Thanks y'all. I'm going to do it today. And make a maple wheat brew.

i am unable to cold crash.. i dont have the room.. is it going to be an issue if i dont?

Okay. I made a imperial oatmeal stout a few weeks ago. I'm going to rack it over and add frozen cherries to it. My questions are: Should I bring the cherries to a boil, to sterilize them? And will letting it sit in secondary for 8 months be different/better than letting it sit for a month in...

When I did my coffee porter I course ground my coffee the. Put it with whiskey in the fridge for a week and adds it all to the secondary.

Can anyone tell me how much table sugar and water to use for bottling. I don't feel like driving 30 min each way to the beer store to buy corn sugar.

Any jolly pumpkin beer

Thanks guys. Just checking. Working in a kitchen we have a lot. And if it would work I would have tried it. But since it won't I'm not going to.

Could you use this yeast for brewing?

So I want to use my yeast for making bread. Just wondering of anyone has a good recipe. And I also want to wash it an be able to use it again for brewing. Im still new here just looking for help. Thanks!

Put your primary in a plastic tote add water and ice to it. Change it out once or twice a day.

Check out SAMs club. Mine is only 6 gallon, but they might have larger ones on the Internet. I paid 35 for it.

Use kitchen tongs.

Ok, so I am a little light on bottles, due to the fact I brewed two at the same time and haven't drank fast enough to have enough empty bottles. I have a few empty growlers (flip top with rubber gasket) would it be ok to bottle in them?

I boil with my lid partially on (apartment stoves are that powerful) and haven't had a problem.

Night before I brew or even earlier in the day before I start I make 4 trays of ice and put two gallons of water in the fridge.

No it's not my first. It was free. My old roommate got me my own kit as a going away present (moved from Michigan to Virginia). It came in the kit and I just wanted to know what I could do to it to get more abv. Then after reading how dextrose and sugar will think it out I thought about adding...

I know. I can never leave things alone.

thank you.. that is real good infromation.. i will just make it as is like you suggested.. i was also thinking about adding some chocolate when i do my boil.. would you suggest just cocoa powder or maybe hot cocoa mix? or just go old chocolate chips or bar? i would use dark chocolate if i added...

I didn't buy it. It was a gift.

Will the dextrose "thin" the body? I want to keep it pretty think. Well as think as it would normally be. The last stout that I made had very little body to it. I'm just a little worried about messing it up.
