So I have a small all-grain 2 gal batch going sg was 1.047. when changing to the secondary it was 1.045 and two weeks later its still 1.045. Now I'm drawing from a spigot into a vial for testing but the refractometer reads 1.045 and is not changing. our temps have been low 30s-45s so im not...

So a little backstory. I've always had a 2 or three-roller mill setup. Since the wildfire, I went back to using a stone rolling pin till recently when I was given a corona mill I'm starting to get brews ready for the fair this September and wanted to get it set up so I can get a stout and porter...

Working on a new dark with the grains I have and thinking this could be a decent brew I'm trying to decide whether to use some lactose or maybe some coffee. I'm also thinking of adding either a Tbl spoon of pumpkin pie spice or some other winter spice mix. I wanted to add some heather tips to...

While transferring some of my recipes to brewfather I thought I'd share this one with y'all. This barleywine was one of my very first made to be entered into the county fair back in 2014. This was a 2 staged fermentation process then moving to another carboy for long-term root cellar aging for...

I'm looking to build a small 1 or 2 gal for the testing of new recipes and maybe instalation into an rv later on. Before spending the money to order large amounts of grain I would like to find a way to mouse proof (field mice from the wheat fields surrounding me) my brew-house beforehand. I've...

A friend of mine has Corny kegs somewhere around 15 or so. He has asked me to help sell them so that he can buy wood for the winter since he has a newborn and wants to be ready. All kegs are in decent shape but need a good cleaning. I will post pics once he brings them over to me. Most will...

So I'm rather an old school in some ways. I was taught when I started brewing to always keep an updated MSDS binder in my brewhouse or nearby when brewing. My current Binder seems rather thinner than my old one but for the life of me, I cannot remember what else I should add. Currently, I have...

I got this rather nifty bottle washer in a lot I bought for 5 bucks. it has wire brushes that pop out and spin to clean the inside of bottles. Does anyome know where it's from or what it's called? Also there is this another tool but I have no clue what it is or what it's used for.

Picked up a box of brewing supplies the other day July 30th in this kit was an LBK and a box of two of the Mr. Beer hopped extracts. An American ale and Patriot lager. Looking at the dates they were best by 2015 and it's now 2022. I'm the adventurous type so I decided not only to make the two...

I'm so confused about how to implement the equipment portion of the app and have not found a decent video on the yt to explain most of my equipment. I would love to find someone who is experienced that might be willing to help me next week after I'm finished sorting out some new equipment to...

I was wondering if anyone might have cloned any of the old Narragansett brewing company beers from before they made their comeback. My grandfather was one of their brewmasters in the 70's before they shut the doors in 81 of the Cranston street brewery. When the company made its comeback the...

Hay All I'm Charlaine. I've been away for a while after loosing my home to a wildfire in September 2020 in Malden Wa. . I'm now finally in a position to start rebuilding my brewing setup, and will now be brewing again. While I'm no where near where I used to be but hopefully I can get near to...

So I have been lurking for a while and haven't found any threads mentioning this old brew supply house. I was given an old set of of theirs that had never been used let alone taken out of the box. Looking through their catalog I liked the sound of many of their recipes. Internet searches...

Good day all my name is Charlaine, I'm medically retired U.S. Army in my early 40's and disabled. I'm a long time extract brewer and have only been back into brewing since Feb 2017 after about a 10 year break due to personal and health issues. I only returned to brewing after being given a brand...
