So I bought grains towards the end of July before leaving for vacation with every intention of brewing before I left. Time got away from me (I have a very busy baby!) and when we got back from vacation we got caught up with kitchen renovation, etc etc. My grains unfortunately are unfortunately...

Excited to make this! Ill use actual pumpkin though. It'll be interesting cause I've never added anything else but grain to my mash

I'm in New England and I planted it late (early june I think). So since it was late will it still produce but later? Is it possible to get a male with rhizomes?

So this was my first year growing hops and I know not to expect much for a first year harvest but should I have any hops on my plant?

I'm celebrating with dogfish head Indian brown ale since I am out of ready to drink homebrew, and waiting for these to carb :mug: Unionrdr you sound like a busy man! My goal is to brew once a week or at least 3 times a month

It was especially exhausting since I was taking care of my 5 month old at the same time while the husband mowed the lawn. I have another batch to brew but don't think I have it in me. Guess it can wait till tomorrow

Busy morning bottling an IPA, APA and a blonde. Can't wait till they're ready

I'm no expert but I have made 3 batches of cider over the last couple of years. I've never used apple juice, just fresh cider from a local orchard. I don't know what the difference in taste apple juice Would be but personally I prefer as fresh as possible and apple juice goes trough filtration...

yes I meant saving money by using the jars of yeast. I wanted to make sure I understood the whole generation thing properly. I knew I could wash yeast from the original packet but I wasnt positive if I could wash yeast again from each jar I harvested. At $6 a packet that'll end up saving me a...

so by washing it, it continues to multiply with each batch which will ultimately save $100's right?

I recently washed a batch of wyeast 1056 and got 5 pint jars from it. So far ive used two for a pale ale and a blonde ale. My question is can I get a second generation of washed yeast from EACH batch?

I washed and stored yeast from my last batch and tomorrow I plan on brewing up two separate batches but use the same kind of yeast. My question is do I double my starter (instead of doing 2 cups water and 1/2 cup DME DOING 4 cups water and 1 cup DME) and use two of my pint mason jars of yeast...

I've made 3 5 gallon batches of cider. One was with champagne yeast, and the other 2 with Nottingham. I made each with cinnamon sticks and each one I added some extra sugar but not a lot. The best one in my opinion was the one with champagne yeast. It finished pretty dry and ended up being more...

VERY hoppy wheat

I've never made a fruit beer so I can't offer you advice from experience but maybe you could press them or juice them and add it to your boil. I think (but I'm not sure) people freeze fruit for a period of time to sanitize it then add it to their secondary

oooh whats the recipe for that?? I have an ice cream maker! I am hoping for the best with this extract. Do you guys think the floral and sweet components of it would go well with a citrusy APA?
