So it's likely a carbonation issue you think? I would prefer to set and forget for 2 weeks but my roommate and brew partner can be impatient, and we also wanted to get this done in time for super bowl so it was a bit rushed.

Nothing that drastically different in recipes that I can recall. All were force carbed at 20-30 for a couple days and dropped down from there to be carbed within a week. I can't really think of anything that changed between them that would cause an issue

Can't figure out why my most recent beer is pouring too much foam. The last couple have been fine but this one pours terrible. Tried different pressures, have 10 foot lines and I'm out of ideas

I assume it was sediment that also got racked from the carboy, it was clogged pretty bad and would barely pour. I bottled some and the rest went into the keg, so if those turn out okay it could be something contaminating the keg.

Well this turned into a huge disappointment. Got the dip tube cleared if debris and it started pouring fine, got the carbonation to be where I wanted, and a few taste testers were good on Friday. But when I got it to my family event Saturday night it was a totally different beer. Tasted...

Working on getting the carbonation right, but it's close. Tastes pretty good so should be ready to go by the weekend. Only problem is it doesn't pour well from the picnic tap. Had regulator at 17psi and even that was a slow pour. Tried through my kegerator faucets with better results but still...

Just ordered the Brickwarmer to brew for a family function coming up soon. Should have thought about this sooner but here I am scrambling to get it done in time. The recipe kit should arrive 12/9 and I need it ready by 1/3. I've read if people fermenting this for 2-3 weeks and being fine. I plan...

Tried using a blow off tube for the first time with it going into a bucket filled with water and sanitizer but noticed after a few days there are black marks on the bucket above the water line. It hasn't cleaned off very well and I can't seem to figure out what would cause that. We used an extra...

A friend of mine and myself just got into homebrewing. After talking about doing it for a while we finally did. Brewed our first batch, a Hefeweizen, July 1st and within 11 days we now have 3 batches going. After I found out my dad used to brew years ago I took his old bucket and using that and...
