Well it took 2 years in cold storage but a holiday ale I brewed 2 years ago is finally where I wanted it. Just cracked a bottle and it is fantastic. Long story short I brewed an English brown ale with cinnamon and nutmeg a couple years ago and although the beer was always drinkable it never met...

Hey guys quick question. This all grain recipe calls for a secondary fermentation. ~10 days in primary and ~2-4 weeks in secondary last 5 days dry-hop. I really don't like to do secondary fermentation unless absolutely necessary. I really want to get at this beer fast:) My plan is 3 total weeks...

I had a "genius" idea of filtering my beer through a funnel with a mesh screen when I was racking from my primary to my bottling bucket. Now I'm hearing I probably ruined my beer from exposure to oxygen. The beers in the bottle now so I guess I'll just wait and see. Anybody had experience with this?

Ok guys quick question. I made my first starter last night but severely missed my calculation. I did 1 cup of DME with 3 cups water and boiled for 10 minutes. I never checked the original gravity. I pitched one vial of white labs yeast into the chilled wort I used a mason jar topped with...
