That is some serious dedication right there.......

I'm too broke to buy beer from the store after buying all the fancy crap to brew, store, and pour it:D. Actually, I renovated our basement myself and decided it would be fun to build a bar with four wall-mounted taps.... Needless to say, I needed a few kegs just to get through the project and...

"hey.......you got any more of them bottles?

You will see "issues" amplified with small-batch brews. If you have the money, I recommend getting a refractometer (see link below) instead of a hydrometer to measure gravity during your brew session. This handy device will help you make adjustments during the boil and get you dialed into...

I am jealous of you Android guys. The app seems like a nice way to design recipies and tweak stuff without standing at your Brewie hitting buttons. How often are you monitoring your brews outside the house? Just curious....I don't know if I trust my Brewie yet to play unsupervised.

Quick update from Brewie in case anyone else is running into water problems like me. (I thought I was going crazy after calibrating the machine six times and still having issues). The legs aren't calculating the water correctly, so I was ending up with around 5.5 gallons of mash water when the...

After I posted this, I ran a 15lb grain bill that caused some overflow. I don't know if Brewie can reasonably support that volume for a 5-gallon high gravity beer. I've heard some people do two grain bags back to back, but I don't know how realistic that is. I'm interested to hear if anyone else...

Are you doing a full drain, or standard (leaving the 3L of trub in the bottom)? I am playing around with leaving my lid open during boil in case I have too much liquid because of my beersmith calculations. I've only done a few brews in Brewie, so this is still a learning curve. Also, if you...

Redneck Hopster in the Brewie while I work on a dogfish 90 minute in the grainfather.

I took the backward approach to get into brewing beer...... Renovated my downstairs basement with a custom bar (wine fridges, beverage fridges, 4 beer taps through the wall to my utility room) and realized that buying kegged craft beer was just freaking expensive to keep 2-3 on rotation all the...
