    Shelf life / Aging time

    I read posts that urge patience when it comes to allowing time for beer to condition, and other posts that testify to a beer tasting great on its one year anniversary. I know some Belgian style beers can "mellow" or "ripen" (Whatever the correct terminology is!?) for even longer. Is this...

Looking for lots of ideas that will keep the fermenter full, allow me to use the new MLT, and inspire the next step toward AG! (also graduating in May, and want a great...

Does anyone remember this thread, and can you re-direct me! Also, check...

    ever had an allergic reaction.

    Yes! And I had a similar reaction once. Felt like there was a knot in my gut, and I had the same "bloating" reaction. Once and a blue moon have a reaction to beer with to much hops, something my grandfather had an alergy with. Every so often I have a beer (generally when in Europe) that gives me...

    Is beer making dangerous?

    Wow! that cop needs a promotion eh! Cleaning up the "streets" I think he has seen reefer madness one too many times! Blinding, from what I understand was caused by distilling liquor that was derived from wood. Although there are sugars that can be derived from wood (and was probably used by...

    Experimenting with priming

    Interesting, and thanks for the input. When adding anything to the secondary, I presume that it should be treated similar to the initial wert, i.e. boil it up for sanitation, then cool it quickly and pour it in? :mug:

    Experimenting with priming

    Anyone ever use jelly/preserves for priming? Nothing with chunks of fruit, but peach, cherry, jalepeno, apple, etc, etc? boil it up instead of sugar, or corn syrup? Might be cool, anyone try it before? good or bad idea? Same ratio?

    How much air space in secondary?

    Are there ways to eliminate the airspace without diluting or otherwise spoiling the efforts?

    How much air space in secondary?

    Just moved first beer (Nut Brown) to secondary but I have about 5 inches from the bottleneck, and wonder if this is a problem? :confused:

    Has anybody ever used corn or corn cobs during brewing?

    Sounds pretty darn good. Do you have the recipe for the cream ale handy? might like to try it one day. I am assuming that it is an all grain, and I am not quite there yet, but one day . . .! :rockin:

    Beginners blunder

    Wife bought me a 2 stage kit and all of the perrifs, but there were no instructions so I began reading and consulting with another brew friend out of state. I have a brown ale cooking for 3 days primary,:drunk: and realized that I did not fill the air lock with fluid. I put some in today, but...
