    Astringency after several weeks

    Shoots, I don't even know what an astringent flavor is. Some judges had said some of my dark beers have it to some degree.

    Strawberry Guavas

    I have access to a large amount of Strawberry Guava's in the field (Psidium cattleyanum). It's gonna take weeks to gather enough to ferment. Can I just juice them as gather them and put the juice in Mason Jars and then put the jar in 160* water to kill any wild yeast? Then when I have enough...

    Hard Cider vs Beer

    I've heard the same for hard root beer. Pasteurize to stop fermentation and bottle bombs.

    Hard Cider vs Beer

    So I've read that Hard and Soft Cider need to be pasteurized to stop bottle bombs. Why don't I have that problem when making ale?
