Greetings, Wondering if anybody uses maltodextrin in a stout. If so, how much? Thanks

Greetings, I just bought an Easydens, was wondering what people use to clean it.

Curious if anybody had a quick way to degas a beer.

I was thinking a way to limit the time dry hops are in the keg is use a hop sack with a fishing line part way down the keg. Wondering if that would interfere with the Clear Draught system (floating dip tube) Obviously too much time on my hands. :)

I'm looking into getting a chest freezer keezer. Was wondering what kind of fan (if any) folks use.

My first attempt at yeast wrangling seems to be working. I put a jar outside, let that ferment for 2 weeks and moved to a 600-700 ml starter. My next plan, was to do a one gallon starter and see how it goes. If all goes well with the gallon starter, should I pitch all the yeast? (I'll do a...

I was thinking about trying a spunding valve. My concern is once I transfer out of the fermenter, I don't have any temperature control. I was thinking, since fermentation is almost complete, perhaps temperature control is no longer needed. Anyone have any thoughts on this?

Greetings, Heading up to Vancouver, BC and would like to get some recommendations of the best breweries there.

Greetings, I was wondering if anyone uses a large pot (15 gal) All the pictures I found on my google were pots almost filled to the top. My water level would be about 8 or 9" from the top. Thanks

Greetings, I'm brewing up a 1.074 and realize I only have one package of 1056. Should I pitch one and see how it goes and then add additional yeast? Or should I throw in some dry yeast with it I have laying around

Greetings, I would like to hear from brewers that have used basil. How much did you use and how did you use it? (i.e. in the boil, whirlpool, keg)

Greetings, I tried a 30 minute boil for the first time. My first wort gravity reading ended up being equal to my gravity at the end of the boil. I did have a low boil off rate (about 6%) Just curious, is this normal for a 30 minute boil? In this case, it didn't matter as I hit my OG.

Greetings, I've been a no sparger forever, because I enjoy the ease. We just got a hot water dispenser that pours 170-180 degree water, so I wouldn't have to heat up anything separate. So my questions are: 1. What water to grain ratio do spargers use? 2. How much sparge water? Thanks

I'm looking to plant some centennial hops, but when looking at the website for Centennial rhizomes it states the following: They grow well in most climates, but NOT wet coastal climates. Has anyone in Seattle had success growing centennial?

I'm an owner of a coop brewery (me and 1700 others) We had a summer ale competition and my beer won. Today is the day it is being released. Very fun experience.

Greetings, As I'm another year older today, I'm looking to buy a pump so I don't have to lift up the brew kettle to pour into the fermenter. My fermenter is pretty high off the ground (4 foot or so) Would a pump have problems with this?

I'm looking to use a fining agent to clear an Irish Red I'll be brewing. I see most folks cold crash in the low 30's. Will fining work in my serving keg that is in the low 40's?

Greetings, I have three pint jars I saved from a batch in late August. How much should I use and what size starter?
