Any suggestions for a partial mash bottled Irish Cream Ale for a guy who's a little out of practice? I've been researching how to do an Irish Cream Ale, like Kilkenny's...it's been like four years since I last brewed. I don't have the space for an all-grain version. Nor do I have the...

Thanks for the encouragement. I'll keep it around for a while, just to be sure... Should I put it in the fridge to wait for improvement? Since temps stay in the 75-80 range even in winter in Florida, would the fridge approach slow me down too much?

Only changes I made to the recipe were the honey and the vanilla bean. I plan to make no changes to the caramel cream ale recipe. Oddly enough, I tasted it one day after bottling, and it was different... I also mixed it with some bud light I had laying around, and even stranger, the mix...

I want to get a secondary, to have two batches going at once, and I'd like to try mead making, something I wanted to try since before I ever tried beer... But I've had problems with temperature. It's nearly impossible to keep my temperatures down in South Florida. I'm thinking of building...

Is this normal? I mean, put it in the fermenter almost two weeks ago, and I was about to check the gravity, so I'll know in two days if it's ready to bottle. Instead, I moved it to where I could work with it, and when I put it down, it was bubbling again. I'm pretty sure it had stopped at...
