Finished my Bucket Crushing Station with Corona Mill.:mug: Ran 1/3 lb of 2-row. Thoughts?

mine is 1/2" CPVC but you should be able to buy a CPVC 3/4" to 1/2" adapter for the tubing for under 50 cents I would bet.

I use Brewtarget for free. But my next batch I think will try to trial version of Beersmith and give it a go. I would just buy it for $24 also not worth messing around.

I use a coleman 48 qt rect. cooler for my MLT and batch sparge so no HLT. Also made a CPVC manifold following post on HBT and have gotten about 80 to 84% efficiency on the first three runs. Very easy and cleans up nice.

ok so I'm thinking I'll wash the yeast and repitch into a honey wheat or American wheat bear for a quick Labor day/ SWMBO's bday beer for guest

I currently have EdWort’s Octoberfest Ale in the primary at week 3. I used wyeast koslch yeast and was looking to make the next beer so I can put it on top of the yeast cake. I was looking to make a beer using honey that my parents get from their bee’s since they are now collecting a batch...

Currently in 3rd week of fermenting EdWort's recipe with Kolsch yeast. I have no temp control either and my basement is currently 67 F. Hope it turns out ok.

I was thinking of making a partial (2.5 gallon) AG batch of the Dead Ringer IPA (two heart clone). The question is if I should use my normal all-grain equipment or do a BIAB. My mash tun is a 48 qt coleman cooler with a manifold and I batch sparge. Can I do a 2.5 gallon batch in this or will...

So I'm brewing an All-Grain Irish red ale (kit from NB) 5 gallon batch, using Wyeast Irish Ale yeast that was a washed sample (used a starter). The starter didn’t take off like normal or Krausen like my previous starters but after two days of swirling I had a huge yeast cake at the bottom and...

So I have been thinking that I may want to split my cream ale that I have had in the primary for two weeks now. I was thinking that when I go to bottle I would only do half of the 5 gallon batch and rack the other half onto blueberries and leave it in the secondary for a few weeks. I have...

A brew day sounds fun

Hi all, new to the forum. I started home brewing about 5-6 years ago when I lived in Reno, Nevada. I stopped about four years ago when I moved back to Milwaukee area and the wife didn't tolerate the extract brewing on the apartment stove. Final got back into this spring after a request again...

thanks thats what I thought.

Hi all. Quick question. I went into the NB in Milwaukee yesterday and for the 1st time got my own all grain kit. I went with their recipe for Irish Red. When I got home I realized I grabbed .75 lbs of Belgian CaraPils and not Belgian Caramel Pils. From the grain description they appear...

I would recommend the Groupon from Midwest Today. Just go to groupon and change city to Milwaukee. For $64 plus $12s/h you get a beginner kit, 1 beer kit and $25 gift card. Quite a deal for a beginner.

I could use one of these also.

I'm also looking for an Irish Red recipe. I save some Irish Ale yeast from my Irish blonde Ale kit from NB and decided an Irish Red next. I'm getting setup for starting All Grain and going to have a first go round with a cream Ale recipe kit from NB for the summer and then try to come up...
