Oh ? What is it show pictures ? I recently just found a 3-4gal pot in my balcony, Ive cleaned it now I just migth rinse it with some 10% bleach solution and rinse it really reallly well, perhaps mayb even doing a boil to make sure all bleach is gone :) I rinse my bottles like 5-6 times with...

Well with the right size pots I would be able to do a full scale batch, but with a 3gal and 1gal its impossible :)

LOL I still cant beleive you guys actually thought I put that much into it, a beer that most expenses come from HOPS ? Thanks for explanation on the lovibond.

OMG no not 14oz LOOL FUNNY STUFF, and I wasnt even drunk!! I used 14grams!! GRAMS I TELL YA!!!

Ok guys, on formulating a recipe, what exactly does 10L or 20L mean when talking about a grain ? Size of crush ? Is it all that important cuz at my local brew shop, they dont specify any information, I can however get a look at what theyr selling before I buy it though.

Well the hop tea is fermenting well, as for me I need a new appointment to the grain store to make a serious batch. If it helps it was only a 45min boil with the hops added.

Not sure, I need some advice, I really want to co-ordinate the grape with type of yeast lol I also dont want to have to bother with PH testing, and adding acid blends.

LOL IDK I just think its a NOOB yeast that they sell because it ferments high levels of alcohol quickly, and without fuss. What would you suggest for an "alicante" or "ruby cabernet" type of grapes ? ? I really havnt got a taste to wine, and havnt tried many from the store. I have the ability...

Well Ive made my cyser! Fermenting very very well, I think I used too much yeast but im sure that wont harm! The recipe is as followed : 3 (330ml) cans of frozen apple concentrate mixed to produce a batch of 2gallons. Tap water as usual, and honey to SG of 1.074, 3/4 AT MOSTpacket yeast. the...

Well I have made this before and it turned out going lower, so im only expecting the same results. The yeast came with the kit, its cooper stout. From my knowledge it seems PM's and AGs have higher FG's, than malt extract kits. The SG was 1.038 Theyr all bottled now, and something funny I...

LoL ive seen a few recipes using up to 4oz of hops, I was intentionally trying to make it hoppy, but did not read anywhere about filtering them out of the wort after boil. Thx for advice, and next brew I will most likely try and follow a recipe to the TEE.

Yeah, I try to avoid plastic as much as possible especially for warmer liquids.(Since My measuring cup is plastic), I'll go by that formula on my next mash. I really need a better mash bag, the girl who worked there was nice enough to let me have 2 for free, but there like not the greatest mash...

Ohh, kinda difficult to measure it out though. Does anyone know how to calculate the amount of liters per pot ? ? Its something like 3.94 x height / radius ?

Gravity was after my boil, and i used 6 liters in total for mashing/sparging. I did not filter out the hops

I definitly did something wrong, Im calculating 90% eff.

Ahh thx, ill get a full listing of their grain next time, so i know what to substitute with what! My AG turned out nasty, Its nastily bitter, the hops foamed up during the boil and left Lots of green mucky stuff around the edges of the pot, im not sure if anyone encountered this, but was i...

Well im 25minutes into the boil, its only at 190f now rising slowly, just added my hops. This is a small scale brew just to get the feel for mashing temps and holding them there, its pretty hard without twin pots. I used 15oz Pale Malt, 6 oz wheat malt 1/2oz cascade hops plan to do 60min...

I was brewing a beer that was intended to be mixed with 25L of water, and used all the malt on just 19-20L, and ive waiting 2days and the gravity wont go below 1.010, it might be at 1.008 but I cant guarantee. I tried twiling bubbles away, and all those hydrometer tricks but it seems the...

Im about to calculate my efficiency, but kinda wierded out on it. Dont I have to calculate for the grain soaking up water, and also water lost to steam ? ?

I want to get the max bitterness out of my cascade hops, and i would like some for aroma and flavour, i know thats only 10min boil, but what temps are we talkin about here ?
