    Local homebrew shop closing it's doors. What now?

    So did some muddling around and found that Homebrewsupply.com DOES allow you to order even 0.12oz or rice hulls for a penny! The only issue being their site doesn't allow you to attribute items to a specific grain bill. So if I wanted to get 5 grain bills of all different recipes, I'm not sure...

    Local homebrew shop closing it's doors. What now?

    Thanks atom. I have a digital kitchen scale, but with mills STARTING at $100, this isn't an answer for me.

    Local homebrew shop closing it's doors. What now?

    My local HBS is closing in two weeks... PERMANENTLY :( I know of Northern Brewer, and I like that they have low cost shipping and can order many grain bills that they'll even mill for you, but there's a problem. I'm a 1Gal brewer. I have plenty of all grain equipment for full and half...

    Keg o-ring fell into finished beer

    Racked a beer into the keg yesterday. Closed it up and set my keezer to 35 degrees to get it nice and cold. Today I opened it to add gelatin and somehow the o-ring fell off the cap and sank to the bottom of the keg. I added the gelatin and put a new o-ring on the cap, sealed her shut, purged...

    Kegging and Clarity

    A weeks after raking my initially clear beer and still... Pond water. I used super moss in the boil. Will adding gelatin be overkill? Iced used each separately but not both in the same beer. Also thanks govner. Clear Beer Draught system intrigues me. Sure you pour from the top but I can...

    Kegging and Clarity

    I thought chill haze too. Let it sit for an hour, no change. Not hazy, just murky/yeasty. I think Revvy is spot on. Still if that's the case, then would my sample taking every few days impede the clearing process?

    Kegging and Clarity

    So I made this mild, and within a week in primary it was clear. I mean crystal clear. While still beer colored I could see my finger on the other side of my test tasting glass when I pulled a sample. racked it to a keg making sure to miss the cake, and when I take a sample (two days in to...

    When your mash tun is too small

    I have a 19L mash tun and got invited to a brewout where were all going to be making a high Gravity (14%) stout. So if I don't happen to be able to get it all in, do I mash twice and blend them? I'd hate to only make 3 gallons. Options?

    Forgot to D-rest my Schwarzbier

    Did you bleed the keg at all during the process PGEduadro?

    Forgot to D-rest my Schwarzbier

    Pulled a sample. Slicker than water for sure. Not much butter, but a hint.

    Forgot to D-rest my Schwarzbier

    Noticed the bung in my shwarzbier was kinda sitting ontop of the carboy in the hole. Not snugly seated. I noticed this when cleaning one of my kegs. It had been 10 days and I didn't want to chance any more air getting in (if any had), so I racked it off the cake into a clean keg. It hit me...

    We no need no stinking beer gun...

    Qq. How would I have both an air chuck AND have pressure to my keg? Sorry, have been legging for a while but not seeing the obvious.

    Carbonating at room temp

    If you have to wait 2-3 weeks to force carb properly, then why do it at all? Why not bottle condition? I'm in this boat of (1)have a keg, tank and regulator and (2) nowhere to refrigerate it. I too have mine set to 32psi @ 75 F. Side question, does volume of beer matter? What if it's a...

    No shutoff on regulator :/

    Got a Cornelius brand regulator on eBay and I have a question. It claims to have a co2 check valve, but it doesn't have a shutoff. Do I need to buy a shutoff before force carbing? If no, will the check valve prevent liquid from coming back up into the regulator? I'm new at legging and just...

    What happened? Yeast immediately fizzled.

    Pretty sure I just witnessed a great war between Australia and Great Britain in yeast form! I have a 5 gallon batch of homebrew that looked like no fermentation was happening, at all. The Aussie yeast I pitched wasn't doing jack. My local shop didn't have any more so I bought some British yeast...
