    Is My Beer Infected?

    Sorry for the bad pic, it's the best I could get with my phone. This was brewed on the 4th of this month, it's a Vanilla Porter extract kit. I checked the FG on the 20th & again on the 22nd, it's was the same. So on the 22nd, I racked it on two Vanilla beans that I steeped in 170 degree water...

    Found These @ A Cheap price

    I found this for 99 cents @ a local dollar store, they are 40oz. What I plan on doing with this is to paint it with a dark Acrylic paint, put in the oven to bake the paint. It will be dish washer-safe. Question, has anybody else tried this? The pace where I got it has a lot of them. I'm hoping...

    Fermentation Is Slowing Down

    I did my first batch on the 15th, fermentation was going crazy by the next day. Checked today & it's really slowed down. I know that you don't have to do the carboy thing, but I wanna start another batch. Should I give it at least 5 days until I change it to the carboy? Once it's in the carboy...
