    When to Pitch Dry Yeast?

    Okay, I have a question which will seem obvious to those with experience but I don't really know the answer. I've brewed two AG batches so far (one kegged, one still in the primary). I'm using glass Carboys for fermenting. So far I've been using dry yeast without a starter as well. Here's...

    Commercial tap handle style stickers

    Jealous of your commercial tap handle. I have some custom oak/maple turned and stained handles which are nice but obviously can't display beer lables/names/etc. Anyway, why not just buy sticker paper (http://www.staples.ca/ENG/Catalog/cat_sku.asp?CatIds=&webid=522226&affixedcode=WW), print...

    Another Help with my logo thread

    Like all the other ones I've seen here, I'm someone that has a name but I'm jus not talented enough to come up with a good beer co logo. The name I have is Doran Creek Brew Co. Named after a spring fed, crystal clear creek complete with waterfalls (all very picturesque) that runs through...

    Alternative Grain Beer Rye Pale Ale

    I ran across this after looking for a good rye beer. Here's the thing, I'm new to brewing in general and All-Grain in specific (only brewed 2 batches so far). I've never dry hopped and don't really understand what it does to the beer as far as flavour/bitterness...so, if I brewed this but...

    Another OG Question

    I've done a lot of searching on OG and a lot of reading, but I have a question that I didn't see really answered anywhere (although I'm sure it has been answered 7,179,834 times before). I just brewed my second batch of All-Grain today, and the OG came in at a temperature-corrected 1.045. The...

    Brewing in Canada.

    Thanks for all the replies, I figured the forums would have some suggestions. 6:30 am and I'm doing some online shopping over my morning coffee! Looking at the Whitby store now to see what they have since I'd rather drive and buy the grain instead of shipping it.

    Brewing in Canada.

    Sorry to revive an old thread, but I'm in need of some help here. I'm new to All-Grain brewing, but I'm having a heck of a time finding a supplier of ingredients. I'm in Belleville, and all the LHBS are extract only. There's a store in Kingston that does sell a limited selection of grain and...

    International "Help the Newbie" day

    **UPDATE** Thought I'd update the thread in case some other new guy gets reading this thread and wants to know how this all turned out. After 10 days of warming the keg and lowering the CO2 levels, the Keg has returned to it's former glory and is drinkable again. So now, I get to drink it...

    International "Help the Newbie" day

    Thanks Birvine. I'm getting real beer again from the keg, but the taste is just so off. The beer appears flat now too and tastes, well, terrible. I just can't seem to win with this keg. I guess I can always drink it for effect, but the point of this system is to have good beer on tap, not...

    International "Help the Newbie" day

    Thanks for the answers, I appreciate it. As of today I'm getting a more "normal" pour, but the beer is really cloudy and tastes very heavy (it's supposed to be a lighter-tasting IPA). Does too much CO2 make beer appear cloudy? I can't see the keg having gone bad as it's always refrigerated and...

    International "Help the Newbie" day

    Hi. Okay, I'm new to home Kegging. I set up a home keg-dispensing system on my home bar by installing a mini fridge under the counter with a tower on the bar itself. Cooling of the beer lines is accomplished by running the beer lines through 1/2 inch copper pipe running up through the...
