That's brilliant

Through the magical word of science :) comes a great tip for when you're dumping out the liquid from your carboy. If you swirl the liquid around while dumping, the liquid will come out evenly and will eliminate the glug, glug effect.

More hops the better :) You're not gonna mess it up if you use more hops. I buy my hops in 2 ounce packets, if i have any left over, i just toss them in at like 5-15 minutes.

Amen brother. Keg it and get to work on another.

Forget the kits dude If you're just starting out, get a 3+ gallon stock pot (around $15), a stainless steel spoon ($5), some hop/grain bags ($10 total), hydrometer ($5), airlock (1) and a fermenting bucket (13) You could brew for less than $50. Even less if you already have a stock pot and spoon.

Take a reading bro....don't worry about the time or bubbles.

just go on out to brewbrothers.biz (in beaverton) and make their IPA....it's really good.

What's up from Beaverton

Geez...how could you forget about your first brew? :) Just trust your hydrometer and taste buds. Take a reading and drink it. If BOTH are good, keg it or bottle.

Uh oh....did i screw up the batch when I pitched the yeast (at 70 degrees) before I poured the wort into the fermenter?

Welcome from the West Side. All HALE BEAVERTON!

congrats bro

I had a copper ale at Raccoon Brewery last night that blew my mind....it's next up on my to do list!

That's a bummer....my garage gets pretty cold in the winter. What about blankets around the fermenter?

I've been reading a lot of different things about what temperature is okay to have your fermenter in....what says all of you?

Anyone ever use their gas grill for a burner? How'd it work?

I was there today

Hey all I'm a newbie from the beer capital of the world. I might be the cheapest human alive, so any tips on cutting down the cost of home brewing would be great. Cheap 10 gal kettles? Cheap burners? etc...
