Sold.

Great lager and the labels pull off of the bottles easily and cleanly. Win, win.

Still active. My computer cropped out on me a few weeks ago. I haven't had computer access since then. Sorry for the confusion.

Yes it's active. My MacBook cropped out on me a few weeks ago and I haven't had easy access. I'll respond via PM. Sorry.

Stupid question, but did you remember to add your priming sugar? How long have they been carbing up and at what temperature? What kind of bottle caps did you use? If you bought them online, you want to make sure that they aren't decorative only bottle caps. I made that mistake, once. Primed...

Today, I transferred 4.75 gallons from my secondary to my keg along with 3.7 oz of priming sugar. It will be in a closet for the next 3 weeks while it carbs up. In the secondary, I had 8 oz of oak cubes (about 1" cubes) that I steamed in chardonnay for 15 minutes, then I soaked them in...

5 gallons of house saison. 2880+5= 2885.

Indeed, I do.

Update on the beer. I bottled the beer on August 14, 2015. I opened one recently and wow. This is the kind of beer that ages incredibly well. I have one bottle left. Don't know how long that is going to last but it's there. Brewing this again, tomorrow.

5 years ago, I found myself in the same situation. A good friend told me that proper fermentation is paramount. However, understanding your technique and equipment is just as valuable. All grain brewing is fantastic. All grain, via BIAB, is a perfect way to go. Efficiency goes up (for most...

Wow. This thread blew up kinda quick.

Welcome to the fund sucking hobby that is home brewing! And congratulations on your first home brew. Most people have many more questions for their first home brew, so I think you did a good job of reading up and being educated before starting. Let's go over a few things, though: 1. What is...

For sale is my keg fridge equipped with 2 ball lock kegs, plumbing, 5# co2 tank, standard taps, and a nice little baseplate (see photos). I have unfortunately hit a rough patch at work and selling is a must. Local pickup only. Full size fridge with freezer on top. Everything works as it...

Was there any DME or LME that you possibly forgot to add? My numbers are usually superb when BIAB...and I don't do anything special to make that happen. I'll hit 75-82% regularly. Too much mash water will certainly knock that number down. How much mash water did you use?

I have never trusted 2 days worth of gravity readings, unless they were several days apart. I had a saison "finish" at 1.014 (after starting at 1.062). I waited another 3 days before checking again, and I had more airlock activity. I popped the bucket open only to find that my yeast was...

5 gallons standard IPA 25,926 + 5 = 25,931 gallons

I love BIAB. Between the time savings, it reduces the amount of equipment I have to bring up from the basement. I always use a whirfloc tablet at the end of my boil. I've never had an issue with a particularly cloudy finished beer. I've used irish moss, to clear it too, and haven't had any...

I'm finally getting around to brewing after a lingering knee issue was finally surgically repaired 3 weeks ago. I decided to brew an IPA, bittering with Horizon FWH. I'm also throwing in 1 oz of centennial at 10 mins, .5 oz simcoe at 5 mins, .5 oz simcoe at flame out. I really like...

5 gallons of an IPA. 24,949 + 5 = 24,954 gallons.

Is it in the primary? Secondary?
