Due to technical difficulties in my last brew day, (dropping my mash tun and spilling wort all over the floor) my OG ended up being 1.043 and not the target 1.063. It’s an IPA and I would like to keep the alcohol content up around 6%. I’m projected to be 4% That being said I’m thinking of...

I'll let you know. They open on Monday that's why I was asking.

Got some old oxygen dive tanks that need to be rehydro'd. Can these be converted to hold C02 or Nitrogen? Want to start a nanobrewery in the next year and should have use for the larger tanks Thanks!

Measured with cooled wort as I always do. Took multiple samples and made sure my hydrometer was calibrated correctly. So what you're saying is that my temp was too high causing my conversion to crash out.

Sorry for the delay. I have used wheat malt before without issue. But I;m starting to think that I should have gone a little tighter on the crush. Pre-boil volume is 15gal, after postboil is about 12gal. Single infusion batch sparge with no mash out. Saw that the wort was significantly...

Need help, no clue what happened, scaled a 5 gallon recipe to a 11 gallon (into the fermenter) and ended up with a gravity reading a full .020 lower than expected. Probably my 20th batch, never had an issue scaling before. Grain bill 9 lbs Pale Malt (2 Row) US (2.0 SRM) Grain 1 45.0 %...

So if these are ornamental hops what should I expect to taste flavour wise?

Warning: hop growing newb Hi all, I have been growing one kind of hop that I bought probably 6 years ago. I assumed it was cascade based on a quick article that was telling me what types of hops would grow in my region. I now realize that there's a lot more types that can be grown where I am...

So my grain bill is now 3lbs flaked wheat, 6lbs wheat malt, 9lbs pale malt 2-row, seems to be a much more agreeable fit with Beersmith tolerances. Switched the orange peel to 5 minutes as well. Using RO water

Thanks for the replies. Just going to switch over from flaked to malt. That's what the recipe called for but after I read the BJCP guidelines I switched the malt to flakes. Water sucks. Recently started using RO water from a local supplier so I don't think that's the culprit.

About to brew my first Witbier and it's hopefully going to be drank by a decent sized group of friends. How does this look? 15 gallon boil volume, 11 gallon batch size. Mash is double infusion light body (from Beersmith 2) 9 lbs Pale Malt (2 Row) US (2.0 SRM) Grain 1 45.0 % 9 lbs Wheat...

Making a 15 gallon Czech Pilsner. Looking for a substitute for Wyeast 2001 Urquell lager. I like using dry yeast and I like the lesser cost as well. Thanks

It's not normal for me because trub is something I try very hard to keep out of the bottles. Once tried bottling from fermenter bucket, stired up the trub by accident, and had what you had. Usually I have none

In! Would love this!

I never got a chance to ask questions because I never got an answer to my initial question. Apparently answering "how much is shipping to Ontario?" Was too difficult for them to comprehend.

I have up and bought an Ontario sourced Mash King and I love it. From purchase to my door was 3 days. Wish I didn't waste so much time trying to contact them. I cannot comprehend why they would have such non existent customer service. I don't even know what their service is like because I've...

That's where I would go but the brugear stuff is on sale and the American dollar is kicking the snot out of the Canadian dollar.

Called everyday for past week and a half. No one answers the phones on any extensions. Emails are not returned. I'm starting to think they've gone out of business and no one has announced it yet.

Hey all, looking to purchase a new boiler in the 15-20gal range. Was really hoping to get this from Bru Gear http://www.bru-gear.com/ProBoilertm-15-Gallon-Kettle-Gen-2-with-optional-customization_p_87.html But unfortunately after multiple emails and phone calls, no one has returned any...

So far have called, left messages, emailed, and responded to an email they sent about not completing my order. It's like they don't want my money!
