I was wondering what everyone's opinion on what I should use to make a kegerator. I have seen the chest keezer and fridge kegerator but I have only seen people use them for corny kegs. I am looking to have one tap that I could use for at least a commercial pony keg. I would like to have at least...

So I thought of brewing a beer after eating some Hawaiian pizza that incorporated pineapple in it. Since I've been away from brewing for a little bit I kind of lost a little bit of knowledge about it. When adding fruit into a beer I thought it could be during the boil or in secondary...

I am starting an internship in Florida next week and I'm trying to visit as many breweries down there as possible. I was wondering if they allow growlers from other states/breweries to be used. And Orlando Brewing Company looks like the only fill 32 oz or 1 gallon, which is not the usual 64 oz...

So I've always been interested in cellaring beers but the beers I buy or brew never really last that long. Eventually I want to start cellaring some of them. I know Barley Wines are a popular cellared beer but what are some other kinds. I just bought Delirium Tremens, would that be one you want...

So I am starting an internship in Florida for the next 6 months and I don't want to stop brewing while there. I'm thinking I could just do 1 or 2 gallon batches and letting it ferment in the fridge. Depending on the fridge temp it will be a lager or ale. But I was wondering if there was any...

So I am new to brewing and I haven't done all grain yet but I do visit my local brewery a lot. They have an very good Wee Heavy but they make a second beer with a run off from the left over grain. It obviously doesn't have as high of an alcohol content obviously but it is definitely refreshing.I...

So I was wondering about the Wyeast smack packs. Is it already the starter or do you have to use it to make a starter with it? I know with dry yeast you should make a starter but I have just poured it in to my bucket and carboys. I haven't used liquid yeast yet so this is all new to me. Plus to...

So I brewed Hank's Hefeweizen extract kit about a month ago. The process went well but I feel like I may have left it fermenting too long. I used the dry yeast for it and did not get that real hefeweizen taste I was looking for and I found that it tasted better without the yeast. So now that I...

I just got mine in with test jar and was wondering if there was anything I had to do beforehand to see if I get accurate readings. I thought I may have heard about using distilled water but that could have been for a refractometer. Thanks in advance. I'm excited to finally see the alcohol...

Since Fall is approaching and apple cider is my families drink of choice now, I was wondering about the process of making a hard cider. I know you get unpasteurized cider and add the yeast, but does it create a Krausen like beer does? If it doesn't I will most likely just throw it in my...

Hi, I'm new to the forums and to brewing. I am two extract brew sessions in and enjoyed every second of it. I tend to want to move to the next thing very quickly and for me it would be All Grain brewing. My beers have been pretty good too. I was wondering how many brews/months/years did you guys...
