My local beer shops seem to have run out of most of their Stone beer overnight. I asked the owner what was up and he told me that Budweiser bought them out. I knew that was completely beyond any feasibility. So I went to another beer shop and he said the same thing. I know Stone didn't sell out...

While at a homebrew shop the other day, I wasn't quite sure which grains I wanted to leave with. Its a few hours' drive to a HBS, so I try to leave very well stocked. Lately, I've been trying to keep my recipes fairly simple (usually 3 grains in the grist). Much easier to troubleshoot. The...

So I ordered a couple of Blichmann Brewmometers for my weldless setup. I plan to put one on a Keggle mash tun, and the other on a Bayou Classic Stockpot that I've converted with a ball valve into a boil kettle. Unfortunately, in a hurry, I ordered the NPT versions for the welded brewpots. In...

The FDA is update the Food Safety Modernization Act. Under the new regulations, it will require brewers to regulate their spent grains to the FDA's standards. If brewers chose not to spend on repackaging, testing, and record keeping, they will be left with no option but to dispose of them as...

I'm moving to Yuma, AZ in a few days. From what I remember, there some massive citrus groves on the outside of the Marine base. I was thinking about trying a lambic, and finding a way to leave my wort near the citrus groves overnight. I've never brewed a lambic before and past experience...

I brewed a Belgian wit the other day, I pitched yeast (Wyeast 3944) at exactly 70 degrees F. My fermentation room (just an extra room I leave much cooler) got waaaay cold that night, and when I woke up, I was pretty disappointed to see that I had absolutely zero action in my fermenter. I warmed...

Brewing a Belgian white tomorrow. Anyone have experience with using lemon zest? I'm using bitter orange and coriander, will lemon zest send it off track?

I've been working on a DIPA recently. Just transferred to secondary last night and the malt profile really pales in comparison to the hops. I like it, but it's just not as balanced as I would have liked. It's still got about another week and a half for fermentation, so I don't think I need to...

Hello all, I'm about to begin my first batches very soon. I bought the supplies to make a couple small 1gal. batches. I currently live on a Marine base here, in provided quarters. Space is limited for me, so until I transfer to my next duty station, I'm going to be tinkering with small batches...
