    Full Boil Brew In A Bag (BIAG)?

    I have traditionally done AG batches as that is what I was taught when I started. I did two partial mash batches last night for a friend and really enjoyed the ease of brewing that way. I have seen a lot of BIAB threads that are usually doctored to work due to small pot sizes, but I have...

    Brewed a tripel, getting unexpected flavors (coffee, raisins, etc)

    So, I brewed the Midwest Belgian Tripel All-grain kit and thanks to some help on the boards, I just kegged it up. I had a taste during kegging and the flavor is waaay different than what I was expecting. The kit says it will have a light, slightly orange flavor. Instead I am tasting coffee...

    Use IC and CFC at same time?

    Has anyone used an IC and recirculating CFC at the same time? I was thinking of picking up a plate chiller to use in conjuction with my 25' IC. Im thinking this would be the best of both worlds except for the extra cleanup. Not a hug deal IMO. Any cons to doing this?

    What would you do with 50' of 7/8" copper tubing?

    I got a 50' roll of 7/8" copper refrigeration tubing for a steal a while back and it has been sitting unused since then. Any ideas of how I could use it best? Background: I do 5 gallon batches of all-grain. I currently have a 25' Immersion chiller.

    Fermenting in stainless vs. plastic

    I currently do all my primary fermentation in a 7.5 gallon keg. The seal is removed and I just plug the mouth with a bung and airlock. Is this any better than doing a primary in a plastic brew bucket? The reason I ask is that sometimes I worry about not being able to fully scrub the inside (I...

    Help with all grain recipe

    I went to my local hbs and I picked up a recipe that they had on hand. The original recipe is for extract but they converted it to all grain for me. Problem is, this is only my second all grain brew and I have no idea how to brew this since they did not have any instructions for the all grain...
