My wife has developed a minor allergic reaction to some beers. First off, this is not gluten related. Fortunately, one of those beers was by a local brewery and I was able to get a recipe of the beer in question. There's no unusual ingredients, just hops and grains. I've used all the hops...

I started brewing a couple weeks ago after a 3 year hiatus. I like to harvest my yeast, but can you still do this if you skip the secondary? Sorry if this was answered already, but I could only see it asked a couple places with no answers. I'm guessing if not, the alternative would be to...

Something came up and I won't be able to make the draft so I dropped out so someone else can join if they want.

What I screwed up about my first bottle priming is that I had the cases sitting on the floor in the basement. The basement itself was in the correct temperature range, but the floor kept the bottles just a little too cool to carb correctly.

I racked a brew to secondary last night and saved the yeast/trub to harvest the yeast. I read that you should put it in the fridge for a little bit to separate and you should get two layers and save the top, but I don't seem to be getting that. Not much happened after about an hour in the...

I'm flexible in terms of when it is.

I'm in.

We had a 20Mbs internet connection and never had skipping or lag. Wii is wifi and the Roku is wire.

We have streaming Netflix on the Wii in the basement and the Roku box upstairs. We use it so much I suspended our DirecTV account to try going without it.

Great read. I would love to go pro at some point but wouldn't want the hassle of a full brewpub. A nanobrewery sounds cool.

I'm going to try to make root beer. What suggestions do you guys have for yeast-less carbonation? I'm going to be using Zatarains but I'm assuming that following the recipe will make it too sweet since there will be no yeast to use up some of the sugar.

I'm working on my first mead and it's been sitting in a bucket for a couple months now. I can't remember for the life of me why I used the bucket instead of a carboy, but that's moot now. Should I keep it in the bucket for it to continue aging or should I transfer it to a carboy? Thanks

Good for me, bad for the SWMBO. They're only a few minutes away from my new place.

It's been quite some time since I've been on here so I thought I'd re-introduce myself. I just relocated from Pennsyltucky to Colorado Springs, CO. Can any locals recommend good home brewing stores? Also, is there anything I have to worry about due to the increased altitude, 6600 ft...

There's also a great podcast from Basic Brewing on Aug 25, 2005 about this.

I'm a complete beer snob, but it's not because of the home brew. The first case I bought on my 21st birthday many moons ago was a Neuweiler's stout/porter/black & tan (I forget what exact kind, but you couldn't see through it). I was ok with Yuengling until a couple years ago when I went...

Work? Damn it, I knew I was supposed to be doing something.

Mmm, beer jacuzzi.

Great writeup! I didn't know refractometers were only good if there's no alcohol.
