I have 2.75 gallons going into the fermenter for a final volume of 2.5 gallons in the keg. I have brewed two batches on this new little system I have and both times my wort has just tasted kinda "off". Both batches have been around 1.050-1.060 gravity and I have pitched 5 gallon yeast packs in...

I don't know if I had a contamination or not, I'm still trying to figure that out. If I did, would my bucket fermenter still be able to be used? It has only been used once and the first time I used it my beer reeked of sulphur and tasted terrible after fermentation. There are no scratches on the...

I've brewed a 2.5 gallon 1.061 OG NEIPA wort and pitched the Omega yeast packet straight in to the fermenter with no yeast starter. 2 days later there is little to no activity and I opened my fermenter and there is no krausen, but there are CO2 bubbles. It also reeks of rotten eggs. It is...

Help! I am working with an all grain 10g batch keggle system using the "Ultimate Sparge Arm". I have only brewed simple IPAs or APAs. My issue is that I am falling roughly .010 - .020 points below my expected OG every time I brew (only about 4 total so far). Let me explain my mash...

Howdy, I am a relatively new brewer with a 5 gal home kit (extract only) and am looking to create a recipe with the ingredients in the title but am not knowledgeable about achieving these desired tastes. I want it to be hoppy, with a mix of sour and sweet with a tad of saltiness. I want it to...
