    I brewed a Brett farmhouse ale using the Brett farmhouse strain from ECY. It finished at 1.004 so I Kegged the beer (did not carbonate) and planned to add priming sugar to the keg and then bottle the beer. I do not have a bottling bucket so I use a keg and makeshift bottling gun to bottle my...

    Chugger Pump dead....

    Was brewing this past weekend, went to fire up the pump to transfer water into my mash tun and my pump gave an audible POP, sparks and it tripped the breaker. It will do this each time I plug it in but it will start to pump (propeller and fan kicks on) for about a second. Is this something I can...

    Long Term Bottle Storage

    I have a Brett beer that I would like to store long term in my wine fridge so I was thinking of corking and capping (not caging) the beer in order to prevent liquid contact with the beer cap (wine fridge storage so the beers will be on their side). Does anyone see an issue with doing this?

    Berliner Weisse Comparison

    I have three BW batches under my belt now and am trying to get the style dialed in using sour mash method. The first one was not sour enough, the next too sour and the last one was very good IMO.
