    Hofbräuhaus Original Clone

    I know this thread is Old with a capital O, but it's the closest to the topic I have some info on. I recently discovered Hofbrau Original, by recommendation of another shopper in the beer aisle. I like the bottle size, and have been keeping and de-labeling them. On a whim I went to their...

    Beer buzz: Storebought vs Homebrew

    I was thinking about this issue again last night and I thought I'd find this thread and see what wisdom had been appended. I was setting up my cold crash bucket and drank some pints of unfiltered, uncarbonated. Definitely a different, slower to kick in buzz, so I'm going to go out on a limb...

    Cold crash killed my yeast

    Ah, I love you guys. This is EXACTLY the issue that made me sign in for the first time in months to research. I've been burning my wallet up with storebought Pizza Port Mongo, so we finally re-opened the brewing pipeline this weekend. We want to rinse-and-repeat with our yeast to keep costs...

    Bigger yesat started = shorter primary?

    Researching the limits of this right now...I have a batch of yeast I've been rinsing and reusing every week - it's going into it's eighth run today. By conservative estimate I have a quart of yeast which I am adding to a starter. I realize that there has to be some dead yeast and hops trub in...

    Frozen yeast

    Well, I never taste mine but I guess I'll have to begin so I can get a baseline. I just tried mine and it tasted beerlike, so I guess I'll plow ahead.

    Frozen yeast

    Thanks all - this thread indirectly answers the question I'm searching this afternoon - I just cold crashed five gallons in the freezer of Katherine Kegerator (Big Kate to her friends), my 25 year old Kenmore frig / freezer. She can make a five gallon batch of 10% ale into a beersicle in 24...

    Hop Bursting + Late malt extract = 30 min beer? Please provide advice

    Without any math to support the theory I still like it - thanks for your reply.

    Air bubbles in siphon tube

    I have some new hose and tube, and last brew day I noted that the tube was a little undersize (or the hose a little oversize) and I could not achieve a leak free fit. I think rather than add hose clamps to the mix, therefore adding a potentially sharp surface to my equipment handling routine, I...

    And here's another one I found today - I've always wondered if we are as yeast cells to some god somewhere. http://chuckleaduck.com/comic/sur-li/?pw-ab=51408

    Clear beer towards end of keg?

    Also, the entire first keg is probably clear by now. You just can't tell because you drank it already.

    **Help** Out quick connect is leaking by

    Perhaps the problem could have something to do with the poppet always being depressed. Depression: It's nothing to laugh about.

    Advice from hop heads please

    Sounds great, I'm curious about the orange peel. I think [cram] has a good point about keeping it a single hop effort, although hopheaded fool that I am I would throw it all in. Please let us know how the orange peel works out.

    I think they're hot, but you probably don't

    I think you guys are just listing girls that are hot. And you're all right. I thought this was supposed to be a thread about girls that might not be universally perceived as hot. Like Pippi Longstocking. Not that I mind - it's a good excuse to google image search and go "Oh, of course...

    Reminds me of a tomato-walnut ice cream I used to make.

    sour cherry ale

    Oh, man, that sounds good. I've had some great cherry ales before. You'll find the fruit flavors fade over time. You may wish to add some more in the secondary. Now you've made me want to brew cherry ale.
