    Jeez . . . I have a hard enough time finding 12oz. bottles. I have to schedule bottling days around bottle acquisitions! So jealous - congrats.

    Sweet Stout Deception Cream Stout

    Brewing this tomorrow! Question: Can I use some of the DME from this recipe to make the 1.5L yeast starter and then pitch the whole thing into the wort. You know, do the boil and then the yeast pitch will be my final top-off to 5 gals. OR Should I use extra DME, make the starter, decant and...

    very low specific gravity at bottling

    (1.050-1.005)*131.25 = ABV 5.91% <----------I think that equation accounts for priming sugar as well - no idea really . . . http://www.rooftopbrew.net/abv_calculator.php says it should be around 6% Hope that you enjoy the brew!

    Bottle Conditioning on an Angle

    H O L Y C R A P SuperJunior. You display you brew like a wine connoisseur. Back to OP. I don't see a need to collect the sediment in the corner. Mine seems to condense into a thin little disk that sticks to the bottom even when up-righted. As long as I'm gentle with the pour, the whole...

    Wanting to show off my 1st brew! Brewer's Best - Belgian Wit

    Why o why doesn't my beer taste like store bought? Perhaps it's the fresh ingredients? Non-metallic taste? The fact that it is best served in a glass - how inconvenient! Hooked on my new hobby. Thanks a lot forum. Dang, I sound pretentious.

    Wanting to show off my 1st brew! Brewer's Best - Belgian Wit

    Story: A little while back I went on vacation with pretty much my whole extended family. Standard protocol is to bring a case of beer for everyone to partake in. I don't drink a lot but, when I do, it had better be good or I just don't bother. I brought Sam Adams Oktoberfest and a case of...

    Wanting to show off my 1st brew! Brewer's Best - Belgian Wit

    Thanks fellas. Labels made in photoshop, printed and adhered w/ milk - could also use avery labels but the milk actually sticks better! I can send you a copy of my template if you like. Agave wit = tequila beer? I don't know but I like the sound of it!

    Wanting to show off my 1st brew! Brewer's Best - Belgian Wit

    Finally poured my first brew's first glass after 2 weeks in the bottle. For a first brew, I am pleasantly surprised. Poured with a huge head, but quickly dissipated before the iPhone was ready for action - 1/4" head stuck around until the sweet finish. Did not taste Blue Moon'ie like I...

    First post, first brew, first label!

    Brewed my first batch ever from a Brewer's best Witbier extract kit. It's due to be bottled this Saturday. Instead of twiddling my thumbs during this terrible thing you guys call "patience", I cooked up a label in Photoshop. Sized to fit on a standard 5164 Avery label but I tried the milk...
