I'm wanting to up my brewing capacity for 2 kegs (40 litres). I pressure ferment and therefore want a fermentersaurus / fermzilla. Is the 35L capacity fermenter enough for 2 kegs (maybe a bit of a squeeze) or should i get the the 55L? In my mind the extra headspace shouldn't be too much of an...

I am trying to replicate a desert in a beer and thought it would be cool to add the biscuits (cookies in American, not American biscuits) from the desert into the mash as well. I have added bread to the mash before with no issues but I’m wondering if anything could go wrong with adding biscuits...

We have a summer desert dish here in Denmark called Koldskål which is essentially biscuits in buttermilk flavoured with lemon and vanilla and I'm thinking about making this into a beer using lactose, lemon peel and vanilla bean. I'm thinking about a White IPA. For my grist I'm thinking: 50%...

Hi, a couple of friends and i have got tired of bottling so want to move into kegging. Given we'll want to share the beers a kegerator setup is too static, so i was looking into the most portable 19L corny keg set up and wanted something like the image below (19L corny keg, tap directly...

Hi guys, A local shop has 5kg cans of papaya on sale for veryyyy cheap. I was thinking of making a simple pale ale then racking off onto the papaya for secondary fermentation (or just adding late in primary to save the hassle of racking). My question involves if there's any issues with the...

i have an english recipe calling for oat husks and an american recipe asking for flaked oats, is there a difference? i didnt know oats had husks?

Has anyone ever brewed using bread? I've heard it can be done by just adding the bread to the mash and i can't see why that wouldn't work and add sugar to the wort? I would use left over sourdough ideally as i can get that from where i work, would the sourdough yeast have any effect? in my mind...

Quick question, sounds super obvious, when calculating priming sugar do you use the volume in your FV or the volume in your bottling bucket? i've always used the volume in my FV and added the syrup straight into there but last time i racked the beer on top of the sugar solution into the bottling...
