Hello all, I recently bottled an IPA (it smells great btw), and as I was transferring from primary to the bottling bucket, I knocked the hose against the bottom and stirred up a ton of crap. The last time I did this, I kept going and it was a pretty crummy batch. That could have been due to...

I haven't enjoyed the lambics I've tried. I've had a couple of really strong ales that didn't do much for me either.... Bitters, Browns, & Stouts are easiest for me

For a Hefe I suggest Kraftwerk, Neu!, Can, Amon Duul II, DAF, Abwaerts, etc.

Thanks for the help gentlemen. The recipe isn't too complex: 1/2 oz black patent 4 oz crystal malt steeped for 30 mins at *150 then sparged w. a gallon of *170 water 4lbs extra light dme 1/3lb inverse sugar (used honey) 1 oz Williamette hops 1/2 oz Golding hops (for 45...

Hi all, I have a recipe that calls for 1/3 lb of Invert Sugar. The guy at my LHBS suggested using honey instead. Should I use 1/3 lb or a different amount? Thank you for any help you can provide.:mug:

Hello All, Sorry if this has been discussed before, I didn't see a thread. I am brewing a batch of English Pale Ale, but as I was going through my checklist I noticed that the cap to my three-piece cheapo lock is missing. Can I just stick some foil on top and rubber band it on or is the...

Thanks, best laugh I've had all day :)

Hi everyone, I'm currently enjoying my first batch, a brown ale, that has been bottled for about five weeks. After three weeks, I put about half the bottles into the fridge and left them there for a week or so. I would have put them all in but there was no room. So, the other bottles...

Wow, that's a pretty crappy law! 6% is a really low maximum, you are missing out on so many good brews! I hope this passes and you can enjoy a nice RIS or IIPA in celebration.

looks like a list of old school Nintendo codes nearby :)

Thanks Nurmey, I appreciate your feedback

I guess not, but I was just wondering if I totally screwed it up. I know beermaking can be more science than art.

I brewed my second batch on Friday, and I'm a little concerned. I bought a cream ale kit (for SWMBO) but I was disappointed when I saw there were no specialty grains like the last batch. So, I asked the guys at LHBS for advice and here's what the recipe ended up as: 3.3 lb Plain Light...

Map Room & Hop Leaf are both great choices, but neither is downtown.

Thanks everyone

I have a Brewers Best Cream Ale Kit that is just DME and LME. The last kit I made had some specialty grains to add. My LHBS suggested adding a lb of Munich 10L and 1/2lb of Cara Pils to boost it a little bit. Does that sound like a good/bad/meh idea? Any suggestions are appreciated...

everyone on this forum seems to love papyrus font :cross:

I love it! Inspired idea ::applause::

When I first went to Brew in Grow (in Chicago) the woman who assisted me was very pleasant and helpful. However, when I was bottling, my capper broke, and I had to leave town the next day for work. So, my girl went to B&G to get a new capper so she could finish the rest of the bottles and she...
