go to the DIY section and make yourself a keezer! Sorry about your fridge that really is not fun. Carbonating beer at room temperature is hard and you would not want to pour it without probably 50 ft of line. I need 10ft at 40 degrees at 8 psi. Or you can wait until winter and keep it in...

Not a problem

Just let it age a bit more. Wait a week or two and try it again. Don't worry too much about leaving all of the stuff in the bucket through fermentation. I do that all the time. Belgians sometimes take a bit of time - flavors change from one week to the next. Brew another batch or two and...

Thanks for all of the suggestions!

if I put it in 1oz o2 bags how long will it last? I would get more if it would last a year. I'd hate to waste it even though im paying about 1/4 the cost of my hbs. That is a LOT of hops Lump.

I was going to buy a few pounds of hops to use. Any suggestions of some general varieties that will fit different types of beers. I was thinking cascade, columbus, Crystal, saas, williamette.

Fermenting yet?

ok, so I brewed this beer the other day and then something came up and I had to leave the house in a hurry right after the mash cycle - I got the grain out, but didn't have the chance to raise the temp over 170 to denature the enzymes. I'm worried that those little guys just turned everything...

I'm looking to put a valve on the bottom of my kettle so I can use a false bottom instead of BIAB. The beers I brew are usually so big that BIAB is not really an option. for example right now I have an IPA that Im getting ready to brew and it has 19lbs of grain. what are the steps and...

I know it has been ages since I posted this, but I figured if anyone else had this problem it would be nice to know that the beer was fabulous! The lid was probably off for several hours. So if this happens to you - don't sweat it. My house was built in 1920 and the basement is stone...

posting to save....

I just mentioned this beer to my wife and she is all over it. Whatever keeps her happy keeps me brewin, but no complaints here. This looks awesome! :rockin:

did the same on one of my beers. Totally threw off the flavor. Tasted like a rubber tire.

sounds like it is time to buy a kegging system!

I just got a 15.5 gallon pot and I was wondering - can I do a double batch - 10 gallon final wort volume - in this pot? Also how do you keep the wort at the proper temp while mashing. Is stirring sufficient?

Hi all, Where do I get myself a keg to convert to a keggle? Ebay auctions them for 40 bucks, but then it is 80 bucks for shipping! thanks

i wish i did take pictures. it was quite a mess. i can only imagine the pressure that could blow a lid 5 feet from the bucket!

Thanks guys. All done, we'll see.

Yesterday I brewed a batch and this morning i wend into the basement and the lid blew off! Ugh! so the question is - is the beer contaminated and should I throw it out? I'm gunna be bummed if it is ruined. I skimmed of the top foam to try to remove any contaminants that may have fallen...

So I purchased a thermostat from AHS to convert my chest freezer to a keezer. I pull it out of the package and it has two places to set temp. The normal dial and an adjusting dial you turn with a screwdriver. When I pulled the one out of the freezer the temp sensor was WAY longer than the...
