Thanks for the input, I am going to leave the bottled beer in it storage area (which is in the basement around 74 degrees) for another 2 to 3 weeks before I try one a see what happens.

I brewed a bock beer from an extract and this was the first batch that I put in a secondary fermenter. I left it in the secondary fermenter for 2 1/2 weeks before bottling it. After two weeks there is almost no carbonaton at all. This the first batch that I have had do this. I followed the...

Has anyone ever tied a BB European Bock Extract kit and let the beer ferment like an ale instead of a yeast. I know the kit says that the yeast will do fine like an ale but I was just wandering if anyone else has tried this and how did it do?

I recently brewed a True Brew IPA kit with a few additions. I added a pack of Cascade hops, some Citra hops, and what came with the kit. I like a hoppy tasting IPA. Well after two weeks of waiting for the beer to carb, I tried a bottle. I will have to say after what I added to it and the...

Since getting back into the hobby, I have brewed two different styles. The first was a Porter from a True Brew kit. I had good luck with it and the instructions were not to bad if you researched the process ahead of time. I brewed a second batch of IPA this weekend from a True Brew kit. No...

I have used True Brew extract/grain kits. I made a porter and added some coffee to the last 2 gals and the beer came out great. I added some extra hops to it but so far every bottle has not let me down.

I left out the coffee and added some Willamette hops to the recipie and I am impressed with the results. It has been...

Time to vote this clown out of office. He is probably one you will see coming out of the liquor store just before closing.

I think that I am gonna add about 3/4 pot of coffee to the wort just before I bottle it. It shouldn't add any bitter taste, just the coffee taste. It will be going into a 5 gal batch. Will let you know.

Brewed a batch of porter from a True Brew kit yesterday. I added some other hops from a recipe that I found and when it is ready to bottle I am gonna add some coffee and make a coffee Porter. It should be ready to bottle next Sat or Sun. My first batch from an extract kit. Will let you know how...

The absolute worst beer that I have ever drank was this crap called "Weideman". The stuff smelled so bad I would have quit drinking beer rather than drink that stuff.

I have a True Brew Porter ingredient kit and was wanting to sort of modify it. I was wanting to make a coffee porter out of it. I have read that some people put coffee beans in during the boil and some brew the coffee and add it that way. Any thoughts either way?

Trust me, this stuff that you can get legally is just trash. This is not made from the recipie that Popcorm used. I have a jar of Popcorn's actual stuff that he made and it is no where near this stuff. This stuff could be used for degreaser. A friend of mine new Popcorn and has about 2 gal's of...

Was into the home brewing many years ago and got away from it. Got interested in doing it again and now I am starting back. Found this web site by searching the net. Hope to learn a lot from it.:mug:
