I forgot to pick up corn sugar when I bought the ingredients for my ESB. Just wondering what I could substitute instead? Maybe powdered sugar, confectioners sugar, or something else? Just don't want to drive the 40 min back to my HBS, and don't want to use something that will negatively...

I want to do a Partial mash pale ale that I can add some late boil additions to. Pretty new to brewing, so I don't really know much about coming up with recipes. I was wondering if anyone had just a partial mash base Pale ale recipe.

I'm only on my 4th homebrew, but have a pretty good grasp on it. I have read the books How to Brew and Radical Brewing, so I know the basics. I'm looking for a partial mash recipe for a chili beer, maybe a pale ale or I guess whatever you guys can recommend. Just wondering if anyone has...

What's your favorite style of beer, and your favorite brand of that style? I love a great Porter and Rogue's Mocha Porter is my fave.

I meant things other than hops.

Going to brew an ESB on monday, and was wondering if anyone has had any luck with any extras in an ESB. Maybe a late boil addition or post boil addition. Just trying to get some fun ideas for something a little different.

Just went to bottle my 2nd beer, and when I racked it to the bottle bucket, I realized that I had only topped it up to 4 gallons in the primary. Does anyone know how this will affect my beer, and also, should be concerned about bottle bombs with more priming sugar in each bottle?

I'm new to HBT and pretty new to brewing (2 beers brewed so far). I've heard of people using chiles in brewing, and was interested in how it's done (in the boil, in the fermenter, or other). Also what type of beer lends itself best to this type of brewing.

New to HBT and homebrewing too (only 2 brews so far). Looking for a good ESB recipe, anyone got one that they have had success with?
