Ah dude... I added ít directly to the keg as well and it sucked just as bad at first BUT after the first few pints of pure stout peanut butter paste (which tasted awesome by the way, we could sell that ****) it actually began to flow well and was very tasty. The flavor I find is very dependent...

I added the PB2 after about a week in primary because it makes a mess and is easier to deal with there than it is in a keg.

Brew Rebellion IPA from Yucaipa, CA. Worst IPA I ever tasted and I've brewed some bad ones. This tasted like it had all of the early problems you get when you first start brewing. Hopefully those guys can get things on track but seriously, when my first impression was "Why did they bottle...

Well done! I'll have to give the Cap'n a try next time. I have 5 gallons sitting on Reese's cereal right now, should be done this weekend. I modified my recipe to hopefully hit 11-12% but right now it's only at about 10.5%, not sure if it's stalled or if i'll get lucky and it will finish...

Some would say that book is outdated but I started brewing only 2 years ago and found it at the very least informative. I also have read Yeast, and Hops and of course homebrew talk! To be honest the best advice I can give is to just dive in. I went from Mr. beer to all grain in less than 6...

18 hours isn't very long, are you trying to drink it right now? If so then do this: crank the psi to 30 then shake the ever loving **** out of that keg. Shake it for like 5 minutes and prepare to be amazed. I've forced carbed beer in less than 24 hrs with this method though its not ideal. Its...

I would guess people are more vocal about plastic because they have witnessed firsthand the dangers of glass. No one has been injured by a broken better bottle (or at least they aren't going to admit it) so there is nothing to be evangelical about towards not using them. If plastic bottles were...

Not sure if crushing it is a good idea, you may end up with a lot of particles in the beer. Yesterday I took about a cup of the cereal and put it in my French press with two bottles of Narwhal and let it sit for a few hours. It was a pretty good approximation of what the beer tasted like and it...

No, I didn't bother with trying to sanitize it all though I'd imagine that the vodka would taste delicious since all the sugar (if that's really what it is) would dissolve into it rather quickly. Problem is that you'd need a lot of vodka to sanitize an entire box of cereal. You would also be...

I got the idea from Alex Tweet at Modern Times formerly of Ballast Point, the guy who did the Victory at Cereal with Captain Crunch. Picked his brain about the process and went for it. Funny thing is that I found out about Coronado doing their peanut butter stout from one of their reps. He...

You guys/girls finally got me to register, I've been lurking for years and stumbled on this post! I actually brewed the stout Bsquared is talking about with a friend. I provided the recipe, he chose the yeast and cereal and we brewed it on his equipment. Felt pretty awesome to snag that blue...
