    Correct term for female brewer?

    This is quite correct, it was the term for a couple century in England, prior to men taking over the trade and commercializing it beyond the local area.

    Medieval Ale- Discussion and Experiences

    In regards to the book Ale, Beer and Brewsters mentioned earlier in the thread, I own this book and actually wrote an essay on it back in college. Despite its enticing title, its a terribly dry read with less than a chapter on actual brewing; the rest of the book is simply the publication of...

    Can I ginger up my kit brew?

    I have done this a number of times, first time with about 6oz of ginger simmered in honey for 15 minutes, added at 45 minutes into a 60 min boil. Last time, i followed https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f12/ginger-cream-braggot-138002/ almost, but using a northern brewer blonde kit and no honey. Just...

    Multimeter suggestions

    http://www.elexp.com/tst_x310.htm I have the EX330, cheap, does everything I need for micro-controllers and around the house, including finding circuits in the wall. Not as legendary as a fluke, but a third of the price.

    Your Source of Bottles?

    I have a party and buy a couple cases of cheap kirkland beer... people love it and i get easily de-labeled bottles with a decent shape and no imprinting in the glass. Only thing is people seem to love it more when I let them drink my beer... have to get my bottles somehow though, nothing like...

    Would Starsan do anything for my "friends" shoes?

    I have used it on rock climbing shoes... No socks, tons of sweat == nasty. No luck. Didn't hurt them, but didn't help either.

    When should I add cherry extract?

    To be honest, it was the second 5 gal batch I bottled that night, was a little sloppy, didn't taste it before bottling. I just dumped all 4oz in. Like I sad before, its getting much better, even in this short amount of time. The taste was quite medicinal at first, now its a bit more mellow...

    When should I add cherry extract?

    Amusingly enough, after typing that I cracked another bottle... just to make sure. 3 days after my initial tasting it has improved quite a bit. That might be because I tried it after a handful of other refreshing adult beverages (I know, I know sub-par tasting environment), but this one is...

    When should I add cherry extract?

    I just made this kit, added it at bottling with the priming sugar. Poured the extract in the bottom and racked onto it, pretty well mixed I believe due to the whirlpool effect. Just went for it and added all 4 oz, 2 weeks after bottling its still a little rough, kind of medicinal tasting...
