    Pitching rate for small batches?

    I've searched a bit on this and didn't really come up with much. I guess I'm going to have to upgrade my membership to get the advanced search functionality. In the meantime, for those of you that do small test batches, how are you coming up with pitching rates? I have Beer Smith, and what...

    Tap A Draft bottles for small fermenter?

    I have aquired 12 TAD bottles and I'll never use them all for serving beer. I was curious about using them to ferment small 1 gallon test batches. Does anyone see an issue with this? The only one I could really think of is that they are fairly dark and hard to see into so racking would have...

    Software to Manage Ingredients???

    I would like to enter in my recipes and find the common ingredients between them to make things easier when it comes to ordering bulk ingredients. I was thinking about creating a spreadsheet, but would rather use brewing software if I can. Does anyone know of a brewing software that can do this?

    New Design Tap-A-Draft vs Miller/Coors Home Draft?

    Has anyone compared the new style TAD tap with the Miller or Coors Home Draft tap to see what the differences are? I am mainly concerned with the durability comparison. I acquired a Coors Light version and would like to pick up a few more bottles and another tap, but if there aren't any big...

    My first home brew on my birthday...life is good

    So, today is my birthday and I thought I'd celebrate it by drinking my first bottle of beer that I made myself. The beer is Third Date IPA from Brewmasters Warehouse.

    "No Refill" Bottles - Can I use them?

    I am getting ready to bottle my first brew and have been soaking bottles to remove labels. As I was putting some on the drying rack today, I noticed some of the bottles had "No Refill" cast into them around the very bottom. I'm not sure exactly what brewery these came from because the labels...

    3 Floyds Pride & Joy(ish) ***Noob Attempt***

    I need a few thoughts or opinions. This is my second ever brew and I decided I was going to experiment a little...after all, necessity is the mother of invention. I want to try to do something similar to 3 Floyds Pride and Joy. I'm a big fan of IPA's and tasty session beers and want to try to...

    IPA Hop Schedule Noob Question

    I'm preparing to brew my first batch of homebrew and seeing that I'm a big fan of IPA's I wanted to try that first. I really like the hoppy/citrus flavor and aroma of Bell's Two Hearted and found a clone recipe that I want to give a go. One thing I don't really understand is the hop schedule...
