    What's your favorite new brewing gadget?

    It's been a year or so since I have frequented the forum. Every time I'm away for a while it seems that vendors have come out with a bunch of cool new gadgets. So that's the question. What are the best new brewing gadgets that have come out?!

    Bulk hops

    I used to order all of my bulk hops from hops direct but it seems they don't have the selection or the ability to keep hops in stock that they used to. I waited on ordering 2011 crop hops until they had more available, and now most of the hops I like to order in bulk are out of stock for the...

    What are three year old hop plants worth?

    Hey all. I have a couple hop plants (a magnum and goldings) that I am going to dig up and get rid of. I figured I would put them on Craigslist so hopefully they will find a good home but I have no idea what to ask for them... Any help?

    Red Wings Beer!!!

    I've decided to make a Red Wings Beer. I'm going to brew it using top quality ingredients but age the beer until it's past it's prime! It will be nice and weak so you can drink it in 5! GO SHARKS!!!

    Cleaning and Sanatizing Cornies

    Do most of you disassemble and individually clean and sanatize your posts and dip tubes when you are cleaning your kegs, or is it enough to just make sure cleaner and sanatizer are run through both of the dip tubes and valves?

    My first two AG batches suck

    The title says it all. I'm pretty bummed right now. I just switched over to all grain and I put together the equipment to do 10 gallon batches. For my first two 10 gallon and AG batches I chose to do Edworts Haus Ale and BM's Centennial Blond. I brewed the Haus Ale 4 weeks ago and the Centennial...

    Starter Question

    I know it's not generally necessary to make a starter with powdered yeast (just rehydrate) for a 5 gallon batch. How about with 10 gallon batches? Thanks in advance:)

    Splitting Crowns

    I just received a good size hop crown from fresh hops. I think I would like to split it in two but I'm not sure how. Do I just cut the sucker in half and call it a day? I've searched but didn't find anything. Also, is there any disadvantage to splitting the crown. Should I expect less of a...

    My Lactose turned to crystals

    I'm making a batch of the infamous Cheesefood VCCA. Last night I boiled 2 cups of water with 8 oz of lactose for my final addition. I boiled them together for 20 minutes then covered it and placed it in an ice bath in the sink to cool. When I came back to it 30 min later, my lactose/water...

    I've lost 2 tanks of CO2 in the last 2 weeks

    Well, last night I racked a couple of beers into kegs. When I went to pressureize the kegs and purge the oxygen my co2 tank was drained... again. :mad: The last tank I lost I assumed it was a finiky pressure release valve in one of the kegs it was connected to. I fixed the valve, refilled the...
