    Problem - Peach smell

    I havent posted in a while, but here goes.. I brewed a (dang good) stout based off Tuck's recipe. I made a dumb mistake and didnt prime the first 12 or so bottles. So I primed the majority the right way, finished my bottles, then dumped the 12 bottles back into the bucket, primed it, then...

The cheapest I've found a 40 quart SS stock pot for is right around 200 dollars. The following links, although I believe them to be intended for "Craw Dads", look like...

    Commercial Brewing School

    Havent posted in quite a while. I've had a new job that keeps me traveling around the world (in the middle east at the moment). I'm interested in checking out a commercial brewing school. Has anyone attended or researched brew schools in the past? If one were to apply to a microbrewery or...

    DME... why hast thou forsaken me?

    So today I jumped on the band wagon and brewed Cheesefood's Caramel Cream Ale. I've only used LME thus far. I decided against going with my LHBS's LME and stick to the recipe with some brewer's gold DME and some Munton's Wheat DME (Oddly [luckily?], these were the only two DME my LBHS had in...
