    stubby beer bottles

    I was thinking of using these for a Barley Wine I am planning. Click the link and scroll down a little past half way, 1/4 wine bottles. http://www.homebrewit.com/aisle/2060?gclid=CLuZmb7G9YkCFRUPVAod4yiMVQ

    Dumb Question Perhaps...

    Is there anyplace to purchase craft brews online or via the phone? I live in a very rural area of West Virginia...I am fortunate to have access to Sam Adams, Great Lakes, some Red Hook and hit or miss on Sierra Nevada. Would love to get a bottle or two of some of the beers I read about on...

    Commercially Available Smoked Porter?

    I have been reading about smoked porters and would be interested in trying one. At this point, I do not have the knowledge or equipment to do a full-grain which it appears would be required to homebrew a smoked porter. Thanks!

    Flavoring a Honey Ale? Or Lawnmower Lager?

    My wife kinda likes SA Cherry Wheat, wanting to brew something for her... I have two extract kits, and some extract flavorings. Let me know what you think might work, or not... One kit is a Honey Ale, the other is a "Lawnmower" Lager. I am thinking of doing the Honey Ale with Blackberry...

    So Far So Good, Bubbling After 3 Hours

    Yes, I poured it...right into the fermenter in which I had just used for my Pale Ale. I did not sanitize the fermenter itself, just the lid, airlock and stopper used with it. These particular kits actually used the same yeast and I had read here that you can obtain fermentation faster that...

    So Far So Good, Bubbling After 3 Hours

    Sorry, sure some of you are tired of reading my posts already. Poured my stout onto the yeast cake from my Pale Ale, three hours later and getting bubbles. I hope it continues and it works out. I sanitized the lid, airlock etc....but was unsure of what, if anything, I needed to do with the...

    Pitching Onto Yeast Cake II - Time Frame?

    I will be putting a stout on top of a yeast cake from a pale ale. Wondering how soon, or how much time I might have, between siphoning the pale ale into secondary and pouring the stout onto the yeast cake. Would I have a couple of hours, perhaps overnight, that the yeast would be ok...or...

    When Pitching On Top of Yeast Cake...Stir?

    So...do I need an aerator (sp), or special equipment, if I am going to pitch onto an existing cake? Sorry, I'm a Noob with a capital 'N'. Thanks. Pat

    When Pitching On Top of Yeast Cake...Stir?

    Should I just pour my wort and then seal up the fermenter? Or should it be stirred up? I will be putting a Stout on top of a Pale Ale... Thanks all for the help!:mug:

    Couple Questions from a Noob...

    Got it! Thanks...I plan on doing just that. Thanks for being patient with the dumb questions. I have a pale ale in the fermenter now, plan on siphoning it into a second fermenter (not sure how long to leave it before bottling) and putting a stout on the yeast cake. Am thinking that I...

    Couple Questions from a Noob...

    So just pour the beer, off the yeast, into a second fermenter prior to bottling? Just to let it sit for a couple of weeks? Is that 'racking'? How cool must the wort be to pour on top of the yeast cake? Just siphon/drain out the first batch, and poor the wort right on top of it....sanitize...

    Couple Questions from a Noob...

    I did a couple searches and could not find specific answers, so thought I would ask... Can someone explain the purpose, and method, of a secondary ferment? I am using a bucket fermenter with the 'tap' at the bottom to allow me to use a hose to move the fermented beer to a bottling bucket...
