Hello everyone! I'm pretty new to all grain brewing, but I just kegged my 4th full all grain batch today, tasted it, and darnit it was sour again! I'd like to ask everyone what I could possibly be doing wrong and perhaps get a sanity check on what I think the problem is. I think the problem...

Hello everyone, I'm fairly new to all grain brewing, though I do have a fair bit of experience in partial mashes. I'd like to try to make a Smithwick's clone and I found a thread on here that looks absolutely perfect: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/forum/threads/smithwicks-clone.594395/ My issue...

So I decided to experiment with a smokey lager. Started with a Munich Helles and tossed in some peated malts for the smoke flavor. About 5 days into carbonation phase (12 days into lager rest) I lost patience and tapped it. It had a distinct smoke flavor to it that was very pleasant. It's now 4...

So, uh... I sort of built this automatic heating rig using a tilt bluetooth thermometer/hydrometer, google app script and IFTTT connected to a Wink smart power strip which has a 40W heating element plugged in. Basically, I do an internet and it automatically turns the heater on an off to...

Hello all, This question is about my first ever batch of beer. I'm so thrown by what I just saw because everything leading up to tasting this beer has been so promising. I'm trying to brew a Spotted Cow (Farmhouse Cream Ale) Clone based on this thread...

Hello all, First time poster here. I've done a ton of research on this topic and couldn't find a decent answer so I decided to sign up and post a question! I'm a new brewer and I'm doing research into what I'd like to do for my second batch. (First batch I tried BrewNinja's spotted cow clone...
