    Colorado Tons of brew gear

    Nobody wanted the whole lot so it's time to part it out. I _REALLY_ don't want to ship this stuff but if you are willing to pay for it then I can give it a shot. - Spare un-cut keg (not pictured): $40 - Pot for heating up your sparge water (looks to be about 4-5 gallons): $10 - Counter flow...

    re-pitch on old yeast and bugs?

    I had a sour experiment that didn't work out well due to the wort (really poor 2nd runnings from another beer) that was fermented with us-04 and then had dregs from various wild beers poured into it. I've read that it's fine to re-pitch on some of the wild/sour blends you can buy from wyeast and...

    Cider won't start?

    So I'm stuck here, I have a cider that just won't start fermenting and was hoping the experts might have some ideas :). I previously made a 1 gallon batch that turned out great so I stepped it up to 4 gallons. About a week ago I pitched the packet of S-04 but after a few days nothing was...

    Castle Rock water?

    Have another thread going about trying to figure out some beer issues and one of the things that has come up is my water profile. I figured before I went to the city I'd see if anyone in the Castle Rock area already had the water profile for our town and if they'd be willing to share it :mug:

    Causes for no maltiness?

    I've been searching around and haven't found anything really that I think can help me with my issue. Last week was probably my 8 or 9th all grain batch but during this time I've run into an issue that is starting to bother me. Every couple of batches turn out lacking "backbone", they taste like...

    mess of parts e-herms build help?

    So I'm not an electrical guy at all which is why I'm posting here :) I'd like to put together a budget e-herms build so I can brew in the basement year round. I have most of the "hardware" side figured out (most of which I already own) but have not been able to put together a solid idea on how...

    IPA recipe to clear out my old hops

    So this is the first recipe I've made from scratch but the goal is to try and clear out some stockpiled simcoe and cascade I got awhile back. I figured I'd try and make an IPA, any thoughts or suggestions are welcome. I kind of just searched around the IPA recipe section and looked at some...

    Re-occurring carbonation issues

    This forum has helped me a ton so I'm hoping it'll come through again :) I've recently just completed my 4th all grain batch and it's been in the bottles for about 7 days now. I opened up a tester today (hear me out haha) and got the sound of carbonation but when I poured it the beer was...

    Recipe critique, small batch RIS

    So first off,my plan is to brew this as a small test batch via the BIAB method. I basically took the Double-W recipe from here, scaled it down and tweaked it a tad. I'd like to stop by the LHBS this weekend and get all the stuff so I'd appreciate any comments/suggestions (outside of increase...

    BIAB + big beers?

    So I just completed my 3rd 5 gallon all grain batch and am looking at doing some smaller sized experimental batches. I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work fine, but will the BIAB method work ok with bigger beers like an RIS or barleywine? I was planning on using a full thing of dry yeast...

    First brew session done!

    So tonight was not only my first non mr. beer brew, but my first all grain brew as well. I went with EdWort's haus pale ale. No major issues aside from I obviously messed up some readings because my efficiency came out over 100% :drunk: and my CFC had a tiny leak on the water side. BeerSmith...

    Any HBT members planning on going to this: http://www.denverbrewfest.com/winter/index.php We've been to the summer one previously, looks like the winter one will basically be the same thing but I'm not sure.

    Another newbie from CO

    Just another new brewer from Colorado :rockin:. Found this site about a month ago and have spent a ton of time just reading everything. Sadly I ended up with a Mr. Beer instead of a "real" kit for Christmas so I'm trying to make the best of it. In the meantime I've been scrounging around trying...
