Totally late to the party here but homebrewing in Korea is changing very rapidly. We now have access to 2-row, munich, vienna etc at bulk prices. Check out homebrewkorea.com for more information or any of the local facebook groups; "Busan Union of Brewers", "Daejeon Brewers Guild", and "Seoul...

Has anyone else seen this style machine stateside? I see plenty of soda dispensers made into beer dispensers but nothing like this. I feel like the only time I see them they are in a restaurant dispensing Asahi. This unit in particular has Korean made circuitry some I'm guessing it's Korean...

I haven't seen any other of these so I thought I'd post. I picked this up from a fellow home brewer getting out of the game. It was given to him / or he found it. When plugged in, it ran constantly and turned the water bath into a slushy so I wired in an adjustable thermostat. I cleaned...

Exactly. That's what I'm hoping to do. I have to figure with the thin second runnings and the LME, I should have a really hardy second beer too. I was hoping someone could offer some empirical help but I may just have to shoot from the hip on this one. Like you mentioned, it isn't a...

Howdy, This is what I'm planning on doing and here is my situation/justification. 1) I want to get 10 gallons of beer split between two batches. I'm wanting to do a parti-gyle beer because I don't want 10 gallons of DIPA or 10 gallons of Barley Wine. 2) I've inherited 8 pounds of Amber...

8 weeks? Wow. I have read all the horror stories about slow 3724 but my old experience with the yeast has been awesome. Brewed up a 90% pilsner /10 % munich with a 150f mash. 1.5 liter starter into a 1.052 wort. The yeast brought it down to 1.002 in 5 days @ 77f ramped up to 86f. Delish!

I've got a friend that has done what you are proposing but with Korean peppers. I can get more info for you and post.

Sounds good. I really don't have a lot to lose.

Halifax, I could do that. I mean, I could have my parents harvest them for me at the appropriate time and save them for me when I come back in June. Brooksy, We used to live in NW MT too (Eureka area to be more specific - which I've heard is getting a brewery soon!). For my money, it...

I've got some second year hops plants that have exploded in my garden. They have a bunch of cones on them. My question is this; I leave for overseas 8/28. Is 8/27 insanely early to harvest for a wet hop beer and brew on 8/29 when I arrive in my home away from home? For the record, my...

Don't let the warm temperature scare you. I set my kegerator at 12c (56f), serve through a 7 ft line with a cobra tap and my regulator is set at 12 - 14 psi. According to the chart, that puts me at about 2.0 volumes. Beautiful pours each and everytime. Someday when I move home, I hope to...

If you have the drill already and some hole cutters, you won't need much more to make something classy like this. The first picture is of a base when I was using it in the US. The second one is a base I made in Korea out of scrap wood and a water jug I found. This is atop a Monster Mill 3...

I also live in Daejeon. We have a homebrewing community on Facebook called "Daejeon Brewers Guild". Also, if you're not a member already, join homebrewkorea.com . There is a ton of brewing info pertinent to brewing in Korea on that website. If you need any help, shoot me a PM. Welcome back...

Judging by the title, I was totally hoping this thread was going to go in a different direction.

Gonna jump on the 'holy s*!% this is a great beer' bandwagon. I did a split batch fermenting one with 05 and the other with 04. I had the hops on the hand but had to sub Munich for Vienna and Pilsner for two-row (we can't get 2-row in Korea) With the 04, I fermented for 5 days and cold...

It's not an issue of user error. The input shaft is slightly bent. It wobbles and creates unnecessary vibration.

Service through the purchase experience may be outstanding but I'm having a hell of a time getting an answer to my question about my BC via 3 emails sent over the last month. I've read that I'm not the only one either.

That's right. I have seen this video. I'd like to build this but invariably I run into the problem of sourcing parts without be fluent in Korean (though the irony is that that motor you have there probably comes from Korea). Up to this point, I've just been putting the malt in a large...

I was super stringent about the soak times but found a bucket with a few small holes really does the trick. I've got it in my bathroom so when ever I'm in there, ahem, about twice a day, I fill the bucket with tap water. It takes about 30-60 minutes to slow drain out. The grains are quite...
