    Whatever Happened to Joe?

    I don’t think he’s posted anything in a few years. Last I heard he was opening up a homebrew store. I still go back and watch his videos.

    Cleaning a used keg for its first batch of homebrew

    That’s all I’ve ever done. Sometimes if I still smell the syrup I’ll do it twice. Then when I reassemble I replace the o-rings and then starsan.

    Bottling Time

    Trying one a week will help ease your anxiety. It’s the hardest part to learn. Soon as you bottle, brew another batch and keep brewing. It’ll build your pipeline up and make waiting a little easier. once you try them and keep notes you’ll soon find out how much better they are after they...

    Adventures in Homebrewing Clearance - Fermenters, Kegs, etc.

    I looked on the website and the liners aren’t too expensive but it also says you can use without them, that they just make clean up easier

    No Fermentation bubbles

    Yea you just have to wait it out. You can’t go by your airlock activity. Do you have any krausen in your fermenter? You should see a little ring around your bucket above your wort

    Bottling Time

    Yep... patience. You’ll need lots of it. I always say 2 weeks and put 1 bottle in the fridge for a few days and try it. It’ll still taste a little off. Then 1 bottle at 3 weeks and try it. You’ll notice a difference. Then 1 at 4 weeks and if you like the way they taste then put them all in the...

    Adding flavor to homebrew beer

    I have used brewers best flavorings before. One of the things I don’t like about any of the flavorings is to me it leaves a really weird aftertaste to me. Almost like cough syrup. Most of the time if I let it bottle condition that weird taste will fade but so will the flavor. I would use it...

    Foam in airlock on top of carboy (plastic)

    Probably won’t help now but for future reference I prop the end of the fermenter with the spigot up with a 2x4 about 3-4 days before bottling. It works real good if you cold crash. Right before you get ready to bottle take the board out and slowly put your fermenter down. Then all your trub is...
