So, lets say I have a yeast that's hard to find, and I want to continue to use it for many batches down the line, but know I won't be able to get it at the homebrew store again any time soon, if ever. Say I also want to build it up to pull X amount out to share with friends to use. Starting...

you have my attention, i'm intrigued

Thanks for the link, that was a good read that gave some distinction between the two flavors that might lead me in the right direction. I'll have to try doing it both ways to see what exactly it is that i'm after. Interesting that one calls for under-pitching. That's the first i've heard of...

have you looked at the pacific jade hops? Pacific Jade Hops Pellets - New Zealand

Sitting out on my deck smokin a fat ass cigar with a nice glass of whiskey to join it, I've decided to reach out to the interwebs for help with a recipe that has frustrated me beyond belief. For years, I've been trying to recreate something similar to Paulaner Hefeweizen or something along...

So I’ve got it kegged up and carbonated, and pulled a few beers. After that... I’ve been letting it sit hoping that any sediment will sink and push out when I pull a couple more to dump. The flavor of the fenugreek is overpowering. If anyone finds this thread and is thinking of making it, I’d...

Brewed it up tonight and is currently being chilled. Gotta say, when I dumped the curry leaves and fenugreek in at :30, the smell scared me. But after cooking down and adding in the rest, it smells amazing. I’m excited to get it fermented and kegged! Weihenstephan wheat (wyeast 3068) should...

I've tried just about every hefeweizen yeast variant on the market and nothing seemed to get me where I wanted to go until I tried the wyeast 3068 Weihenstephan wheat to be honest, I have no idea what curry tastes like, or what it even is. I'll definitely be tasting it before blindly...

Some years ago I had a beer from New Belgium brewing called coconut curry hefeweizen in a bomber bottle. Absolutely loved it. Discovered one of my local bars had it on tap for a tap take over night, but never finished it. I asked them to re-tap it, and I sat there belly up at the bar and...

why is everything on this website so cheap? the shipping is 40 dollars, but it's still significantly cheaper than everywhere else http://www.southernhomebrew.com/enprimeur.html

very good info, thanks! ok, so this one says 18 liter and does include skins. this particular one wasn't on the previously mentioned top 100 list of kits, but several of the cellar classic's were...

the winexpert eclipse australian shiraz seems to have vanished, I'm guessing it was a limited release. This one was on the same top 100 list i saw, but now you guys got me wondering if it's good enough quality...

(unrelated) Ha, I just realized your username Yooper. I spent a couple weekends this last summer visiting the UP. Mostly in Ironwood, but explored copper harbor (and their cool little brewery) and the porcupine mts. Great area in the summer, but it sounds like your winters are worse than...

good info! thanks. The kit we did last year was the petit sirah from williams brewing. http://www.williamsbrewing.com/PETITE-SIRAH-WINE-MAKING-KIT-FOR-5-GALLONS-P3116.aspx So you're saying I shouldnt even mess around with something in that price range if we're expecting a better bottle of...

I've been brewing beer for a few years now, and have gotten that down fairly well. Last year I made a wine kit for my mother, a petite sirah, and after aging in the bottle for about 6 months, we've cracked a couple bottles to give it a shot. Disclaimer: I don't know **** about wine, my...

i'm certainly not intimidated by a little wiring, stc-1000 ordered and will be here by the end of the week. however, I checked the status of the chest freezer i ordered to have delivered to my local menards, since they didnt have any in stock, and the estimated ship date TO the store is the...

Finally, no more bottling!!! I've been saving up for a while to buy all the necessary equipment to do kegging to save myself the madness of bottling. I ordered a 7cf chest freezer from menards that should be here sometime this week. I bought a dual ball lock keg set with a dual pressure...

I'm not. I've only gone local with midwest supplies and northern brewer, both being fairly close to where I live in Minnesota. I had done a quick google search on petite sirah kits and the williams happens to be the only one that i clicked on to look closer at. the bogle site mentions...

hey guys- I have plenty of extra fermenters laying around, so I thought it would be fun to do a batch of wine for my mother. her absolute favorite is a petite sirah by bogle vinyards. http://www.boglewinery.com/ourwines_petitesirah.php Could anyone recommend a kit that may get something...

found this on craigslist, its on the list from the thread linked above. so if i cut out the plastic guts it will fit the two kegs i'm getting? http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/dak/ppd/4552239889.html so do you drill a hole to run in the co2 line?
