    Designing label on GrogTag

    I wasn't quite sure where to put this question, so I guess it'll go here. I'm wondering if anyone has any experience or tips on how to design their own label on grog tag? I was hoping to make something a little nicer than just the photo itself. I was really trying to get it closer to the...

    Fermentation Chamber or just get a chest freezer?

    dang! Thanks! That's pretty much what I'm looking for. I think I'm definitely leaning more towards the chest freezer. Any suggestions on where to look?

    Fermentation Chamber or just get a chest freezer?

    Nice, would you recommend the outdoor unit over a chest freezer?

    Fermentation Chamber or just get a chest freezer?

    Hey, so I wanted to get some opinions on this before I go and make any moves. So I have the J&J Temp Control as well as an inkbird. I've been scouring craigslist and have seen a few ads for some chest freezers. The best one I've seen is an 8cu. ft. chest freezer for $125. The only...

    Winter Seasonal Beer Holly (Christmas Ale)

    Well I just used Safale-05, sooo I dunno if it’s like Nottingham or not... sorry, I’m kind of new to all this.

    Winter Seasonal Beer Holly (Christmas Ale)

    Perfect, thank you! You answered it. One more quick question. How imperative is it to keep it at 64F? I dont have temp control for all of the beer I made and its day 3 of the fermentation. They've been remaining around 70F. Will that mess the flavors up at all?

    Winter Seasonal Beer Holly (Christmas Ale)

    Sorry to bring this back from seven years ago, but I'm just wondering if you should let the spices sit in the keg for the same amount of time you would let it sit in a bottle for the sake of the flavors? If you do let it sit, should I keep it in a refrigerator, or at room temp?

    Purchasing a new brew kettle

    I was checking out their site today and couldn't find that section. Could you point me in the right direction?

    Purchasing a new brew kettle

    Hmm, yeah I've always been a "go big or go home" kind of guy when it comes to equipment. Maybe I will go with the 20gal.

    Purchasing a new brew kettle

    Well, as the title says I'm thinking about getting a new brew kettle. I want to be able to make 10gal batches easily and maybe a lttle more depending on what I'm making (currently have two glass carboys for fermenting, one 5gal and one 6 gal) Should I just shoot for the 15gal kettle? These...

    Higher alcohol content than yeast is rated for

    So I made a tripel with an alcohol content of about 13%. The yeast is rated for 12% (Wyeast 1214). I doubt it would make that much of a difference, but I was wondering what happens when you exceed the alcohol rating for the yeast? Do they just die, or slow down, or what?

    Fermenting problem? No airlock activity/bubbles

    Just looking at it I'd guess that its not a good seal around the temp probe. I might try wrapping it in some thread sealer? Sometimes it just needs a little something to make it air tight. Hope this helps!

    Merry Monks Clone (ANYBODY?)

    Well, here we are in 2017, and I figured I'd just let you know I made this beer today. It was my first all grain! I ended up with an OG of 1.100, haha. I didn't quite hit the target temp so I let it sit for about 45min longer. A little more alcohol never hurts! Just wanted to say thanks for...
