Happy brew beer & a HAPPY NEW BEER!

WOW! WHAT BEAUTY !!!!!!! :drunk:

Thanks! I'll get with it tonight! :ban:

Hi! I brewed a 3.25 gal. batch of Xmas Ale. My O.G. was 1.089 & after 3 weeks my F.G. was stuck @ 1.049. I tried stirring things up & had no change in a week so I made up another starter & pitched. My gravity went down to 1.039 & stayed once again for the past week & a half. Do you think this...

I've harvested from Southern Tier's LIVE & have a clone fermenting now!:ban:

My Brew day is Fridays (when I'm off of work). My wife loves it 'cause I'll do laundry at the same time! Everything times out perfectly!

I made a small mash tun from an old 2 1/2 gallon water cooler & it works great!

I spoke to the LHBS & they said they'll replace it! Thanks aiptasia!!!! :mug:

Well... My my local brew shop made up a grain bill for me & accidentally mistaken 1.2 ounces of Belgian Aromatic for 1.6 pounds! I'm brewing a small batch (1 gallon) & this is what I'm using: 1 LB Belgian Pilsner Malt 8 ounces Belgian Wheat 6.5 ounces Flaked Wheat 1.5 LB Belgian Aromatic...

Well, I feel a whole lot better. What I'm doing is a small batch (1 gallon) as if it were a larger one. I made a small 21/2 gallon mash tun & I did a fly sparge with it. I don't know if with such a small amount makes it more difficult, but it's a lot of fun trying to go by the book! :mug:

I just got done brewing a wheat beer & I missed the original gravity target by 7 points! The target OG is 1.045 & my result was 1.038. I still don't seem to understand how this will effect the final product. I know it means I didn't extract enough sugar from the grains, but what is gonna be...

Southern Tier Brewery in Lakewood, New York! :ban:

Thanks! Northern Brewer has one on their website. I'll have to give it a try, although I think I'll pick up a hydrometer anyway. Somehow, engineering calculations don't always work in the real world.

Well, That's a relief. I went ahead & racked into bottles. Because I'm only brewing small batches, is there any conversion software to allow me to test with a refractometer? Using a hydrometer would be wasting a lot of the small amount I have.

Hi, I'm new at the all grain brewing & have a question. I have a 2-hearted clone small batch (one gallon) that's been in the fermenter for 3 weeks @ 68ºF & I took a refractometer reading that shows the gravity at 1.030. I don't know what the OG was because at the time, I had no way to read it...
