Never mind. Just found a link to another thread

So my dad recently gave a pretty nice 10 gallon stoke pot that he didn't need anymore. Wondering if there are any issue with brewing in an aluminum pot. Will it add off flavors?

Not sure if it makes a huge difference but I typed the recipe on here wrong. It was 6 lbs Golden Light and 1 lb Pilsen.

So my bro-in-law and I worked on a an ESB recipe. This was our first time playing around with a recipe. Just wanted to get a little feed back. FYI...I am going to post the original recipe. The guy the the LHBS convinced that we should LME sold us 6.6 lbs of LME which was not enough. Oh well...

We had the lid blow off of one our primaries about 4 months ago. Since then we always a blow off tube made out of a stopper and racking tubing. I would like larger tubing but haven't gotten around to it yet. If you are going to rack to a secondary don't get rid of your air locks. They work...

Thanks for all the info

Definitely a great early brew. Ours have been aging in the bottle for a month and it really is getting better with age.

I once tried a cider along time ago. It turned out terrible...but I was young, dumb, and hasn't really researched it much. This is my first attempt since then. It's been fermenting for about 4 days now. Still have some steady bubbling on top of the cider...I like carboys simply cause I can watch it.

Mostly that the gelatin would get caught up I the fruit and not spread through the beer well.

Hey everyone. Sorry if this answer is in another thread but haven't been able to find it. I brewed a raspberry ale (Requiem Raspberry recipe) and have it in the secondary with the raspberries right now. I have never used gelatin as a clearing agent before and was wondering if the berries would...

So I know this is an old thread but thought I would try to ask a question. I have a raspberry ale in the secondary right now (see the recipe Requiem Raspberry). I was wondering if there is an issue with using gelatin when there is still fruit in the secondary? Will it still clear out?

Getting ready to make this today. Going to toss in blueberries when I rack it to the secondary. I figured with the blueberries I should hold off on the cinnamon sticks. Thoughts?

Man...thanks to all that blow off, I am down to 4 gallons after racking to secondary. Oh well. It's with the raspberries now. Can wait to try

Man...this is a pretty vigorous fermentation. Pic is less than 24 hours

Brewed this yesterday with some buddies. Turned out a little darker than I thought it would. Been in the primary for a little over 12 hours and already has a nice fermentation. Wasn't able to take an OG. Our hydrometer broke!!!

Alright, going to try brewing this a second time. First go around ended in a clogged airlock and the lid blowing in the fermenter. Going to use a Carboy and blow off tube this time around. Stoked!!!

For it all bottled up. Tried a bit...DELICIOUS!!!

Can't wait to try

Going to brew this up tomorrow with my Dad and bro-in-law. Can wait cause this sounds amazing. The people at our local brew store were all intrigued.

Naw...my brew partner has a spare shower in his basement that we everything in. Just a matter of turning it on. Probably will do a coffee stout next then comeback to this in a brew or two.
