That was beer temp. The room is about 60F. I thought it was good. We brew and learn right?

I made a Snow cap clone a few weeks ago, it doesn't taste like Snow cap but I'm okay with that. It does have a banana flavor and I was hoping to get an idea why. The OG was 1.070 and I piched one vial of WLP011 at 68F and it fermented for 2 weeks at 64F to 68F. After the 2 weeks I put it in the...

I've only brewing for a few months and I am going to try my first all grain in October after I move. I've been looking for the same thing, but I thought aluminum was bad. Am I wrong? If I am that could make my life easier.

I've been leerking for a few days and had to join in. I developed a taste for good beer while I lived in Seattle. Then I moved to Zanesville. I went from Micro brew country to macro brew nation. I couldn't handle the fact that I couldn't get an IPA or an ESB at any of the bars in town. For four...
