    5 days to have two 5 gal kegs carbed

    Hello all, I need help carving 2 kegs fast. I have until Saturday, and the 2 kegs are currently at room temp~70°F and I have 30 lbs of gas on them. My kegerator is, well, kaput. I'm buying one in the next couple of days to chill the kegs. My garage is about 38°F, so I could put them out...

    American Porter Bee Cave Brewery Robust Porter

    Brewed a kit from HB supply about two weeks ago and got it as close as I could to this recipe by adding g some additional grains I already had on hand. Used Nottingham. Is fermented furiously for 3 days, then slowed. Just transferred to a keg and grabbed a sample. It is bitter and smokey...

    So who's brewing this weekend?

    Brewed up a Pre-Prohibition Lager and a Robust Porter on Sunday. First and last double brew day until I'm able to invest in an electric setup with pumps. My back is getting too old for all that lifting and moving of kettles, also propane is a PITA.

    Help with hops

    So, this recipe was amazing. I had a lot of trouble with the popits getting clogged with hop material initially, so I need a solution for that, however, this was one of the better IPA's I've had. I would maybe do a whole ounce at 60 mins, since there was very little bitterness. But wow...

    Help with hops

    I haven't had time to keg this until yesterday, due to life, so it sat for a few days in the fermenter. I soaked a hop bag in starsan for a couple of hours, loaded up with hops, then placed that in the keg and purged with co2. I have a stainless mesh doohickey on the end of my dip tube to...

    Help with hops

    I'm fermenting in a 6.5 gallon glass carboy. I do have a cap and a racking cane to flush CO2 with, so I'm going to try to transfer under pressure to the keg. It's still bubbling away at day 5, every few seconds.

    Help with hops

    I may have over purchased hops for this brew. I ended up with the following schedule for hops, but I may back off on the dry hops. I'm on day 5 from brew day. I hit my PH and temps on the nose, but unfortunately I over sparge, and then overcompensated on my boil. So I have only 5 gallons in...

    Help with hops

    My brother's 50th birthday is just over a month away. I'm making per his request, an IPA around 7.5% and he wants a tropical fruit bomb. I need help with the hop selection and schedule though as I'm sure how to get the most aroma with just enough bitterness. I want to make sure our wifes will...
