Playing around with an AI generator, I made to pictures from a movie line. both are about the same movie and neither are in said movie. It is beer related. LOL Movie is from1997.

I recently purchased 2 kegs. Owner says they are pin lock. I still have my old C02 regulator setup with quick connects and lines for 2 kegs. It is very difficult to get the quick connects on and off. I do not recall if I had pin lock or ball lock kegs. I do not know what to look for as far as...

Has this been done? Hoping to get an orange flavor from the yeast. No temp control for this one. Only concern are the current temp swings in NE Ohio. High 40s overnight to low 90s during the day. Temps have not been that drastic in a single day but over the past week. 5 gallons to the keg batch...

Looking through posts, I don't really see many using stir plates. Years ago, they were everywhere. I never had one but I also don't brew big beers. Now that I have the space, I might. I did order a large flask. I used to have one but not sure where it ended up. Also got a small stir bar. I...

I ordered enough to brew 2 batches of BMs Centennial Blonde. First batch will be original. 2nd batch I am swapping 2 pounds of biscuit malt for 2 pounds of 2 row and I will be using a Kyviek Voss yeast. I have never used biscuit malt or the Voss yeast. I have also not made the Centennial...

I recently started dehydrating fruits and vegetables. I have a couple quarts of dehydrated oranges and pineapple. Regular apples and frozen banana didn't work well for me. Reading through some posts about fruit additions, I shouldn't add before fermentation is complete. Make a tincture or...

I know BIAB can use a finer crush than traditional all grain. Pros and cons on running grains through the blender after having the brewhouse mill them or even milling at home? I just got a tall hand powered mill. Same question for adjuncts like rice, corn, oats etc.

I have not brewed in about 8 years. I have also never used rice. Do you use rice whole or do you grind it? If ground, to flour or just crushed? Would using jasmine or basmatti rice cause off flavors? Both are very aromatic when cooking. Not sure I will ever use rice but thought I would ask anyway.

My brew kettle is 5 or 6 gallons. I forget which. Bought it in 2014. Actually I have 2 but can't remove the spigot on the 2nd. It leaks around the outside after being dropped. I will get it removed and replaced soon. I have a 3 gallon pot I use for extra water. When I was making beer, years...

Life has been busy the last several years. Have managed to keep my brew equipment. Getting ready to place my first order in many years. Wondering what I should brew first. I do need to get a few small items before I begin brewing again. Don't trust any of the glass thermometers and such...

Just curious if anyone has a recipe to share. Midwest has a Fuggles IPA kit. Sounds interesting. Have been wanting to try Mosaic for a while now. If not, I can order the Fuggles IPA kit. I brew AG. Thanks, Bill

Making 5 gallons of Ed Wort's Haus Pale Ale and 5 gallons of charlie Papazian's Good Life Pale Ale. Both sound delicious. So far everything is going great. Both mashed in. Hitting all numbers so far. Just mashing today. Will boil and cool and pitch tomorrow. I get off at 4 am so nothing...

In Papazian's 3rd edition of "The Complete Joy of Homebrewing" his recipes are in HBUs. If I understand correctly, you just take the HBU number and divide by AA%. Is this correct? Making his Good Life Pale Ale on pages 294-296. My Fuggles are 4.2% AA. The HBUs called for in the recipe are 8...

1st question, I brewed a 5 gallon batch of Biermuncher's Centennial Blonde Easter Sunday. It sat in the primary until 2 days ago when I racked it to the keg. It was in the kitchen on the floor the whole time. Will there be any unwanted tastes or smells? I have made it previously but always...

I bought a bunch of AG stuff from a guy on CL and he included 3 corny kegs with a 5 lb CO2 cylinder with a newer dual gauge regulator. I work 60-75 hours per week so I do not get much time for research. I know I want to build a keezer but I live in a 1 bedroom efficiency. I have room for a 5 cu...

All-grain beer brewing equipment/system. These are heavy revere-wear copper bottom boil and mash pots that have false copper bottoms with ball valves and braided stainless steel hoses. They hold temperature very nicely. Main pots are some of the last (Revere stopped making the copper bottom 5...

I recently purchased some pretzels and animal crackers that came in large plastic containers. 1 is 1.5 gallons and the other is 1.88 gallons. They are similar to big mouth bubblers and are HDPE 1. Really interested in trying some test batch smash recipes. However, I do not want 5 gallons of beer...

I have the opportunity to get 2 more 10 gallon water coolers for free. My question is this; What if I put ball valves in both and used them to put ice water in to run through a wort chiller. Use a pump for recirculating the ice water. Thanks; Bill
