Hi all So I am one of the lucky people with 6 Perlick 525 taps that are now not sealing properly and looks like there is not much to do about it (Perlick will not help as the model is discontinued). So it looks like I may have to soon invest in 6 new taps. So since I have not bought beer taps...

It will be planted this weekend for sure. I have no way of planting it before unfortunately. I am mostly thinking about whether it should be put in the fridge (has already been out since Saturday) or given moisture.

Hi guys I have a couple of rhizomes which were dug up this past Saturday and placed in big ziplock bags with a good deal of soil added to the bags. I will not be getting around to planting them before this Sunday, will they be fine at room temperature like that or should i put them in the...

Bump, nobody has an input here?

One of my first brew sessions in my new apartment will be an imperial stout of which I plan on brewing a standard stout as partigyle.I plan on adding another kg of 2-row for the 2nd mash, but also want to make sure it keeps the black color, so was thinking about additionally capping it with some...

Ok, any way of calculating how much should be added?

And by the way, will there be any problem with harsh flavors from the extended mash time?

Hi guys (and girls) I am brewing up an imperial stout soon, and I plan on making a lighter stout of the grains afterwards. My question is, will I generally need to add more dark/specialty grains to the 2nd mash in order for it to not turn "brown" or will my roasted barley be good enough for...

Thanks guys. The odd numbers are obviously because I am European and use metric :)

Ok, I am going to brew it as is then and bug each and every one of you if it is not good! :-D

Anybody?

Hi guys I want to brew something up that comes close to Celebration. How does this look to you? http://hopville.com/recipe/1680541 Cheers, Thomas

Yes, when pulling the valve, and no it is only left uncarbed untill there will be room in my kegerator.

Ok, thanks guys! And no problem in the lack of pressure right, as I suspect all oxygen has been purged out? There will not be room in my kegerator for another 2 weeks.

Hi guys Just a quick question. I have a full, uncarbonated keg at room temperature. I apply 20-30 psi of pressure and check for leaks with soapy water. There are none. I then disconnect the gas and when I come back a day later there is only very slight pressure left in the keg. Like a small 1...

Forgot to point a few things out, sorry. Beer will be keg hopped with the 25 g Citra, 1 day is only in there because I had to put something in. And, my setup continuously produces VERY low FGs, which is why I keep the mash temperature this high. If mashed at 150 my system does not give a ****...

Any comments are welcome! http://hopville.com/recipe/1655152

Yeast is mostly availability and not having time to do a starter. I plan on mashing really, really high (say 158 ish) as I am shooting for 1.012 or the likes. Hopville mostly undershoots my final gravities.

Hi guys, I am going to brew up this 70/- soon. Any feedback? http://hopville.com/recipe/1668445 Is the bittering level correct?

Hi guys I am looking to brew a wit with something in the likes of 50% pilsner, 40% flaked wheat and 10% flaked oats, but I am doubting whether it will convert properly without doing a step mash? I have not yet embarked on step mashes. Oh, and what are people's general take on wit grists...
