I have a friend coming in from the Ukraine and would like to treat him to some "Ukrainian " style beer of which I'm not too familiar. He likes witbier styles and I did some research and found a decent Obolon Bile that is like a weisse bier. I can brew a good standard witbier but what style of...

Any ideas for a friend from the Ukraine on a popular beer from their. I would like to brew a 10 gallon all grain batch. He likes witbier so I thought of a Obolon Bile clone? thanks

I have a friend coming in from the Ukraine and would like to treat him to a predominant Ukrainian style beer. I'm not to familiar with Ukranian beers but I know he likes a witbier style and have found a beer called Obolon Bile. (nice name huh?) I can brew a standard witbier but would like to...

Any suggestions on a AG clone recipe of Magic Hat's Encore. I tried it last night and was pretty impressed. It is sort of a wheat IPA with a great hop aroma. Magic Hat's website gave the basic kind of hops, I think it was Simcoe and Hallertau and the grains but no amounts or percentages. I'm not...

I have all the equipment necessary to make a hop "filter" similar to the famous Randall the enamel animal from Dogfish. I grow my own hops and have brewed an under hopped pale ale so I want to enhance the hoppiness with this technique. I grow Williamette, Cascade and BC Goldings and brewed the...

Doesn't make sense! Somebody help me figure this one out! Facts of the mystery: 10 gallon all grain brew of winter Lager. No problems to report during process. I use 15.5 a sanke keg as my BK and drain the wort out through a ball valve into 2 seperate 7 gallon plastic ferment buckets. I fill...

I just thought of this- Tonight I cold filtrated my all grain IPA with a 1 micron nominal disposable filter. Im not sure what nominal means other than its a throw away and cheap. (something like $2.99) I almost always keg but decided to bottle it for a party coming up. I use Coopers carb drops...

I'm trying to brew a 10 gallon all grain clone of Sam Adams winter lager this Saturday. My spices already include 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1 oz. ginger root and 2 oz. bitter orange. I would maybe also like to add a little nutmeg. whadda ya think? also I was planning on throwing them in around 15 min...

I'm almost done with my set up. 3 sanke kegs with welded in couplers, Blichmann brewmometers, sight glasses. Looks good! I bought a nice welded industrial style rack with plenty of capacity and put some nice casters on it. I cut to size some heavier duty metal shelving for the burner grates...

I want to install my new Blichmann weldless brewmometer on my sanke kegs and am not sure the best height to drill. I'm concerened about too much heat from the bottom (propane) but would like the possibilities of still making 5 gallon batches. Thanks

Lets see what everybody else does. It's my first year with homegrown hops. (Cascade, Williamette and Goldings) After harvest I immediately put them in a food dehydrator and set it on its lowest setting (95 Deg) so as not to damage any of the oils. I have found that approx. 30 hours brings them...

Whats better? I have a nice stainless bazooka tube that can easily be screwed into a 1" coupler that I TIG welded near the bottom. My feeling is however that I will be missing approx. the bottom 1.5 gallons of wort since the tube is perfectly horizontally extended from the coupler instead of...

I just finished harvesting about 15 oz. of homegrown Cascade hops. I also have about 2 oz. of Goldings and 1 oz. Williamette. This is my first year growing my own hops and would like to make a nice 10 gallon all grain batch using my own hops. I would like to make a very hoppy ale (IPA etc.) to...

Been brewing for a few years and just started growing hops. I have Cascade, Williamette and Goldings. This is my first harvest and I'm trying to do everything right. From everything I read it looks like they needed to be harvested. The Cascades grew incredibly fast and have developed a bumper...
