    The Most Terrible Beer Ever orrr The Worst Beer Of All Time?

    http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_e-YxtJRmw3s/STfuR9d8EUI/AAAAAAAABgU/xaQWMN1YOzI/s200/lh-smokejumper.gif (smoked imperial porter) Seriously, this is the ONLY kind of beer I have found to dislike. Charcoal Beer? I think not. lol. Figured I'd share. :drunk:

    Aging and Bitter Aftertaste

    I have actually been having this same problem. Perhaps I should let them age longer as well. However, It only occured to me once I sat down at my computer to search the issue that my late extract technique may be the problem in itself. When you late extract you overutilize your bittering hops...

    Want to start kegging but...

    Thank you everyone for the replies. I foresee me purchasing this in a day or so. One last question: When beer in the keg is fully carbed is there a way you can disconnect it from the co2 and take it to a party per sey without needing a pump? I only ask because if i can't simply put extra psi...

    NEW - Starting out equipment

    I'm pro better bottles instead of glass. Glass is heavy, hard to handle and breaks easily. Just my 2 cent.

    First All grain this weekend

    You may want to drop your efficiency down a bit--say 65% or so? It is your first AG after all. That is what people have suggested to me and I haven't done my first AG yet.

    Scaling Ingredients: Effects?

    I am planning to brew https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f68/none-more-black-vanilla-stout-96969/ in a week. It is extract based and I am still in the process of trying to convert it to AG (any help would be appreciated, I can't seem to get it just right). I am using 2-row Pale UK for base malt...

    My beer has no carbonation, can someone help?

    Keeping it at 70 degrees? Did you forget to add priming sugar? lol. It happens more than you'd think. Possibly just a bad seal while capping?

    It is time!...To AG that is!

    Thanks for the advice, I'll do that. I guess what I'm trying to say is if I up the grains for higher OG while keeping the IBU's scaled the same will I end up with just a higher ABV brew? What will the effects of scaling everything up have on the beer?

    Another dry hopping question

    Well, I believe you would want to siphon all of the wort off and leave the trub layer and as much sediment behind as possible. Secondary is no more than a clearing vessel, or in your case, a clearing vessel and where you dry hop. Siphon the wort from primary on top of the hops. Just as a side...

    It is time!...To AG that is!

    Edit: to specify, it's not so much adding the base malts to the recipe (if i knew what they were) but i'm not sure what to do about the steeping grains and making the numbers match up with everything else (color, IBUs, etc)
