Go for it! Be bold. You might as well try something new. But do the beer service and let it sit. Patience is one of the important part of homebrewing. But regardless of if you choose to brew a Belgian or not, get that secondary out of the closet and put it to use! If not as a secondary as a...

Thanks Revy. I appreciate the reply. I figured as much for the carbonation, but I wasn't sure really what was happening during the bottle conditioning that was different than what happened in the fermenter and it tasted pretty good.

Ok Cool Thanks for the quick response.

I recently made a Hex Nut Brown Ale clone using a partial recipe from North American Clone Brews (with recipe found here). I left it in primary for about 10 weeks and bottled it. I got a little impatient (I know I know. Time makes better beer), and tried it after 14 days of carbonation...

Thanks for the quick responses. I appreciate it. Regarding the pils malt, I don't know if they do or not. I don't remember seeing it at my LHBS, so I figured I'd ask.

I recently found this Uerige Altbeir clone recipe on Zymurgy. http://daveybrewing.blogspot.com/2009/04/uerige-alt-homebrew-recipe.html I have 2 questions regarding the conversion of hte 6.72kg of Weyermann Bohemian Pils malt: 1) What do you recommend that I use as an extract? Amber...

whats the dilution of oxyclean that people use?

awesome. Thanks for all the replies. How much priming honey would you recommend using next time? I think I used a cup for a 5 gal batch. Hopefully it won't develop an off taste. Right now its going pretty well amongst the friends...they say it tastes good and laugh about it when it slowly...

haha. thanks. Is there a calculator or a rule of thumb out there for how long to let things ferment? I'm just wondering because the airlock was done bubbling and the gravity seemed to have leveled out.

It tastes as it should, its just hard to drink with all the head. I think I used 1 cup of honey as a primer for a 5 gal batch. It is possible I bottled a little too early and over did the beer. I think I bottled after 14 days, without a secondary because it was a wheat beer. Sorry I can't...

I have a honey wheat that has been in bottles for about a month now. When I open some of the bottles, the head flows out at a stead pace, not rushing, but forcing a drink of foam quite often. The pour itself produces much head. Is this an infection or is something else at work here? Reason...

about how long do you bottle condition before you are able to drink it? I know patience is my friend, so I'm willing to wait, but I'm just looking for round numbers. This will be my 3rd homebrew. Its been in the primary for about 1.5 months at 64 degrees. Any input?

If you're going to be out near International Tap House (ITAP), you should also probably check out Sky Zone and Adrenaline Zone, especially if you have a decent size group of people. Sky Zone is the only place outside of Los Vegas to have essentially bowl shaped arenas made from trampolines...

I have an Ale Pale that my mom stored kinda roughly. The inside looks fine. No mold growing. I'm going to bleach it overnight and brew an extract tomorrow. My concern comes from the lid. Its all scratched up. Everything else is fine. Should I be concerned about this? Should I buck up and...

Anyone have any problem with mold or something similar growing?

Any feedback on how it turned out yet?

how do you tell when the alcohol is ready to drink? Just taste or is there some visible sign?

StumbleUpon...great time-waster and directs you to general info about a topic.

Ah gotcha. I was just following the kit's directions...I knew something looked funny, but I didn't know where I messed up. I'll definitely take your advice. Thanks a lot. Though continuing on this train of though, a family friend recommended that since I want to be brew in a craft style...
