Great idea!!!! I would love to see some pics when you get it set up

It's way past time to post the resolution to this issue. So here we go. I was listening to the BN quite a bit trying to figure this issue out and decided to drop Jamil a line and ask him about this. After several emails I sent JZ a few of my sample bad batches. Once he tasted them, we began...

We bring a bit of class this place.... Welcome to the addiction!!!!!

I agree 100%, extract is not cheating and is a great way to learn the process. You can make some fantastic beer with extract and don't let anyone tell you otherwise!!! I have been doing all grain for just a few months but I will always keep extract brewing in my back pocket for a quick and easy...

By the way I'm chalking this up to being a bit tipsy, too

I've been reading through some of the "New Posts" tonight and for some reason some of the thread names have just struck me as funny: "Can you do this with yeast?" "What are second runnings?" but my fav is "Foaming Pilsner wort" I'm sorry but I just got a chuckle at the names. I'm...

I'm sorry but "Foaming Pilsner wort" just make me laugh

Congrats on first batch!!! As far as the o-ring falling in to your pale (if I read this right) as long as you cleaned and sanitized it there shouldn't be a problem. There are tons of posts in this forum about parts and pieces falling in to carboys and Ale Pales, and every response is as long as...

I brewed several Kolsch and Blonde Ales...those seem to always be hits with the friends

This is really where I was going and maybe should have asked my question more specifically. What differences will I see if I go with a smaller filtering area compared to full screen over the diameter of the MLT, as BrewBeemer spoke about?

Hey Everybody, I wanted to get you take on a purchase that I'm considering. I'm looking to convert a sankey keg to a MLT and found this conversion kit at More Beer. MoreBeer | Weldless Mash Keg Conversion - Stainless It seems that the false bottom only covers the concave portion of the...

So I wanted to find out what you guys have in terms of fermentation control, lagering, and storing equipment. Right now I have a chest freezer with a temp controller on it that will only hold one carboy. So if I decide to lager I've tied up my fermentation control for a while. What you do you...

Thanks, I'll let him know about World Market...I might start sending him some stuff too

I'm trying to help my Dad gain an appreciation for beer and want to point him in the direction of a good place to pick up good beer by the bottle in Amarillo, Tx. Does anyone have any good recommendations?

My next door neighbor wants me to try and brew a Bischoff clone. Does anyone have a recipe for it? Unfortunatly it's not available in Texas (at least I haven't found it and the local beer stores won't/can't order it), then again I might not have looked hard enough. **EDIT** Forgot to mention...

Take a look at this and see if it help... How to Brew - By John Palmer - Common Off-Flavors It might point you in the right direction

I can't remember what the report says off the top of my head, I'll take a look tonight. Thanks for the heads up.

Will do Sacc. I just picked up a recipe at AHS and will probably brew this weekend. I'll let you know when. Thanks for the offer.

On ten plus previous batches this has never been a problem with the same fermentation methods. That being said, I could have been really lucky!!! I'm leaning toward the brew kettle. This started when I added this kettle and has occured in every batch since. I think this is what I'm going to...

Yes, I still get the off-flavors with the temp control. I thought that rinsing was an issue on the first batch, so I did a full cleaning and rinsed the hell out of everything with both hot and cool water. With regard to fermentation time, I let the fermentation go about 5 days and check...
