    American Lager 2013 NHC Bronze Medal Winner: Classic American Pilsner

    Just kegged this after about 2 months of lagering, and WOW! Delicious beer with great body and head retention. In fact I'd say it's the best head I've ever had......in a beer. My efficiency snafu put it around 7% ABV, but you'd never know it from tasting it, until the second or third one...

    Help with Group Brewday / demonstration

    I suppose I should have posted this in the fermentation & yeast forum rather than general techniques.

    Help with Group Brewday / demonstration

    Hey there brewmasters, got a scenario I want to run by y'all. Was talking to SWMBO the other day and it turns out several people in her parenting group are either brewers or interesting in brewing. So I thought I'd do a brewday / demonstration, try to get more people hooked on the hobby. I...

    American Lager 2013 NHC Bronze Medal Winner: Classic American Pilsner

    Good tips, thanks. Seems like everyone warns against using a p-rest on fully modified malts, I take it that's less of an issue with the pilsner malt?

    American Lager 2013 NHC Bronze Medal Winner: Classic American Pilsner

    Brewed this a few weeks ago as my first pilsner, have it lagering now. This is the first time I've done something other than a single infusion mash, and have to say I really enjoyed the process. I ended up using my boil kettle to do the steps, with touches of flame and lots of stirring...

    Why boil the wort chiller?

    I've found that putting the chiller in at the same time as the later hop addition works great. The chiller kills the boil long enough for the pellets to dissolve so I don't end up with a boil over and hops all up the side of my kettle. I just throw it in at 10 or 15 minute or whatever the...

    Far from irritating IMO.

    How many kegs should I aim to tap at once?

    Definitely interested in the answers to this one, as I'm in a similar boat. Working to squeeze a 6 tap kegerator into my kitchen, and trying to decide what to do with the lines. My initial thinking is to get 3 secondary regulators with a 2-way splitter on each. That gives me 3 different...

    Question for any saison vets

    Last summer I did a couple of saisons, pitched in the mid 60's then stuck it out in the garage. Summer in Texas meaning 90 in the shade. Had it wrapped in a towel to try to smooth out the temp swings a bit. Not sure what it got up to since my stick on thermometer doesn't go high enough, but...

    Mosaic Wit

    How did this turn out? I've got a couple ounces of mosaic and was thinking it might be great in a wit.

    What's with all the random German vocab in the homebrewing world?

    I like how "English" is of german origin but "German" is not.
