hey guys, just filled my second keg about a week ago and I'm having problems I didn't have the first time. I carbonated in the same manner as last time, but this time I'm not dispensing anything but a little foam. After racking to the keg, I purged 5-6 times and set the keg in my spare bedroom...

Just finished up my 4th all grain. They just seem to get easier and easier. This was my first time using anything other that barley(I was making a wit.) I'm glad I read up on here to put some rice in to keep the mash from sticking. Boy was it hard to stir. It felt like I was mixing cement...

hey guys, in preparation for a wheat beer I'm doing in a week or so I stumbled across some stuff at a local German festival. It came in a 1 kg bag titled Weizen. Now I know this is wheat, but the stand that was selling it was also selling bread and I'm sure this stuff is intended to be used to...

I just got home from a wonderful weekend trip to Brussels. I managed to visit the Cantillon brewery, which was one of the oldest and more intimate brewery tours I have ever done, not to mention that the owners/operators where extremely nice people and even gave us an umbrella when we left...

Threw these together last night with a friend of mine. They fit the bombers perfectly. Shi*storm is what I'm calling my operation. I know it's not the cleanest of names but I work on the flightline in the air force.....my vocab isn't the cleanest. CHEERS!!!:tank:

hey guys I just wrapped up my first all grain and I had a blast. I was nervous the whole time, we were fighting off rain, I batch sparged instead of fly sparging because of my mistake not preparing. But in the end there is a carboy in the spare bedroom bubbling away and I have no doubt it will...

Hey guys I finally have all of my all grain equipment together and in a couple of weeks I plan to do my first brew. After reading a few books on all grain that recommend brewing a simple recipe several times, consistently and then changing one thing about the recipe to fully understand how each...
