Yes. Not too late. I used 2 cans of pumpkin in the mash and one during the last 15 minutes of the boil. Turned out amazing and delicious. Primary took about 2 weeks and about 4 days secondary. I used Bio Fine clear in secondary and kegged after the 4 days. Was drinking pumpkin beer in less than...

Just throw a can of pumpkin in during the last 15 minutes of the boil.

Yes. Biofine Clear is amazing. Im drinking a 6 day old grain to glass Amber.

All grain- 6 days grain to glass. It is an Amber ale with a 60 and 1 minute hop additions. Not going to go into the process but I did use Biofine Clear and an 8 hour cold crash in my freezer. Drinking it now and it is awesome.

You add honey about 10-15 towards the end of the boil. This pasteurizes it yet you maintain the aroma of the honey.

I am not a patient person. And if you are one of those people that can wait 2 months to try your brew then you are a better man than me. Some styles of beer certainly take longer to mature but I generally pick beers in the 1.050 range and will be drinking clear delicious brew in 2-3 weeks. I...

I would by 3 smack packs and pitch. According to their FAQ this is acceptable. Im all about keeping it simple even though it costs me a bit more money at times. Cheers!

I recently ordered some of this from Midwest supplies. I havent used it yet but I will soon. They have discussed this on the BN and supposedly it is great. I'll let you know how it works.

I remember feeling like I got my a** kicked after my first all grain batch. Think it was a combination of the sun beating down and my Banjo burner that did it. Good times though...

I experienced this same metallic taste. For me it was my beer line that needed to be cleaned. All i did was run some star san through it...Worked for me.

Try the Williams brewing website. They have a good selection of odds and ends.

I put the freshly racked keg in my freezer for a couple hours. Set at about 25 psi. Force carb for a couple minutes. Put back in freezer set to serving psi and wait a couple hours or serve the next day. I DO NOT have the patience to put it at serving pressure and wait 2 weeks. Who the hell wants...

These guys are AWESOME!!. they are busy folks but they have superb customer service. They have excellent communication as well. I had to change my order and I received a phone call within 24 hours and they hooked me up. If it's wrong, they make it right. They are the way to go...

I'm with you. Same here.

I know what you mean. I just brewed an English Pale today and I'm already seeing bubbles (Nottingham yeast). Really though dude. 4 weeks in primary is a long time. You're not going to hurt anything but damn....you must be one patient person. Wish I had that in me...unless you are skipping...

Take readings, dude. If it's the same 2-3 days in a row it is done fermenting and any additional time will contribute to flavor/clarity and maybe some other scientific things that you probably dont need to worry about etc. I primary for 10 days to 2 weeks then secondary for 1-2 depending in...

I've brewed only 4 batches and I worried about the first but I'm over it now. I trust my procedures and ability ti follow instructions. All my beer has turned out delicious. As you progress you'll find tools, tricks and good info here. Just relax and have a home brew. Reading the joy of home...

What temp are you shooting for? I would go for the cooler temps to ferment. It's easy to put a heat pad underneath or a brew belt on if you need to increase fermentation temps.

I enjoy extract brewing. I don't have a whole lot of spare time and this method works the best for me. Oh, and the beer is delicious!! I may attempt PM or AG one day. Not because I want to pretend I am better than anyone else (like some ******** on here), but for a greater challenge. I would...

I have no idea what you are talking about. Relax and have a home brew.
