Hey all, Just read something about boiling braided tubing prior to use, as to release off flavors/odors. Yay or nay? Thanks! J

Hey all, I'm not a beginner per se, been all grain for over a year, but I did do my first batch with a base of pilsen malt and it tastes a little tangy. I'll post the recipe below, just wondering if this is normal. I can't really describe it as anything but tangy. It's a peach wit. Anyway...

Hey, Got a dunkelweizen carbed up - set it at 25 psi at around 37 degrees. I want to leave it at pressure while serving since we may drink it slowly. Anyway, I had 6 feet of 3/16 beer line and was getting blasted at the tap, obviously. I doubled it to 12 feet of 3/16, put it on the tap ran a...

Sorry, the title should have said Keezer, not keggle. My bad... Hello, We're thinking of doing a lager but it needs to rest at 50 degrees for 20 days. If I do this in my keezer will it ruin my kegged beer, or just leave me with warm beer for 20 days? Im pretty sure it's the latter, since beer...

Hello! question about adding a secondary regulator. Did a bit of a search but couldn't find what I was looking for: I'm going from my primary regulator to a 2 way manifold. 1 way will be out to a keg, second will be to a secondary regulator, then to a second keg. My question is, does the...

Happy new year all! Two part question here: First, making and then kegging an IPA, i want to dry hop in secondary and then keg instead of dry hopping in keg. Thoughts? Second, I'm thinking of using gelatin to clear this beer in keg, but I'm not sure if it's worth it. Will i see...

Hello, So, I brewed my first all grain, a heff, it came out awesome. I checked its gravity and it was stable for 2 days, so I bottled. I carbonated it according to style, which is on the higher side. After a few weeks, some went in my fridge, some in the closet, and I brought a 6 pack to a...

Hello, I brewed my first all grain and got a low OG, 1.038 out of 1.058. Im curious what may have caused this? Should i have boiled it longer checking the gravity during the boil? If this is the case how to I calculate changes in when I add the hops? Also, I calculated my efficency at...

Anyone have a harpoon ufo recipe? Easier than shipping it across the country :mug:

Hello, My boil pot only holds 3.5 gallons, I have to boil 1.5 gallons to make up the rest of the wort. I recently read that you should boil hops in the 1.5 gallon boil for best taste, but do not know what quantity to use or how it effects the IBUs. Anyone know?
