I searched but could not find a solution so far. I brewed a brown ale for my sons wedding in early September. It will finish at the end of June and I was going to keg and start a slow carbonation cycle. My questions are is this too long for beer to sit carbed for a couple of months? Should I...

Hello all, I am trying to brew the Dogfish beer and want to get some advice on the brew schedule. All I could find on-line was the recipe below which I want to do all grain. I am hoping the idea is to add the adjuncts after the fermentation starts. I am going to use Lavender; bay leaf; and...

I have had several times my beer ran on my floor from being left open overnight. I typically blamed my aunt son for being careless and not pushing the tap back in place. It has happened three times in a couple of months and now I am wondering if I have something wrong with my tap. I have what...

I brewed a stout last weekend and frustrated with myself with the results. I took a sample today for a gravity reading and the beer is very light in color, medium brown. I have been brewing off and on for a while but I am getting the feeling to need to dial in my process. After being a...

I have a burner and a 14 gallon fermenator. Would like to get the leg extensions if you are not using them. I can send the regular legs if you need them. Thank you

Hello I brewed a 13 gallon batch with about 26lbs (Marris Otter and wheat and specialty grains) of grain to make a stout. Mashed at 155 for an hour and sparged at 163. Used a White labs british ale yeast in a one liter starter. Fast primary fermentation for about 5 days. The OG was 1.048, I...

I am starting to keg my beer but want to take some to parties. I have several 5 gl kegs. Is it possible to put 2.5 gl in a 5 gl keg? Will it carb properly? I am thinking of buying a 2.5 gl keg soon but wanted to be sure. Thank you

I have been brewing today with a newish 20 gl blichmann with the mash screen. I double crush my grains. I Lautered two quarts and then started filling my boil kettle. I noticed a fair amount of small pieces of grain probably husks. What will this do to my beer? I am going to be more vigilant...

Oatmeal Stout This post is to solicit some thoughts on what I should improve. I was going for a medium beer with a smooth oatmeal flavor with a heavier body. I am not sure where I got the recipe but brewed this in the past with decent results. Ingredients: 10lbs 2 Row, 1.50 lb Quick Flaked...

I live in the Bmore DC area and can meet on the beltways. I'm looking to sell my Blichmann Fermenator 7 gallon conical fermenter with standard (threaded fittings). This is the standard bare-bones model without casters, leg extensions, blowoff assembly, or triclamp fittings. It will come with...

I have a 7 gl blichmann fermentor that is a few years old. Someone put my pipes and fittings inside for storage and upon carrying this fermentor around the inside got scratched. The scratches are not very deep but I can feel them with my finger. Is there a DIY procedure for smoothing these out...

Thought someone would be inspried by this. http://baltimore.craigslist.org/bfs/3800317493.html

I have been brewing for a while but this is a new problem to me. I know airlock activity does not indicate fermentation but I am now on day 16 since boiling and there is still some activity. I used wlp005 yeast on a 1.062 ipa at 66 degrees in the conical and it started right away. The reading...

Sold Thank you I have a Miller Brewing Company keg that has been converted to a keggle. It is in great shape a good candidate for polishing. There are two holes; one for a valve; and another near the top. The top is cut out (no lid) about 12-14". I bought this and have decided not to go with...

I have an issue recently with too much foaming on my darker beers. I bottle from a conical so I drop in 1/4 teaspoon of sugar into the bottle. About 50 batches and no problem uintil recently. Now there is foam bubbling out when we open a bottle. The beer tastes fine, just like the other...

I swear dad this is what happened to our house this weekend. I don't know how they got in and your Grey Goose is gone too:tank: http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/sideshow/family-four-bears-breaks-cabin-drink-100-beers-181034427.html

I primaried an IPA for 30 days and transferred to a 5 gallon ball lock keg about a month ago. The party has been pushed back another 3 weeks. Is storing home brew at room temp (high 60s) OK for about two months?:drunk:

Just a feeler if there is an interest to trade my used 10 gallon Blichmann for 15 gallon Boilermaker. Shipping would probably make the deal unreasonable so local deals (I drive) would be better. This pot is used with a sparge attachment at the top with a drilled hole.

I bought the grains and pump; very nice guy. http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/mld/for/2836055140.html
