    12 Beers of Christmas 2013 Edition! (Need Brewers!)

    I'm in cypress. Just moved here about a year ago. But my temp housing was in Katy. Not too far away. Anyways, the weizenbock is fermenting like crazy. Woke up this morning with probably a cup more fluid in my blowoff jar than I had yesterday. That's fun to clean at 5:00 am. I'm going to...

    Just pitched on the weizenbock. Too much fun Saturday night prevented a Sunday brewday. Missed a little in the og. 1.067 to a predicted 1.075. Wonder if the LHBS really double milled for me or not. I'm in Houston, tx myself. Whereabouts Dan?

    12 Beers of Christmas 2013 Edition! (Need Brewers!)

    No kegs for me... Yet. So I will be bottle conditioning. I figure I will have about 15-17 bottles left over after shipping anyways so it will be good to let a couple of them age until next Christmas to see the changes a year makes. Is everybody or anybody planning on fancy Christmas labels...

    Put me down for the spiced dunkel weizenbock. I've been wanting to participate for two years now and I'm always late to the party.

    Bottling day mis-hap

    I started bottling day last night. Added priming sugar to cold crashed beer in bottling bucket. Some how I had dropped my bottling wand on the concrete and managed to step on it and break it in half. It made the crunch that your heard in every movie where a kid steps on his glasses. Lhbs is...

    Flavor of soap

    Don't dump it. I just made a centennial blonde that after two weeks in bottles had a soap taste to it. I waited another week and chilled for 3-4 days and that taste completely went away.

    Johnson Temp Controller for Idiots (me)

    You don't need to modify the fridge to put the probe in (although I'm sure if you did it right it would look prettier than mine). But I run the probe right in through the top of the refrigerator door with good results.

    Mashing twice biab?

    I searched this and found only one thread with no results. I have a friend/ brewing partner who wants to make a 1.100-1.200 barleywine but we are currently limited to a 40 qt pot and biab method. I can only fit about 12 lbs of grain with my current setup and without looking up exact recipes I...

    Why does my beer taste like wine?

    My first batch was a mr. Beer blonde ale. I had a sweet white wine taste in my first couple bottles even though fermentation had completed. Give it a full three weeks before chilling and give a bottle a week or two in the fridge. That taste will be long gone. If its anything like my "blonde" the...
