yeah im not worried about it to much really, from the rave reviews its getting i dont think it can turn out bad. Austin

Well i got all the stuff to make my apfelwein today. 5 gallons of white house 100% apple juice, 2 lbs of brown sugar ( wanted it maybe a little bit sweeter but will experiment more later), Red Star champaigne (? spelling) yeast. Should have a nice stiff drink in about 4 weeks or so. Austin

ok, thanks for the info. Im gonna go to liqour barn tommarow they are the only place around here with any kind of yeast on hand.

Im thinking about making some today, or tommarow since its relitivly easy. My question is can i use any kind of concerntrated apple juice, such as Motts, or somthing of that nature. Also some had mentioned making aplewien with an ale yeat to make it a little sweeter. Is this ok or should i...

Im really not that worried about it to be honest, it just made me real mad the guy got smart with me. It didnt even hit me until he walked away from the table what he had done and then i just didnt care enough to take it any further. I dont care to spend 4 bucks on a beer just dont bring...

So my buddy just got back from overseas (millitary) and we decide to head over to hooters since he hasnt had any decent greasy american food in the past year. I ordered a Sam Adams, it tasted fine. After that was finished off i decided to order up a Guinness, hadnt had one in a while. The...

It was at the Liqour World about 1 min from my apartment in Richmond KY. They had several meads (4 or 5) on the shelf. This was the cheapest so i started there to see if i was interested. I will be back very soon to try some more.

Got my first ever bottle of mead today. Oliver Camelot Mead, cheap like 7 bucks a bottle, but i must say this is an interesting drink. I cant imagine what really good mead would taste like. Im gonna have to brew some up real soon. Austin

Looks good i hope to join the ranks of all grain brewers soon. Austin

Stone 10th IPA is probably my 1 2 and 3 favorite beers. Sierra nevada Pale Ale Sam Adams Boston Lager Arogant bastard Ale newcastle brown ale

Every time i come here i get a new idea on what could make my homebrew better. ( keep in mind batch # 3 is conditioning at the moment) Anyway im already sold on going all grain. and putting my beer in kegs is looking more and more appealing. Keep up the good work guys with all the...

What is the difference between batch and fly sparging exactly. Im still learning.

Im curious about this as well. Austin

I have done 3 extract brews to date, and have done alot of review on the PM process as well as AG brewing. I thought at first i wanted to do PM. Yet the more i think about it the more i want to just go ahead and do all grain. A friend of mine is wanting to get into brewing so i told him...

Thanks for the input looks like a great burner especially for the money.

What kind of propane burner do you all grain brewers recomend for a first timmer. I want somthing thats effective enough that when ready i can eventually move on from 5 gallon batches and it will still handle the job. Austin

Thanks everyone

I bought a cooler today to make my mash/Lauter tun. Its a five gallon and said on it that it will keep ice for 5 days in 90 degree weather, got it at wal-mart for $25. Figure if it will keep ice near that long it will keep the strike water hot for at least one hour. Now could someone give...

also sounds like a good idea, im gonna go pick one up later. Need to test my IPA 9 days in the fermenter today. Austin
