    Souring a beer I brewed

    Have about 4 gallons left on a 4 month old saison in the keg I just dont enjoy, thinking of adding some souring bugs in a carboy and letting it sit. Anyone try this?

    Mailing previously frozen hops

    I am in the Army and getting out in may. I will be shipping my mosaic hops that are already frozen back home. Will it hurt them to thaw and refreeze them? Thanks..

    Success!

    Tonight marks the 5 week mark my first brew is in bottle. I have tasted them once a week and the progress is amazing. Tonight was the first night my wife has tasted then looked at me and said " I could drink this every night." So here is to learning and improving!

    Norhtern Brewer Megapot boil time?

    Today I was testing out my equipment before I do my first brewday with this equipment next week. I use the 10 gal megapot and a turkey fryer burner. It took 1hr and 45 min to get 6.5 gallons to boil. Is that normal? I want to do full boils and figured 6.5 would be enough to cover my boil loss.

    Boil Size

    This week I will be doing my first 5 Gal brew with the Caribou Slobber from NB. The directions say to boil 2.5 gal the add the rest. Is it alright if I boil 5 then topoff when I put in the frementor. I got a 10 gal kettle and dont want the level to be too low.

    How long do hops last?

    I was cleaning out some boxes the other day and found some old mr beer stuff. Alot of it I threw out ie. the sanitiser and booster, but I held onto a few packets of pellet hops. Im guessint I got this in early 2011. Do you think they are still good haha.

    My new kit idea starting from the Northern Essential kit..

    So here is what im looking at so far to get my in home brewery started. I started a few years back with the MR Beer and just didnt enjoy the process as it seemed to cut and dry. I was talking to one of my cigar buddies and he mentioned his wife got him a kit from Williams and I loved going over...
