    Would You Dry Hop?

    I brewed up a recipe I came up with yesterday, using all citra hops. I've never used citra hops before, so I was curious. My recipe is posted below. The grain bill is very simple, hoping to really get the taste of the hops and gain an understanding of them. My question is, if you brewed this...

    Thanks........i think

    So, I've seen some threads on here where people post funny things other people say about beer, displaying the fact that they don't really know anything about beer. Lets get a thread started where you post compliments you've received from others who tried your beer, but it wasn't really a...

    Awesome Hop Strainer

    I know a lot of you throw your hops right in the boil and rack the wort to your primary with residual hop leftovers with no problems at all. I respect that entirely. I also know that stirring your wort vigrously will cause much of your hops to gather at the middle, and thus you are able to...

    Quick Question

    Last night I did my first brew. Today I'm doing another. (Yeah, I'm jumping right in, and quite obsessed). Today, I started with 6 gallons of water, but the water is evaporating REALLY slowly ( I think my home might be humid). Anyways, is it cool if I just pull my bittering hops at 60...

    Thank You Gentlemen

    Just brewed my first batch of beer tonight! Went smoothly, with no trouble at all. A buddy of mine introduced me to homebrewing a year ago, and due to a bad injury, I'm just now getting around to it myself. Just wanted to say thank you to the countless posters on this website. I have learned...
