After many years of enjoying the hobby, I've come to the end and made the decision to no longer brew beer. This has left me with quite a bit of equipment that I've managed to collect/build over the years that I no longer require use of and am looking to sell. I'm located in Brookline, MA and due...

As always, I suggest simply relaxing and having a homebrew.....in about two weeks of course! There's really no reason to dump it out because you forget do something at this stage. Is there a chance some sort of bug got into your beer? Of course but there's also a chance that everything is...

I suppose as a general rule if there is still visible fermentation to let it keep going. However even after the visual stops the gravity may still be too high - the only way for sure to know where you are at is to take a gravity reading. If you are really set against taking the reading I would...

Well it does happen from time to time for sure. I find it amazing that the beers that give you the biggest scares tend to be your best tasting ones :)

Thanks for the quick reply. I've been brewing for over two years now, but I'm still haunted by an early batch that got infected so I've been some what irrationally paranoid since :)

I'm very good with sanitation and take a lot of care in cleaning and sterilizing all of the equipment/materials I work with. I do have a question about something that happened though. I was creating a yeast starter which I was putting into a mason jar. I fill the mason jar after cleaning it...

It was $15 because it was an event! We got to hear Ben Stein stumble over his words, not be funny, and prove he knows nothing about beer :)

I was hoping the film would have had a wider variety of brewers' stories to tell, and while it started off like that, it ended up being the Sam and Rhonda show....I still love Sam however. While I agree with the above poster about how Rhonda's story does bring light to difficulties of...

Ich möchte deine Sinnsprüche essen. :D

Hello/Hallo! Was simply wondering if anyone one from these forums are German or speak German. I am still learning, but am absolutely in love with the language, so I'd never pass up the opportunity to speak to anyone in it, especially about beer. Thanks!!!

Hey Yooper thanks for the quick and helpful reply! While I'm not ultimately worried about the fermentation happening at the upper edge of the yeast's tolerance, I was just wondering is there anything I can do now to limit the esters...besides simply moving the carboy to a cooler location to...

Alright, well first off I would like to say hello. I'm a twenty three your old guy from Northern New Jersey and I've been brewing for about a year. Started with a good ol' Mr. Beer kit, went to extract brewing, and finally made the switch to all-grain about two months ago. Looking forward to...
