the carboy?

    Who here has made a home brew with maple syrup? Advice? Lessons learned?

    I heard of les trois mousquetaires, never tried. I live in quebec city, we have la voie maltée, le corsaire, les trois brasseurs, l'innox, l'archibald... Only to name a few. On l'ile d'orléans, there is a micro that brews la "Suzane Marceau" i think it´s an Ipa with a very very strong maple...

    Who here has made a home brew with maple syrup? Advice? Lessons learned?

    I remember a wheat and it was a kit with everything in a bag like festabrew. I threw 3 cups of maple syrup in primary, nothing in the carboy and 3/4cup for priming. It was a galon i got from a friend and it was very dark, probably like the one you gonna use. The darker, the better. You'll end...

    I used maple syrup in a few brews and if you put it in primary it's a waste 'cause you won't taste it. Priming works, you won't taste the sugar but there will be a are subtle maple wood taste. I liked the result. Envoyé de mon iPhone à l'aide de Home Brew

    Fruit beer what the h...???

    You guys rock. I love this forum. I just bought myself a galon of maple syrup. I was thinking about brewing a part grain / part extract kit from "best case". Then add a 500ml of maple syrup before primary. Then rack on raspberries. I'd expect the maple to ferment and leave only a subtle wood...

    Fruit beer what the h...???

    Okay, I just spent a half hour reading the fruit beer section of the forum. Most recipes are simple : brew whatever you brew and rack with cleaned fresh or frozen fruits. Isn't it risky? With all the natural yeasts out there and other possible natural contamination??? Is it really just that...

    Chlorinated water - plastic smell

    Oh wow! I just finished cleaning after kegging. I filled it up and filled 2 1L pet bottles (with a half teaspoon of priming sugar in each btl)... Kept the remaining half glass for a taste test. Lots of hops, tasted pretty green but no plastic or bandaid taste whatsoever. I think it turned out...

    Chlorinated water - plastic smell

    Update : just transfered to carboy yesterday, the smell is still there but fainted a lot. I think it won't be as bad as I thought. Didn't taste it tho, i forgot to take a sample while it was transfered and didn't want to mess around with it while it was already in the carboy. Envoyé de mon...

    Chlorinated water - plastic smell

    Thanks, i won't throw it out for sure no matter what people say, if it still smells and tastes bad after aging in the keg. I'll just keep it to myself and get drunk for no reason once in a while with it lol. Envoyé de mon iPhone à l'aide de Home Brew
