    Stirplate for Carboys?

    One of my brewing friends is a Microbiologist.(ok, two of the brewing guys are, but that's to be expected, for now we will just focus on the one). He has a great explination of what you are looking for in a starter, and why I think a large stir plate would revolutionize home brewing. As you...

    orange peel

    Don't worry, it will be great. Might just notice the orange more, maybe more aroma, but it will be great.

    Rhubarb Beer

    4 stalks of rhubarb is what I used for 5 gallons, and came out nice and tart, but not overly so. I fermented in 2 5gallon fermenters, the wlp001 came out great, but I fermented the other with wlp051. I always make 10 gallons, and split it into 5 gallons, so I can use 2 different kinds of...

    Orange Peel in a Mac and Jacks Clone

    I have been working on this clone for 2 years. I just got a growler from my brother in Seattle, and did a side by side comparison. The only difference is the Mac and Jacks is slightly sweeter. I am in the process of propagating the house yeast from the growler now. The color is exact...

    Orange Peel in a Mac and Jacks Clone

    Use sweet orange peel in this one for the flavor add at 30 min, a half ounce per 5 gallon, you can either use dried , or fresh, both work great. The fresh takes a little longer to settle down in the bottle, but the dried tastes great right away.

    coca-cola stout
