Finally tapped the keg of my last batch. It has a sour apple aftertaste. What did I do wrong? Is it time to dump this batch?

Noticed there was already a thread or two about fermentation temps. Sorry if this is redundant... I brewed a light ale last weekend and left the carboy in the garage all week while I was in and out of town at work. Went into the garage tonight (where the carboy has been fermenting all week)...

Scored an old Kenmore fridge today! So, I get the thing and start gutting it. Pulled the shelves out and the crisper drawers at the bottom. That is when a potential problem occurred to me... Go about 9 inches in and the bottom (where the crisper drawers used to be) is slanted toward the...

Racking is definately the most frustrating part of the brewing process for me. Today, racking into my bottling bucket, my siphon crapped out with about a gallon of fermented wort and a bunch of trub left at the bottom of the carboy. I use one of those sterile siphon starters they sell on...

Just moved to Colorado. Might as well be Utah. They say that you can only buy 3.2 beer in the grocery stores here. So I see all the big brands in full strength and lite (GHTs included)... For a minute, I think that it was all a conspiracy and that all the major brands are 3.2 beers. Bud...

Just moved and the new house's well pumps out some sulpher smelling water. Not exactly what you want to smell while you are trying to relax and have a beer. So, to get to the question, any chance this will boil off or will the wort's beautiful smell overpower it? Or, am I buying arrowhead...

Left my copper wort chiller in a bucket of bleach solution overnight. Woke up to green tarnish all over the coper. How do I fix it?:confused:

Brewed up a pilsner about 4 weeks ago. I was going to transfer to 2ndary after two weeks, but the airlock was firing once every 7-10 secs. Finally, shortly after the end of the third week, the airlock slowed down to once every 20 sec so I transfered to the 2ndary. Now it is firing once every...

I am relatively new to this forum and I am an extract brewer looking to test my ability to do some all grain brewing. So, let me start off by saying "sorry" if this thread has already been done 100 times already. I'm looking to purchase all grain brewing equipment, but I do not want to do...

I live in New Mexico and there is not one homebrew store in my entire state (as far as I know). I do 100% of my ordering online which means I can shop and sample my homebrews at the same time, but it would be nice to have a real store within driving distance. It would be nice to walk...
