Went out to snow blow at half time so needed another beer.

How’s everyone doing? Hoping to become more active in this thread again. Wife and I are in the process of building a new house so all my brewing equipment has been packed/sold. New house will have a Clawhammer! So until I can brew again, commercial beer it is

My wife, who works at NASA, played a role in this launch. She got us these shirts to celebrate. Yet also celebrating with a boot of my Christmas ale. Lol. Figured this thread would be semi appropriate for this.

Thanks all! The overnight soak in strong star san did the trick!

thank you. I’ll do an overnight soak with a strong batch of star san and see what happens.

I’ve been using my stainless anvil brew bucket for a while now. After every fermentation, I’ll fill it up with a warm oxyclean solution and let it sit for a bit and then scrub it. It’s to the point now where there is some brown residue from fermentation that I just can’t scrub off. Last time I...

Hey guys, I used this yeast for the first time on Friday. I brewed an IPA and cooled my wort down to 114ish , pitched and then let ride and cool down naturally and it's sitting at about 80 F right now with a heating belt to maintain it there. What should I expect from this yeast pitching that hot?

Has anyone made this with the Giant Eagle Granny Smith apple juice? I pitched yeast yesterday. Got 5 gallons of it for like $12 so what could go wrong?

Can you tell I smoked this 4# brisket hot and fast in under 5 hours? My first one and it’s so tender and juicy and so much flavor. Not as tender as it would be if I did low and slow, but so far that trade off for saving time is great!

yep they were crystal clear in the keg, then I bottled and kept in the fridge (no warmth at all) and then tried it a few days later and it was so hazy you couldn’t really see through it anymore. But it still tasted the same. I know oxidation can take a while so I wasn’t sure what I was...

Does anyone else experience crystal clear beers turning hazy after a few days of using this filler? They don’t taste oxidized or look brown or anything, they just get hazy. Is that normal? Maybe it is oxidized and I’m just not purging the bottle enough? No idea.

This is all so interesting to me. If you were to write a book about your lifestyle, I'd be the first to buy it!

I've been eyeing this post over the past few days and can't get it out of my head so I'm going to brew this tomorrow night. haha. I'll post back the outcome! Absolutely love the color.

Homebrew shandy and just threw some burgers on the smoker.

My English mild that I didn’t care for at the time ending up advancing but no medal, which I didn’t expect anyways although the comments didn’t really contain bad feedback. Oh well. Next year lol.

So good! I don't care for the way it smells so I didn't think I'd like it, but when it's cooked I love it. I got mine at Costco as well.

Reverse searing seasoned with kinders buttery steakhouse.

Homebrew tangerine pale ale and enjoying the weather before it rains again.

I just have a generic polar wave 5 gallon SS kettle that I’ve used for years. That should be fine right?

I finally bought my 1800w induction burner for my 1 gallon batches. It’ll be here Saturday. I’ll keep this thread updated with how it works!
