I'm planning on making a yeti clone scaled up to 10 gallons... i've never done a 10 gallon brew or brewed a stout. Here's a link to the recipe: http://beersmithrecipes.com/viewrecipe/12542/yeti-clone-ver-20 I've got 2 questions: since this will be roughly 40 pounds or grain, will it...

Thanks for the replies. I'll probably use a corny since I've got a couple extras.

I'm planning on brewing a Yeti clone imperial Russian stout soon to be ready by the fall. I've never brewed a stout but I've always heard they need to age several months. What's the best way of aging? In bottles or in a keg? Or some other container like a glass carboy? Also is it best to age at...

I went to a beer fest over this past weekend and one of the beers I liked was a Peach Wheat Beer by RJ Rockers... I think the name was Son of a Peach. Anyways, I brewed a 5 gallon batch of Bell's Oberon Clone (wheat beer) last weekend. I was thinking I could siphon off 1 gallon and add peaches...

I'm brewing a Bell's Oberon clone this Sunday. My recipe says the OG should be 1.070 and I'm doing a 5 gallon batch. I've got a 6 pack of Bell's Amber Ale I'm collecting yeast from. What's the proper way of getting the most yeast needed for this recipe? I don't want to wait too late if I need to...

i actually used most of the pilsner malt last weekend. I did 2 1 gallon batches of a pale ale recipe. On the 2nd batch I used the pilsner in place of the 2 row to see what the taste difference will be.

We've been looking at those. We are getting 4 (2 for me and 2 for a buddy) shipped for $160. $40 each is a good price for those.

I've still got a ways to go... adding wheels, burners, plumbing, etc... but at least I have the base done. I couldn't believe how long it took to weld each joint an then grind it smooth afterwards. But I'm happy with how it turned out. I've never welded before and always had a little fear about...

I got a harbor freight welder for christmas and put it to use the past weekend. Here's my start of my brew stand.

At our last Home Brew meeting they had a drawing and a buddy of mine won about 2.25 pounds of flaked wheat and 3.75 of pilsner malt. He gave the ingredients to me. I'm curious if there are any good recipes that would take both. Any suggestions?

What size square tubing are you using?

i did the same thing on my last brew but then I never found the stir bar. somehow I dumped the trub and didn't find the bar

I made a 5 gallon batch of an amber ale yesterday. I was thinking after the primary fermentation is done to rack off 2 or 3 gallons of it into 1 gallon jugs and dry hop with different ingredients...I was thinking Japaleno and coffee. Anyone had any experience doing this or any suggestions for...

You must be talking about Southern Brewing. I checked that place out a month ago and that's the best LHBS I've seen. Ours in Jacksonville is not so nice.

has anyone tried this: http://gluttoncooking.blogspot.com/2013/01/harvesting-yeast-from-blowoff.html seems like it would take care of 3 issues... plenty of place for the foam to blow; a good way of getting yeast for a starter and prevents the blow off liquid from being sucked back into the...

I quit trying to use air locks a few brews ago. Seems like there always getting clogged and making a big mess. I always use a blow off tube into a gallon jug with sanitizer.

I appreciate the info

my son is in a leadership program so we'll either be staying at the following two hotels: Hyatt Fair Lakes or Hyatt Dulles Hotel

i'm not really sure of the hotel yet so I'm not sure what part of town. if it's good, I'd be willing to travel a little.

We'll be in Washington DC for week this summer for my 6th graders trip. Anyways I always like to try good beers. Anything around DC (beer-wise) that I should check out?
