Anyone?

There's a recipe, that's brewing in my head and it's taking shape in really small steps. So to maybe hasten it a bit - I'd like to share it with you and maybe get some advice on it. A bit of backstory: There's a small piece of memory in my head from childhood about seeing a movie, where some...

some of the labels that I've made for my brews. I hope you'll like them :)

Stir-stir-stir - i will know better next time :) The taste seems fine and sweet - the yeast is now pitched and I'm waiting for happy bubbling :) Thanks for your help

Just tasted it - i don't notice any burned taste... going for mashout now...

Hello, fellow homebrewers I'm in a process of brewing right now so if any urgent answers will come - I will be grateful. I was doing a temperature mash, with 30min protein rest (50C) and after that I turned on the stove to raise temperature of mash for saccharification. Then suddenly I've...

As was recommended - I've chilled one bottle in the fridge for over two days. This second bottle was fully filled and with average amount of yeast in the bottom. I was almost praying while opening it - and it went very well. No gushing, the yeast stayed at the bottom and it poured into the...

Thanks for the tips, guys (or girls) - I've put the bottle into the fridge and will report back in a few days on how it was after cooling.

Dear collegues, I've recently brewed a batch of quadruple, ~10.5 abv strong, with honey. And as usual when bottling - I have a "test" bottle, where I pour the last drops from the carboy. Usually this bottle has ~1cm of yeast in it and is 3/5 full with beer. This bottle is opened the first...

Oh come on... It's a Belgian Quadruple... :( That will be a total waste if it'll go bad...

I hope it will be okay after just two days in the light. it still has ~3 weeks of time to ferment untill bottling

Hi there I've heard a couple of times that the sun is bad for the beer. But how much sun is bad, exactly? I have my beer fermenting in the kitchen in a glass carboy and naturally there's a window, where the sun shines at certain period of the day. Now there's no direct sunlight that hits...

Hello, I've browsed through all of google in search for one hops table that I've seen some time ago. And since I cannot find it - maybe someone who will read this will know what I am talking about from the description: There was a web page with hops listed with their respective bitterness...

No, I do not think so. But anyway - the beer is already pitched and bubbling. The OG is pretty low - only 1,036, but hopefully everything will be fine and I will have myself a 3,5 ABV summer refreshment beer.

Already heating up the stove, preparing for a reboil... Another good point about IBU. Anyone knows how the oils will react?

I'm brewing a hefeweizen. Raw water is from the tap. No, there is no chance of fermenting separately.

I'm in despair. It's my brewnight and I'm almost finished - done boiling the wort and left it in a bath tub to cill. and long story short, raw water got into the wort. and quite a bit - it was 11 litres of wort when I left it and now it's 14 l. Is the beer savable yet? I'm doing the...

thanks for your clarification :) Another quick question - should I stir the beer with a clean paddle (give additional O2, alevate yeast from the bottom), or should I just leave it be?

I think I will not start a new thread, since my question is very similar to the OP's. I've brewed my AG on Thursday night. Everything went superfine. Hit the target OG as a sniper with 1.060, as per recipe calculator. Friday morning I've found my fermenter's airlock bubbling like crazy - ~2-3...

Hello, fellow brewers. I'm just curious what do you do with your gravity check samples? Do you pour it back in the fermenter? Or drink it? or just dump it? Asking before doing the first check :D
