@bikermatt I use to drive volvos mostly. I now operate a liquid nitrogen plant. @RPh_Guy I kinda poured and some got poured and some stayed in the stainless pot. I guess I was just being lazy and didn't think it would hurt.

I'm reading this guessing I did it all wrong. I have a 1 gallon primary and I just poured everything from the brewing pot into it. Maybe I should have tried to strain everything? Maybe its not too late and I can strain after I ferment? Its been about a week in the fermenter.

What is a tried and true recipe example? I have heard mead is horrible tasting although I have never tried it. Cider sounds interesting, but haven't tried that either.

How does that work? Are you saying it is possible to ferment in a bottle? I thought an airlock was a necessity? I don't quite understand the process but I am familiar with aerobes and anaerobes. I am just thinking that would be hard to clean? Maybe there is a trick to cleaning bottle with a...

I got this old freezer that I don't use. Is that helpful? Its like 6ft long chest freezer. I also have unlimited liquid nitrogen and oxygen since I make the stuff.

I guess I am confused what the difference is between a recipe kit and BIAB(brew in a bag)? Does the LHBS usually carry that type of stuff? I'm in Oklahoma City so I'm sure there are a couple.

My wife bought me a mancrate beer kit as a gift for Valentine's day. I cooked it up in my 2 gallon stainless stock pot and I have been fermenting for around 3 days now. My question is: Where should I go from here? My main reason for not acquiring a bunch of brewing equipment was lack of...

My wife got me this kit: http://www.mancrates.com/projects/micro-brewed-kit I wasn't sure what else I needed to get going. I think I am missing a pot and bottles? Is there a foolproof guide? What has hindered me in the past is I don't really have a great sink to clean up. I live in a...

I want one

Is there a certain way to go about practicing?

Am I going to like the results with the equipment I described?

I'm gonna read read read, just wondering if that is something good to start with or am I going over my head. I'm kinda confused on these kits if they are beginner kits or are some of them more advanced?

I'm looking at ordering the oldcastle recipe kit from Midwest Supply. I'm getting the el cheapo beginner kit for $59 as well. Is there anything else I should know?

the brix on the sucrose syrup is 67% usually(what is brix anyways) and I don't know about the HFCS. I think it is 55% Fructose.

The American Medical Association in June 2008 helped put to rest a common misunderstanding about high fructose corn syrup and obesity, stating that "high fructose syrup does not appear to contribute to obesity more than other caloric sweeteners." Even former critics of high fructose syrup...

So how much HFCS would I use in the typical 5 gallon batch? The sucrose I was talking about is melted down to a syrup. I don't know if that makes a difference?

I have the el cheapo, coil stove with oven below. Do your bottles normally age outside of the fridge? At what point do you refrigerate them? Do people on here drink warm beer normally? I'm a cold beer drinker.

Oh yeah, forgot about the bathtub. I don't know the color of St Pauli Girl. I'm colorblind. I believe its darker than Heineken? Sam Adams is better maybe? I was just thinking of different scenarios:1. blinchman indoors2. blinchman outdoors with burner3. turkey fryer and burner outside...

Why would HFCS be better to carb with? Why didn't they carb anyways? What does the boilover mean(I'm a little new)?
