The summer moved to fast and now I have an All grain NB Speckled Heifer unbrewed in my fridge. I'm thinking about splitting it into two 2.5 gallon batches or 5 1 gallon batches and add different flavorings. I believe the recipe is a creamy, light tasting ale. I have a bucket full of Jalapenos...

I never get tired of these 2 moments in this hobby The day after brew day and you see bubbles. The moment your beer has hit the aged time in the keg. Carbonated just right, nice malt and hop balance, clear and you are proud of the product you just made. The 2nd moment just happened...

I was mashing in this morning, eating my egg sandwich with one of my last bottles of amerillo pale ale. I was thinking an egg sandwich may be the best sandwich ever. Anybody else love egg sandwiches. There are so many different ways to make an egg sandwich. You could eat a different type...

Ok. After a spring and summer long experiment of SMaSHes. I have figured out what my and SWMBO taste buds can agree on for a house pale ale. So I am spending the winter fine tuning my first recipe. Advice please Likes: Malts The clean and crispness of Golden Promise The biscuity...

I'm trying to build my winter stock after moving. Looking for direction on either the AHS or NB Bourbon Porter Recipe. I am going to split the batch at secondary and try two different bourbons. I have Knob Creek as a house warming gift so that is one of them. Both recipes suggest...

Placed an order with BMW on Wednesday. Received this email yesterday. We are currently experiencing a delay with a shipment of supplies. This has caused us to be very backed up with the processing and shipping of orders. We appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding. We are doing...

I'll be moving back to the upstate from the low country in the April May time frame and looking for a little advice. I have 3 cascade crowns that I am getting ready to cut for the "winter". I think I will go ahead and pot them now for the move. When do you see new growth from your hops in...

Once dry yeast is open it cant be stored. I dont like throwing away half a pack of dry yeast when doing small experimental batches. debating about making a starter with extra yeast and saving for next experiemental batch and save money. Should i make the starter at a higher gravity? any...

Just curious. If you continue to pitch a yeast strain cake on different styles of beers will it keep its unique characteristics or mutate into a common strain? I have a mild fermenting on White labs english ale WLP0002 I can use the cake in two ways. Continue to pictch on it with brews...

Taking a stab at my first clone beer. Our local brewer makes a Kolsch that people like but a little on expensive side. Thought I would brew a couple of 2.5 gallon batches to find a good clone for summer. Here is the description from Coast website Our take on a kolsch style ale that is...

I picked up another chest freezer at garage sale this weekend. I am wondering if there is a way to run one temp control unit for both freezers. This will allow me to catch up and keep a pipeline of beer since I can have multiple batches fermenting. The freezer was $10 and I can't see buying...

In today's WSJ there is an article on the rise of gruit. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10000872396390444897304578044733005355570.html?KEYWORDS=gruit Looks interesting but wanted to see what other people's experience and opinion is on brewing Gruit. I have searched HBT and read some of...

Hey all, I like to keep three kegs of beer styles in the fridge. 1. A style I really like that my wife doesn't like (IPA, Stouts, Porter) 2. A style she really likes I can do without (Wheat, Blonde Ales) 3. One we agree on. Brown Ale Need other styles We are bored with the brown...

I have always felt my friends have had my beers to be nice. But I knew I made a good beer when my friends came over and passed up the Sierra Nevada and Sweet Waters and said do you have any of the SMaSH beer left. I made a simple MO/Simcoe pale ale and they wanted more. I am now a proud...

I am ready to bottle my MO/Simcoe smash. I made a test batch of 1 gallon. The calculators say .9 oz of sugar for carbonation. Do I still use a pint of water to dissolve sugar or less water? If less water, what is the ratio? Thanks.

The Viking IPA from Austin is at a very attractive price on the website. Has any body made it before? Can S05 substituted for the Wyeast Greenbelt? Trying to ship liquid yeast to Charleston, SC is not going to happen in the summer.

Charleston, SC didn't have a winter this year and hops started growing early. I am a first year growing but have tested a couple of cascade hops. The hop cone leaves are getting a faint brown on tips. They are somewhat papery and go back to form on the squeeze test but when I cut one in...
