They sell powdered peanut butter at my LHBS. The consistency is like powdered sugar. Just add it to the boil at 5min left. I haven't done anything with it. Just a tip!

Well I racked it and shared it with some buddies. One of them said it has the aftertaste of apple juice. I'm going to guess this is Acetaldehyde. After almost 2 months, I would consider this a proper amount of "conditioning time", but it was in the primary the whole time. Just thought I...

I know there's several posts on this subject, however I'm just trying to figure out if I should dump this batch or not. Long story short, I brewed up an irish red ale while I was living with my girlfriend. We broke up, I abandonded my primary fermenter for 2 months, I come back later to keg...

Thanks, guys! I did a batch last night with 4 gallons of apple cider, 4 pounds of brown sugar with an OG of 1.08. Any idea what to final gravity will be when it ferments completely using Nottingham yeast?

Ok here is my dilemma. I made several cider batches and cold crashed at the desired FG, sometimes back sweetened, kegged, and served. This time I want to bottle 10 gallons of cider in wine bottles. What would be the best way to achieve this? I want the abv to be around 8% semi sweet and no...

I brewed this batch a couple weeks ago, but not using those exact measurements. I will let you know in a few more weeks!

So I'm brainstorming my next couple batches of beer to be ready for early summer. I have a belgian wit infused with grapefruit/orange zest and corriander ready to be bottled next weekend. I'm piecing together a honey lemon weiss recipe. Let me know what you guys think! 5# Wheat LME 1#...

Thanks everyone! I'm thinking I may just add enough cranberry juice to my already fermented apple cider so that it's noticeable, but not dilute it. Next year I may try fermenting a mix of cranberry and apple cider. I may even try and get my hands on some fresh cranberries for a 1 gallon...

I have been experimenting with a cranberry / cider blend for Thanksgiving. I had much success with fermenting apple cider with different added fermentables; brown sugar, honey, malt extract, cane sugar. Question: What's a good yeast for fermenting cranberry juice. I used a Lavlin Champagne...
