awesome guys, that is just what I was looking for.

I finished brewing a Founders Breakfast Stout clone; color looks great, I tossed in 3 oz of chocolate and a few scoops of good coffee on a whim. I took the recipe off of the recipe sections of this site. The extract version. I've got big hopes! OG was 1070. I've got an English bitter to...

Howdy, I am looking for a place to buy bulk ingredients; once upon a time some buddies gave me a vendors sheet with bulk ingredients, I could get a 60 pound bucket of liquid extract for $75.00 bucks or so. I can't find the sheet with the vendor! I'll ask my LHBS for a bulk discount but I'd...

Thanks for the great advice. For next time; besides aging much longer and keeping hydrometer data, should I add sulfites or something to kill any remaining yeast before I bottle?

I did not. I didn't realize that the honey would not be metabolized by the yeast within a couple of months. I thought that was adequate time for all free sugars to be consumed. Now I know it is not!

I made a cyser this fall; it sat in secondary for a month and a half before I bottled it in wine bottles last weekend. It was very clear after sitting for the six weeks. I pulled aside the last two bottles because I got greedy and sucked up some trub which caused cloudiness. It still drank...

Hi out there, I've been reading the site for a while but have only just started posting. Great site. I've learned tons!
