Hola everyone, After I went all grain I used a braided hose filter, and did a batch sparge and sailed happily at 70-72% efficiency for close to 2 years. After trying out no sparge mashing for my last 5 batches, I can say that I will never go back to batch sparging for the following reasons...

Hola friends, This Saturday I brewed my first lager! A schwarzbier that I put together. My OG was 1.048, and I calculated for a FG of 1.008 with 83% attenuation. I pitched 2 rehydrated packs at 57 degrees, and let it freely rise to 59 (the high end of the ideal fermentation range for this...

I've read a few descriptions as to what carbonic acid from overcarbing can taste like, but I have seen different descriptions from the posts I've come across. I changed the placement of my temperature probe and I turned down the temp on my keezer a few degrees, which lead to higher carbonation...

Hello mates, So I have a 1/2 Auto Siphon and I removed the hose to replace with with a 1/2 inner-diameter silicone hose (I can boil it to sanitize it). When i put it on the racking cane I noticed that it fit right in and a little snug, I campled it down and I then noticed that the actual cane...

Hey mates, Today I wanted to use a water profile from Brun' water that had me add some epsom salt and pickling salt (calcium chloride). I have only used gypsum, calcium chloride, and lactic acid before and they have mixed well. I measured calcium chloride, gypsum, epsom salt, and canning...

Firstly, thank you for your time! :) I have been brewing a porter recipe that I came up with and I am currently on revision 2. What I am looking for is a porter with a nice malty back bone, not too thin, with hints of toffee/caramel and a good roast without going over board. On my recipe...

Hello mates, I just want to share something that happened to me as I entered the world of brewing and expanding my beer palate. I, as well as a large majority, was introduced to craft beer with IPAs from Stone Brewing Co. The first time I had an IPA I was just amazed by the taste of hops and...

First of all thank you for your time. :) I started testing wort PH with a calibrated meter after 15 mins of dough-in with a cooled sample down into the 66-68 degrees. There is usually a lot of small little husk/grain particles floating in the wort. Do these little particles affect PH...

I'm so bummed right now. I just brewed a cream Ale with 5.2% alcohol, and as soon as I opened the lid and went for my racking cane I saw some small fruit flies. I quickly tried to swat them away and then I noticed a small one had already fallen on my beer. I scooped it up with a sanitized...

First and foremost THANK you for your time. I have about 14 batches of all grain under me and I am now adjusting water profiles. I use 88% lactic acid, calcium chloride and Gypsum for now. For water I use RO water from a vending machine that tastes fine. Using EZCalculator, my last porter...

Hola mates, Here I am hoping that someone can hopefully put me at rest with a prior experience with this: So I brewed a brown ale with washed yeast and kegged it on Friday. When I opened the lid I noticed what appeared to be a few little ice bergs (what I now think is lactobacillus). I thought...

I am aiming to make an American style porter as I have already brewed an English style some months back and it came out great- but something new is exciting. What I am aiming for here is a beer with a little less body but more focus on a roasted, toffee and hoppy taste. The wheat malt is...

Hello mates! So, I am loving brewing and have now gotten into clarifying beer with gelatin finings. I would love to get a nice shot of the beer to showcase the clarity on photos, but condensation builds up outside the glass and I no longer capture it.:mad: I was reading that pouring warm...

Hello everyone! I have been lurking these forums for a few months and learning a lot- and making mistakes of course! I pulled the trigger and went straight to all grain and I AM LOVING IT. In order to experiment, and for fun :), I went ahead and attempted to make my own recipe: An Oatmeal...
