Goses... Guezes...whatever they are called... I think they hit the homebrewing community for a few weeks last summer in terms of hot ness....

Looks like you did an update, eh? Good on you!:mug:

I predict the next little brewing "fad" bubble will be everything "NE" style... Just like how everything became "Imperial" for a bit. Brewers will be applying the same techniques they do to get NE IPAS to other styles... Like NE Irish Reds, NE Stouts.... We'll see.

Just popped up on my FACEBOOK memories... 2013 was the season for homebrewing/craft brewing of the Table Beers...

Uh.. I just cut them with whatever I have lying around and toss them in whatever I'm doing. They're a sanitizer, as soon as they dilute I figure they're going to burn the holy beejesus out of anything on their surface. I would think even if you keisterd them they'd still do what they need to do...

Sounds tasty actually.

There's a thread on the beersmith forum where a guy says how he does it.. he promised to do a step by step tutorial, but never does... Glad someone posted this, I was considering a chromebook just last week. Would have been pissed off to find out I could run BS on it.

Looks like it should... Different yeasts, fermenting different grains producing different looking krausens, some of them scary. And different yeasts flocculate differently, some leave a lot of Krausen Kurdels on the surface.

So the question is... what do they taste like?

I still can't get my head around the fact that I've worked damn hard over the last 10+ years of brewing to make CLEAR beer. :) Granted I have had M-25 and found it an amazing beer... and at some point I will jump into brewing one of these things after doing some research... probably this...

I see what you did there :mug:... but you did remind me, Imperializing everything was a fad for a hot minute.. Still trying to figure out what an Imperial Red Ale was supposed to be. LOL India Pale Lagers was a "thing" a couple years ago. But I think other bigger "things" took their thunder away.

I think your kegging idea is a sound one. Put a nipple on your starsan growler of some sort to hoseclamp the blowoff tube to so it's a closed system and the blowoff hose won't come loose, maybe since you are going to be kicking fermentation up between the sloshing and the heat- go with something...

I think, wasn't that not to long ago? Wasn't that what was bumped off the hiplist by NEIPAs?

I know I'm way late on this, but when I'm doing an initial experiment with most fruits (or other ingredients) I usually opt for the lightest grainbill/beer possible to let that ingredient shine through... Same with a new hop often... something to test the flavor without over-riding it. In my...

I think you realize by reading the other answers, that a pre-chiller is more important than a larger surface area chiller... if your ground water doesn't get colder than for example 80, then no matter how much copper you have, it won't go lower than that. One of the cheapest ways to do this is...

I don't know if I agree with this... I get the sentiment, that continuous learning, experimentation, etc. is important, (That I do agree with) but in terms of beginner/not beginner, I think it's the opposite... You're no longer a beginner when you realize that to continue to advance in this...

I personally love pumpkin beers... but I do wonder if, now that it seems like between late September til Christmas every brewery whether it's BMC or Craft has 2-3 different Pumpkin offerings on the selves. For example last year I noticed that O'Fallon, who IMHO makes one of the best Pumpkin...

I think this might be true for some... but I think there will always be beer geeks who find making it just as fun as drinking it, if not more so. THIS I think is a huge one.... it's the same thing that is affecting a lot of things... Think about Fraternal organizations like the Moose, or...

One thing that just came up in conversation a couple weeks ago with, I think Homercidal the mod when he came to visit me, was that Homebrewing peaked a few years back, and we're actually on the "downside" of that curve.... Don't know if it's true or not, but it does seem like even this place is...

Bull****... Sorry to burst your bubble but it's a big world out there, with lots of brewers doing whatever, however they want to... and for various reasons, so using words like "All" or "Only" and making statements like that just makes you sound like a jerk. I'm always trying new things, I'm...
