    Nottingham off flavors

    Has anyone experienced off flavors with nottingham? I've made 2 brews with it and both have had the same off flavor. It's a sort of alcohol taste that takes over and isn't that appealing. I do have temperature control and the first time was an IPA fermented at 65 and the second was an APA at...

    Fruit Beer Lemon-Lime Hefe Weizen

    I want to brew a 10 gallon batch of this on monday, but I don't know if I'll have enough time to do a 2 step starter in time to get the amount of yeast cells needed. Would underpitching this yeast cause any undesirable flavors for the recipe? Also, after the 3 week fermentation can I just...

    Timer for Heating Elements

    Yeah that pretty much is what happens now. Just one of those things that isn't totally necessary but just added convenience. Just found one of these that are rated to 20A. Thinking of just plugging in one heating element to kick on about two hours beforehand. Anyone have any experience...

    Timer for Heating Elements

    Everyone is always looking for ways to cut time from their brew day, so I was wondering if anyone had the idea of installing a programmable outlet or a different controller or something to turn on the heating elements and if so which one would be the would work best? I currently have a single...

    Cream Ale Cream of Three Crops (Cream Ale)

    You guys were right even after a few days in the keezer and carbonated things are starting to blend and the corn taste is there but much more balanced and tasting really good. Awesome beer to start the summer thanks for the recipe!

    Cream Ale Cream of Three Crops (Cream Ale)

    I just kegged this based on bonecitybrewco's recipe a few pages back after 2.5 weeks in the fermenter and it's good but the corn flavor stands out a little more than I like. Will this condition out and mellow a little bit? I got 2 kegs so I threw one in the keezer and left one out to warm...

    Williams Brewing Hop Spider

    Huh I thought I read somewhere that 400 was for whole hops and 300 was for pellets. I'll have to look into the 400 micron ones. I have a 15 gal converted keg

    Williams Brewing Hop Spider

    Dang you weren't kidding about aliexpress I'll have to start looking on there. Thanks for the recommendations I'll just order from Williams. I have an electric setup so I wasn't so keen on risking burning up a bag

    Williams Brewing Hop Spider

    Hey guys I'm looking to get a stainless hop spider for my setup, but am wondering why the hop spider from Williams Brewing is half the price than anywhere else which what looks like the same dimensions and everything. Anyone have any experience with this one? I have a keggle setup btw...

    Fermentation Chamber

    Yeah thanks for the replies. It was just the hinges that made it not fully open. I was thinking about taking them off and just laying the lid with some weight but I ended up buying 2 floor dollys so I can roll the chest freezer to my boil kettle with the fermenter already in there and then...

    CO2 Transfer at same level

    I'm starting 10 gallon batches so I bought a 60L Speidel fermenter, but the problem is that it barely fits into my current chest freezer and has to be tilted to clear the lid. This would be nearly impossible full of beer. So, I was going to try to fill it up while it's already in the chest...

    Fermentation Chamber

    I just got a Speidel 60L fermenter to replace my carboys and found that it will not work with my chest freezer. The lid doesn't come up a full 90 degrees so there is no way of taking it in and out full of beer. Trying to see other options. I already have the temp controller. Looking for...

    Illinois Basic All Grain Setup

    Just got my eHerms system recently so looking to sell off some equipment. Served me well for 5 gallon batches and was my first all grain setup. This would be good for someone getting into all grain. 8 gallon SS Bayou Classic kettle w/ ball valve, thermometer, false bottom, and bazooka screen...

    Off Flavor After Kegging

    I tried letting it sit as you suggested the other day and it did get a little better as it warmed up. My keezer is set at 38 so it ends up dispensing around 40. It's only a 2 tap keezer but my last 2 tasted fine and I haven't touched the controller since I built it

    Off Flavor After Kegging

    Didn't think I would ever make one of these threads but I searched and cannot seem to find a solution to this issue. So, I made my first batch on my new e herms system and everything went decent until I cooled and carbed my beer in my keezer. It is an ipa with citra, mosaic, and amarillo...
