I was just wondering where you folks keep your primary/secondary fermentors to keep the temperature at a constant. I have my primary fermentor (which has an IPA in it)in a office we don't use, the 6.5 gallon bucket is wrapped in a blanket and the thermometer stuck to it says 70*, I'm thinking...

What brewing software do you use?

How much hops were in that brew?

Sierra Nevada Torpedo Clone fermenting... I can't wait to try this one. I need to get another 6.5 gallon bucket for my next batch... What to do next.... Hmmmmm

I got home from work and the top of my bucket was soaked with beer... Airlock was plugged up. I pulled out the airlock and the bucket let out a "aaaaaaaaaah" . I used the tubing that came with my auto siphon as a blowoff and stuck it in a gallon jug filled with Starsan. Thank god I caught it...

I MADE BEER! Well there's liquid in a 6.5 gallon bucket, Lets not get too crazy until you try one in a bottle. I made my first attempt at brewing yesterday. All in all it went pretty well. Hops were added as planned, no boil overs just a stinky house (This will probably be the last time...

Thanks for all the info.. My new dilemma. Do I ferment in a 6.5 gallon bucket or a 5 gallon carboy with blowoff tube? Mind you this is going to be a 5 gallon batch. I have two 5 gallon glass carboys and one 6.5 gallon bucket in my inventory.

Thanks guys

Is there a certain time you use dry yeast? Like when using a beer with a low OG? Thanks Larry

Went to my not so LHBS (it was about an hour away) but man did they have everything, were knowledgeable and I will definitely go back. Had to get some stuff for the yeast starter and some other goodies. So I sanitize everything, smack the yeast pack....yada yada yada get the LME boiling turn...

I thought I went through this entire thread. I must have missed where somebody did an extract version

So I take that as a no then..............???

I posted this in extract but though it would get more action here Hello guys/gals, just wondering if anybody have a recipe for an extract clone of NEBCOs Gandhi Bot, or something darn close. It's one of my favorite beers, my fiance loves it too so I was just thinking of brewing something...

Hello guys/gals, just wondering if anybody have a recipe for an extract clone of NEBCOs Gandhi Bot, or something darn close. It's one of my favorite beers, my fiance loves it too so I was just thinking of brewing something like this for my second batch. Thanks!!!

Id like to make a sessions IPA with a lot of hoppiness. My fiances father let me borrow one of his carboys so I may try to get two batches going soon

What hops did you use for dry hop for the evil twin?
