had a couple pounds of crystal rye sitting around for a while, finally decided to use it today. threw just under 7% into a pale ale/ipa batch today. should get an idea what it brings to the table. anyone else use it?

Does anyone make a thermo well that will fit a corny keg dip tube hole? I searched but couldn't find anything. I think the brewers hardware thermo wells are a little too big to fit the corny. Figured I would check before I go about destroying a stock tube. I ferment in a ten gallon corny...

Just curious to see whatt other home brewers are doing these days. I know a lot of brewers on the forum like the extended primary method, but is anyone racking off the trub just before or just after fermentation is complete? Just for experimentation I racked my last beer out of the primary and...

searched the forums but couldn't find much info, so sorry if this has been asked before. has anyone noticed or tasted a difference between the different maltsters of caramel / crystal malts? I would guess that the muntons would have a place in English beers, and the briess in American ales...

looking for a 10 gallon corny to use as a fermentation vessel. located in Michigan. I know its a long shot to find one of these, but its worth a shot! any help finding one would be great, thanks!

well, wife and I have been brewing for going on three years now, and I would say half have been sub par beers. I need a taster to tell me where to start because we are at a loss to what could be wrong. we are now brewing in a bag with a 10 gallon kettle, blichman burner, plastic buckets, and a...

so a buddy of mine calls me up and asks me if I would be interested in this huge brew kettle of sorts that he found. he sent me a couple pics. I am not sure if its a boil kettle or some sort of mixing tank? it has a couple lines coming out of the bottom of it, not sure if it has a cooling...

question. has anyone used yeastcalc to calculate how much slurry to pitch instead of mr. malty? i normally go with what mr. malty tells me, but after looking at yeastcalc for a bit, it occurred to me that i could harvest all of the yeast out of fermentor, look at yeastcalcs final cell...

brewing up jamils special/premium bitter this week and i have everything but the aromatic malt. heres what i have that might work victory vienna biscuit munich rye red wheat white wheat carapils i did some searching with many different opinions, but i am leaning towards munich. general...

for the last couple of years i have been tossing around the idea of switching from wood heat over to a pellet burner. making wood is becoming a pain in my arse these days and i would like to spend my time doing other things like brewing instead of cutting wood. my other source is propane, and...

ive used biofine in my last few batches with good results, but the biggest bottle i have been able to find is a 4oz. anyone know where i can get a bigger bottle?

Beginning of april i made a 1.5 liter starter on a stirplate to pitch into a cream ale. Before i pitched i cold crashed the starter, decanted, and filled this vial up. Now i would like to make another starter from it, but I'm not sure how many cells are here. 20b? I'm familiar with yeast...

I will be dabbling in some Belgian beer brewing this summer, and am looking to brew a nice session beer based on 3711. Something in the 4-5% abv range. I know this yeast ferments like a beast, so the sg will have to be pretty low, will the beer end up to dry with such a light grain bill? I...

Did some searching, and there aren't a lot of comments on the flavor or aroma of these hops, and the feedback that is there is quite conflicting. I've read peach, iced tea, floral and fuggle like. Im about to tap a cream ale with an ounce of glacier so i guess i will know soon enough, but I'm...

anyone ever brew a hefe with 2 row base malt instead of pilsner malt? how did it turn out, and was there a major difference? thanks!

hey guys, been building some recipes for our last few brews and i am a noob at it, so i always feel it is a good idea to post them up here for critique before i go forward with brewing them. what you think? i will also dry hop with 2 ounces of falconers flight 7 c's. 5.5 gallons 79%...

not much experience creating recipes yet, so i figured i would post this up for review to get some feedback. we have multiple ipa's in the pipeline, but not much for low abv hoppier beers, so a nice sessionable apa with a different hop twist sounded refreshing. hoping to pick up some tropical...

was thinking of brewing up another hefe soon, but in my freezer full of hops there are none of the noble variety. Anyone ever have success using citra, glacier, etc? Think it would change the flavor much if they were just used as 60 minute bittering additions?

Looking for some quality silicone o rings for the gas and liquid keg posts. Might as well get the ones for the dip tubes too. Anyone have a link to purchase these? The rings that kegconnection sent with their kegs are definitely not the right ones. Got a freezer full of beer to prove it, not...
