    Peanut butter stout?

    I have a local brewery called 4 Hands. They have a PB Milk Stout called Abscence of Light. The PB taste is so subtle at the end, it's friggin delicious. I wonder if maybe doing s small pre-rinse of PB2 would help rid of some of the salt and some lactose would help to retain some of the desired...

    Using Stir Plate While Using Immersion Wort Chiller to Rapidly Cool Wort

    I'm too cheap to buy a pump right now and I actually use a DIY stir plate on my electric brew kettle when heating strike/sparge water. My temp probe is at the bottom of my sight glass. If I don't stir the probe never reads correctly until I overshoot. Adding my stir plate with a 2 inch bar...

    Wyeast Danish Lager 2042 Starter Color

    I started 2 yeast starters 48 hours ago. One was a Pils lager yeast I've used before, the second was Wyeast Danish lager. After 48 hours on the stir plate, the Pils starter looks like what I'm used to seeing, a nice milky color. The Danish lager year however, looks like almost pure starter wort...

    German Hopped Pale Ale Feedback

    So I'm thinking about brewing up a pale ale with some American style German hops I just got. I guess what I'll call a GPA, Germerican Pale Ale? 11 gallon batch split between two buckets. OG: 1.056 | FG: 1.014 | IBU: 43 | SRM: 8 Ingredients Grain -18lb Belgian 2-Row (75%) -5lb Munich Malt...

    Electric Kettle: 1.5" TC and Ripple Element question

    I'm pretty new to the electric game with only a one 10 gallon batch and one 5 gallon batch under my belt. I went with the 1.5" enclosure and 5500w fold back stainless element from BrewHardware and couldn't be happier. I'm all grain so I can't speak to the dangers of scorching if doing...

    Help w/ kegerator question!! thanks!

    One nice thing about being able to control two different pressures is when you're wanting to force carb a keg. I set it to 36PSI for 30 hours and then bump it down to serving pressure and purge the excess. The keg is usually pretty well carbed up in about 2-3 days vs. 2 weeks if you set it...

    Electric Brewing Supply reviews

    I ordered the eBIAB kit and enclosure, even though the build is not complete I'd say I'm happy so far. I was driving myself mad trying to look for the best deals on each component and trying to figure out the exact build that I wanted. I finally got fed up and just ordered the kit. The cost...

    Saison Cottage House Saison

    Brewed this up for my third time yesterday. First was with 3711, second was with 3724. I ran into the much reported stall on that batch. Thank goodness two weeks of that wait was spent in Austria/Germany. Yesterday's batch was pitched with 3726. Looking forward to seeing how this strain turns...

    Electric Brewing - Ventilation

    Not to hijack this thread but I'm wondering if anyone could offer some input on a venting solution for my soon to be electric setup. I'm going to be heating and boiling in the same kettle and it will be directly beneath a basement window that's 28x28 inches. Don't let the propane stand throw you...

    Trying to Decide Between HotRod Heat Stick or Kettle Mounted Element

    I'm in the process of planning out a conversion to electric and was pretty much set to do kettle mounted until I saw the HotRod heat stick. Wondering if anyone has input on using a heat stick vs. element installed in kettle. I'll have 30a with GFCI breaker available and plan on doing 5500w...

    Cheers from St Louis Missouri

    Welcome! Also from STL here. I started out having never brewed and jumped right into all-grain about 9 months ago. This site has been a life saver.

    First Lager - Oktoberfest Fermentation Question

    This is the first time I've done a lager and I have a question about how long I should ferment. I know the recipe calls for 21 days, but I'm already below the FG of 1.014, I'm currently at 1.010. I used the below recipe with a few modifications...

    Saison Cottage House Saison

    This has been kegged for about a week now. Hoping that it will clear up a bit more after sitting for another week or so. Couldn't be happier with the results from my second attempt at brewing.

    Irish Red Ale Raging Red Irish Red Ale

    This was my first solo attempt at brewing. Brew day pretty much went according to plan. This has been kegged for close to two weeks and it's starting to clear up a bit, and tasting great!
