I've never tried using blueberry, but the flavor of blueberries and fruits in general doesn't come from sugar alone. Am I wrong? That being said blueberries have such a subtle flavor, I would imagine you would need to use an obscene amount of blueberries to impart that flavor. Extracts may be...

Just bought one. Pull the trigger

Thanks guys. Fermenter temp is down to 71 but the sulfur smell is still coming through the airlock. I’ll follow you advice and test the gravity a couple times and then transfer to secondary

What should be the gameplan here? Should I let it sit in primary for a couple months? Should I transfer it to secondary in a couple weeks and let it sit for a month or 2? I forgot to mention that I plan on adding pureed watermelon in the secondary. Should I wait to do this until the sulfur...

I was freaking out. I've never experienced this with any other brews so I thought I must have messed up. Unfortunately that is the best temperature control I currently have. I live in FL and the and the that is the coolest place in my house. Everywhere else is 72-75 degrees. I have 2 fridges...

I didn't think about this, but not a bad idea at all.

I may have to look into a forum like that. I am picky about the way speakers and subs sound, but I have no clue about the intricacies of sound bars/sound systems.

Thank you everyone for the suggestions. The room is not massive. I have 2 family rooms in my house and this will be for the smaller of the 2. I bought a 58 inch UHD to mount and I'm just looking for a soundbar/sub combo that I can use for both movies/TV shows and will put out a decent amount of...

I brewed a wheat beer Saturday using German 2row, wheat malt, and flaked wheat, using SafBrew T-58 as my yeast, and Huell Melon as my hops. I recently purchased a 7 gallon SS brewtech BME and used it for the first time yesterday. I filled it up with hot water and PBW and scrubbed the inside and...

Figured I’d give an update for anyone following along. Tried it yesterday because I couldn’t wait. It’s definitely not done carbonating. One more week and it will be good to go. Flavor was pretty good: malty, perfect balance of bitterness, not hoppy, not fully carbonated and the head dissipated...

I went to Best Buy and listened to a few. It's still difficult for me to gauge because there was no remote to mess around with the settings. On top of that they only had about 12 different soundbars that worked/were up for display.

I'm on a mission to find a soundbar that is 4k compatible. I have become hung up reading reviews on Amazon. There's always a few people that complain about every single soundbar and now I cant make a decision. I'm looking to spend 450 or under and want some with great quality bass that sounds...

I don’t want to detract from the watermelon flavor and definitely don’t want to use watermelon flavoring. I guess watermelon doesn’t have a very strong flavor to begin with. If I amped up the watermelon to 7-8 cups for a 5-6 gallon batch do you think the sugars from the fruit would dry out the...

Why didn’t I see this thread before?! Thanks I’m looking to make this subtly sweet, not crazy, but definitely a little. Do you think this recipe is more on the dry side? I was also looking at using SafBrew T-58. Do you have any experience using this yeast? I heard it leaves a little spicy...

I'm looking to make a watermelon wheat beer (all-grain) and could use some assistance. 1) I found a recipe, but would love to alter it/find additional recipes that someone has had success with. 2) How much watermelon should I use in a 5-6 gallon batch so the flavor will make it to the...

For beers with low gravities like this one, is it still recommended to wait a full 3 weeks before opening a bottle?

Pretty accurate. I'm on my 4th brew now, have an SS Brewtech 7 gallon fermenter coming my way. I was looking at a 15 gallon pot, but the 20 gallon is only 50 bucks more so I'm probably going to buy that. Then I'll need a pump because that much liquid is too hard to lift, etc. etc.

I bottled yesterday and tasted it before I did. I'm overall impressed, and can't wait until it's carbonated and cold. My fiancee broke my hydrometer so I didn't get to test the FG unfortunately. I'll keep you guys posted on final product and let you know what others think of it. Great read...

I have a little under 2.5 gallons of liquid. Not sure how much priming sugar/water to add to bottle. Any suggestions?

Appreciate the help!
