I haven't had any time to brew yet this year. I know how sad that sounds but I did manage to build a trellis and am finishing my fermentation chamber. I am also almost done with my first recipe and will post for.critique as I'm pretty sure I have no idea what I'm doing. Pics of the trellis to...

Wow... I rinse all bottles with very hot water after consuming and then let them dry. They are stored until bottling day in boxes with no lids and then I dunk in StarSan for a few minutes and empty and fill. No infections yet but your post makes me wonder if I'm asking for one.

That's why I bottle condition in two coolers with lids. I haven't had one yet but I imagine if I do my cleanup and subsequent trouble with SWMBO will be a lot less than yours.

I just thought it was funny that you either want to barely taste coors light or not taste it at all. I for one take a six pack somewhere and everyone wants to put my beer in the fridge. I say it was cold when I took it out of my fridge and like it when my beer gets more towards room...

How do I get those nifty labels and how can I adjust the reading to include proper drinking temp

Orbit and Barley Finland. Maybe no more posting with my phone.

Orbit? Stupid auto correct. It but

My buddy and I got into homebrewing last year and have really enjoyed it. He does however still drink bud,coors, keystone,etc... I have started to try bigger and more diverse beer. Today marks my first barley Finland I have to say that its like getting slapped in the face with hops and malts...

My buddy had his bachelor party on saturday and we went on a local brewery tour. We were at The Great River Brewery in Davenport,IA Great beer. I had the Farmer Brown and the Hoppapotomus. Both were delicious. The next place we stopped was **** in comparison. Their brown was real sweet on...

So my hops are in the ground. I planted Brewer's, cascade, centennial and willamette. I've only come across 1 problems as of yet: I built the damn trellis and thought I could get a buddy to help me push it up and into the ground. Problem is i used green wood and it is still wet and heavy as...

Ok I think I will go with a mix of bird, bunny and Goat poo and mix it throughly with dirt in my compost heap before applying to my hops. Thanks for all the answers.

So I have options of goat, pig, bird or horse poop to fertilize my hops this year. This will also be the first year I am attempting any kind of garden growing. Is it possible to over-poo a garden? Should I mix up all different kinds of poo and call it a day or is there one that works better...

So my 4 rhizomes are arriving monday along with 4lbs of hops to tide me over for a couple of months. I don't have my trellis built yet and was wondering what to do with the rhizomes until I can get my garden bed built and trellis up (1 week most likely) Thanks in advance.

I purchased this sealer. What type of bags are cheapest and still work?

Nice

Just ordered a pound each of cascade, chinook, and centennial from hopsdirect.

Sounds good. I think I'll get some Cascades, Centennials, and Chinook. Now to start the recipe. I'll be looking at other recipes to get an idea of what to start with and go from there. Thanks for the answers

I am ordering 3 different hops on Tuesday. I would like suggestions on which ones go good together. I am a big fan of IPAS that fill your nose and mouth with hop flavor and aroma but dont melt your teeth on the backend. Any help would be appreciated. Oh and I'm going to tailor my hop...

Thanks for the quick reply
