I have the ability to obtain a 30qt turkey fryer complete with burner and stock pot. The question I have is simple I guess. Would it be advisable to use the existing stock pot even though it has cooked turkeys, chicken, and other foods in oil? Should I just go out and buy a new stockpot and...

Thank you! I'll check out lowe's, and I can always cut the stuff if it's too long.

I really hate to post this stupid question, but after searching a couple forums I couldn't find the answer. I am going to get some tubing for my "blow off." I was wondering how much tubing I will need. 4Ft enough since it just will go straight into a bucket solution right next to the...

Tonight, Friday Jan 30th will be "Christian Moerlein & The German-American Citizens League Present: Moerlein Emancipator Doppelbock Keg-Tapping at the Cincinnati Donauschwaben Society. This is another good doppelbock by Christian Moerlein. Link to the event...

I don't think I've tried the christmas brew. I will agree with you that Hofbrau rocks! If I could, I'd live in that place, drink all the beer, and eat all the pretzels and beercheese I can stuff in! The Adulterator has to be one of my favorites (next to the dunkel) that they offer there...

I guess I may have put this in the wrong section .. oh well. :o

So, we are getting closer and closer to bockfest here in cincinnati!! For any of you who live in or near the city; Hofbrauhaus Newport just tapped the Feburary beer the "Adulterator" which is a delicious Dopplebock. If you haven't already you need to stumble on down and get yourselft a half...

Boy did I open up a can of worms!!:eek: lol Turns out it really just boils down to personal preference as I can tell. Yes, the one advantage of the carboy because you can see through the glass and watch the action. As for the plastic buckets scratching, how are people scratching them...

Ok, I'm still new and I have yet to decide on a kit to purchase. After a lot of reading and thought I've come to a question that I need help with. Why use a carboy? I mean why can't you just use the plastic Food Grade buckets as your primary and secondary? The buckets seem like they would be...

Ok, so I went out last night and tried "Full Sail IPA" and I must say it was delicious. I just think the reason behind me not being very open to Ales at first was that I never drank them. I'm in exterimental mode now and will be trying others soon. :drunk:

Just at Midwest Brewing Supplies. Brewing Starter Kit :: Midwest Supplies Homebrewing and Winemaking Supplies Shawn, I think you hit the nail on the head there with my preferences. While I can enjoy one or two of almost anything I still have my desired tastes. One of those beers you listed...

Maybe I've just been trying the wrong ones. Any suggestions on good commercial Ales I can find at the local grocery or liquor store? In in the cincinnati area we have two places that carry almost any kind of beer you could think of, so I should be able to find close to anything.:drunk:

After reading through John Palmer's online book I see that most lagers require around 8wks and temps as low as 34F. I can do the time easily for I am a pretty pateint man, but I don't think I have a way of maintaining that temp unless I surrender my fridge for that whole time. hehe :D I...

Thank you for the quick response. I think this might be the kit I'm going to go with, but I'll first look around some more. As for the beer, would you or anyone else have a recommendation other than the dunkel? As for Lager taking more time, how much more time?:confused: Still still a...

I've been looking at kits to get started with. I found a kit that is in my price range from Midwest. Its $89 and includes. • 71 page instructional book • 5 Gallon Glass Carboy • 6.5 Gallon Plastic Fermenter with Lid 6.5 Gallon Bottling Bucket with Spigot • 8...

Please keep us posted!! I'm a newbie to yet get started, but my goal is to brew a good Hefe Weizen! Goodluck and happy brewing!! :mug:

I just read through the "How to Brew" by John Palmer. Just read the first section which was the "Crash Course." It doesn't seem that painful or hard to do. The only aspects that worry me is keeping everythin sanitized and avoiding any infection. So, I guess the first step in this process is...

Hello, I just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Jerad and I'm wanting to start getting into homebrewing my own beer. I'm a lover of Lager style beers the most but overall I'm a lover of all beers. I live in Cincinnati Ohio which is a city with a large german influence, therefor my taste for...
