Okay then, maybe not at $25 a piece.

I got the recipes for a couple of my favorite beers from a small brewery in a town I went to college in. The problem is that I'm still pretty new to brewing and am still brewing extract kits. I know what the ingredients are that are in the recipe, but I have no idea how to figure out how much I...

That thing is amazing! I may end up getting one of those.

I decided to order a 6.5gal Carboy from MoreBeer (first time buying with them; surprised by their prices and cheap/fast shipping). I'm also using WLP001 and decided I'd rather be on the safe side and have some actual head space. And who doesn't like an excuse to buy more brewing equipment? Oh...

I've never seen a 6gal extract kit either, which is why I was surprised when I read the kit instructions and saw step "9. Add more cold water as needed to bring the volume to 6 gallons." And that, of course, is after transferring from kettle to carboy. I just filled my carboy with 6gal of water...

I've spent about an hour searching for my answers in the other Plinan Legacy threads but haven't found what I'm looking for, so here goes. Just got my Plinian Legacy (extract) kit from NB and realized it's a 6gal recipe. I have a 7.5gal kettle and a 6gal glass carboy for primary (and a 5gal...

Found out it's PVC. That's about all I could find.

Anyone ever use suction tubing that's used in hospitals in brewing? The times it comes to mind would be for racking and bottling mainly. Can't seem to figure out what this stuff is made of, though I know for sure it's not silicone. Thinking about using it because it's much more flexible than the...

I figured as much and continued walking to the bomber section of the beer aisle.

Yes.

I've always enjoyed Guinness, but just saw they now have something called Guinness Blonde American Lager. Does this seem strange to anyone else? Also, I'm drunk.

UPDATE: I think I've gotten my stir plate set up just how I want it. I have no way to measure the RPMs or anything, so I'm really just eyeballing the speed. The problem I was having earlier with not being able to lower the speed anymore using just the pot were solved by adding in a resistor to...

I'm having the same problem with my build (6v power source, 25ohm POT, and 12v fan). Went back to RadioShack and got a 5K ohm (had read multiple places that it would allow for more adjustment of the speed) and that did basically the opposite of what I wanted and I ended up having basically an...
