    Equipment

    Over the weekend I was reading a homebrew book and in the list of needed equipment it said to use a grant. Does anyone use a grant? and what is the best way to clarify wort? I was confused with the book it said to recycle the wort from the grant to the mash bucket/barrel/cooler thanks...

    Secondary question

    So this will be my first batch of letting the beer sit in primary for 2 weeks. It took a lot of patience but i'm excited to see how the witbeer turns out! Is secondary necessary? I know it'll have cloudy suspension because of the yeast but is anything after 2 weeks worth it? or should I go...

    Is it just green?

    So I tasted my summer ale yesterday after being in the bottle for a week, it was carbed pretty good, but when I tasted it after fermentation I think it tasted better. It was in primary for 7 before I bottled it and has been in the bottle for 7 days to carb up. Is this just green beer and needs...

    Buying in Bulk

    So I'd like to stray away from kits, but the only concern is that they are so darn cheap and affordable my LHBS has kits for $28 for a 5 gallon kit, so its hard to try to develop a recipe or copy one here and have it be a bit more pricy, how do y'all buy in bulk and still make it affordable? or...

    Any ideas?

    So I've been brewing extract recipes for the past year and most recently have made back to back great beers. Let me know what else might have contributed to this. I personally think they've been good because of the addition of Irish moss, and cooling the wort ASAP after the boil is completed...

    First All Grain Batch

    So yesterday I did a steep to convert kind of recipe. It was a Witbeer, and I've been a extract brewer for the past year. And I'm kinda hooked to all grain everything about it the smell of it was incredible. Even though the recipe called for wheat extract I loved it. Does any one have a...

    Bottling Question

    So I made a Sam Summer Clone, extract partial mash kit, Its been a week and the gravity is 1.012 for about 2 days, i'll check it today but i have a feeling it's going to be the same. Today will be a week since I pitched the yeast. I tasted it at day 5 since visually i could tell primary...

    Aerating Wort For Yeast

    After a few days after the krausen fell i realized that i had just sprinkled my yeast right on top without mixing and putting O2 in the wort. The fermentation was pretty weak krausen was only about a half inch, Since primary was weak should i keep it on the trub for 2 weeks to insure...
