Also because I don't want to make another thread I'm getting into all grain brewing and I was offered a five-gallon mash tun. Does anyone know the average amount of grain I can fit in there without problems? It's probably one of those ones from northern brewer. I read the threads but all it...

I know it won't remove all the yeast and you can still bottle but I don't understand the reasoning of cold crashing when bottling. The yeast will just reproduce in the bottles anyway making it cloudy...

I bottle all my brews and I have read several threads about cold crashing and bottling but I suppose I just don't understand the reasoning... I get that its a good idea to cold crash when kegging but what's the point of doing it when bottling? Keep in mind that I have only ever cold crashed once...

Ahh ok I’m definitely doing that with mine now.

I get it now! So how did you know where to drill your hole without hitting the freon tubes? Also is there somewhere that showed how to build these (I think I seen it on here but I’m not sure).

I tried to module this recipe layout from a northern brewer kit as I feel like those directions are very well organized. Note: I did not brew this yet but I have had friends that made it and said it was good. Its really red but none of them told me if it tasted like a red wine or not so I can't...

can I ask what those jars are for? Not familiar with using Co2. Is that even what its used for?

Instead of assuming good sanitation you can add a Camden tablet ( some juices may already have this in there) and let it evaporate out for 24 hours.

You guys are hilarious! At least I’ll still always be “Fatter”.

Nice to meet you to!

To be honest I have no clue why I picked this name.

Well if worse comes to worse you all will know me by whatever weird nickname you give me

“I’m on a boat!”

Also Is BeerSmith a one time buy? I guess I'm not understanding their subscriptions and things.

Good concept but someone would probably chime in with some My Little Pony stuff.

I've actually found a PDF exactly for brewing in my area If someone wouldn't mind looking at it for me and explaining it would be greatly appreciated! https://city.milwaukee.gov/ImageLibrary/Groups/WaterWorks/files/WaterQualityBasicsforMilwaukeeMakers.pdf

I had the same problem and got my answer... From what people have told me its just congealed wheat proteins and they cause no harm. Mine was an American wheat as well...

I want to try all grain brewing and I'm going to borrow the equipment from my friend but if I am going to do it I want to do it right. Will tap water make ok beer if I'm just looking to give it a whirl or should I actually do this right away. Keep in mind that I may not follow through...

So just like most things in life you think its a good idea and then down the road, you think its stupid... well this is one of those times. In simpler terms my username makes me seem like a child, is there a way to change it? This is probably the wrong forum to ask this in but O'well.

I’m thinking yeast rafts.
