thanks for providing these options. way to think outside the box with that petsmart option. HA!

Does anyone in the Columbus, OHIO Area have a 10 gallon fermenter that I could borrow for one brew?

Would anyone be interested in these homebrew books for free? I am located in Columbus, OH. If you are local, you are welcome to come and take what you want. If you want them shipped, I would just ask that you paypal me for the shipping charges. USPS has decent prices on media mail, it just...

I brew this last year for my church's oktoberfest. Everyone really enjoyed it. I got many compliments after people had it. It's always fun to transition from "oh..... this is homebrewed?" to "wow this is (insert "actually" subtext) good" I was initially worried how it would turn out...

I am currently at 1.015 just about ready for secondary. I guess my yeast just needed a swirl or something. Very odd.

No temperature control other than the house AC. I didn't use any specific cooling on the beer after I put it into the fermenter from my brew kettle. I typically get done brewing and take the beer down to the basement at the end of the day so it will get a bit cooler than what I keep my house...

Well I am shocked right now because one of the comments in this forum ended up coming true, perhaps from me carefully swirling the beer to get the yeast back up without sloshing air into it. It's fermenting again and has dropped down to 1.045 with airlock release happening every 15 seconds. I...

as for the mash temp, if anything it would have been lower than higher. I just put my other tilt in and it's reading the exact same thing. I think I am going to get more fresh us-05 dry yeast to pitch in it.

I don't see any calibration data entered. I did calibrate it in water a while back and haven't had an issue with it at all.

Most of the wort is fermentable. Southern Tier Pumking clone | Holiday/Winter Special Spiced Beer All Grain Beer Recipe | Brewer's Friend (brewersfriend.com) I am fairly certain my hydrometer is accurate. I cannot pull it out to test it in water at the moment because it's too difficult to...

Are people wanting me to take gravity reading with something other than the tilt? I do have another tilt I could drop in there to verify the other one is reading correctly. I watched my airlock today and it releases bubbles about every minute, but the gravity reading has stayed at 1.060 for 7...

My airlock is bubbling about the rate of a finished beer. The tilt isn't stuck, i swirled the tank and it moved around freely. I wonder if my yeast wasn't great even after a starter.

I just tried to give it a little swirl a few hours a ago and see how that goes. I regularly brew dipa with no issues around the same original gravity which is why this is odd. I oxygenated the worry by shaking and sloshing it. I also pour the beer into the fermenter get it a good oxygenated...

So I tried to brew the pumpking clone receipe on brewer's friend. I always use yeast starters to make sure it's healthy. When I pitch my yeast, I always save a bit at the end to populate immediately for storage for the next brew. When I get to my next brew, I am basically already at my stage...

So glad I found this thread. Thank you Biermuncher. Just like the great lakes Christmas ales thread, I committed to reading the entire thing to get different thoughts on how to brew this beer. I am planning to do a 10 gallon batch to provide for my church oktoberfest. I will be doing the...

What's the lowest price you have seen Citra hops on Yakima's site? I ordered from hops direct about a year ago and it was 19.11 a pound including shipping a discount codes.

Thanks for the reply, but I actually ended up finding one.

Are you trying to preserve more ginger flavor or nutrients by doing this? I can say using the blender still has quite the ginger punch.

I received a gift card for christmas to northern brewer but I hardly order from them anymore. I tend to go to my LHBS in combination with other smaller brew supplies for what I typically purchase. My next purchase is a grain mill. I had this dinky philmil that was single roller about 2 inches...
