    Grains to keep on hand?

    Hey all, I recently upgraded equipment and moved from doing extract only kits to all grain recipes. So far I’ve just been purchasing the grains I need for recipes as needed, but I’d like to get some storage containers and start storing and milling my own grains to be able to experiment with...

    SiC Rollers for grain mill?

    Hi guys and gals, I'm trying to make a rice polisher for brewing sake and am now thinking that if I set the gap at its highest, my grain mill could possibly work. Rice polishing usually passes a spinning silicone carbide grinding wheel. Does anyone know if it's possible to get SiC rollers to...

    Grains to get - New to All Grain Brewing

    Vittles Vault

    On recommendation of a friend, I picked up a Vittles Vault yesterday for my grain storage. Looks like a really great way to store grain in an air-tight, pest-free way. When I returned home and opened it to pour in the grain, I noticed quite a powerful odor...assumably a by-product of the...

    Between Brews: Mounting and Motorizing Your Grain Mill

    I really, really like my Monster Mill 3+. It is a little heavy to carry around, though, and it feels unstable when sitting on a bucket with a heavy drill motor hanging off the side. I knew that I wanted to make a permanent mounting with a fixed drive for it. That meant that I had to select a...

    Grape to Grain: A Winemaker's Transition To Home Brewing

    About a year and a half ago, I stumbled on an article on the Flanders Red beer style. A Flanders Red is aged in oak barrels for years, giving it acidity and a Burgundian complexity which has been described as the most wine-like of all beers. I was intrigued by this concept, so I drove to my...

    Simple Homebrewing Techniques

    So far in my homebrewing journey, I have explored the three simplest levels of homebrewing. All have used malt extracts rather than mashed grains (mashing is the process of converting the starch in the grains to sugars). "Malt extract" is wort (unfermented beer) from grain that has already been...

    Recipe Numbers Not Adding Up: 5 Common Causes

    Ever find a great looking recipe - on a website, in a book, or elsewhere plug it into your brewing software - and the numbers just don't add up? I'm specifically talking about the IBUs and the specific gravity. It can be frustrating! Here are the main reasons why that happens: (Note: I've...

    Choosing Grain in a Prohibition Country

    Hello all, I'm a bit overwhelmed trying to source some grains in Saudi Arabia. I am a first time brewer, and I understand that this will be an uphill battle given my location and lack of experience, but I have had fair luck with sourcing brewing supplies so far. Everything is sorted except for...

    Partial grain partial extract brew

    I was hoping to do a little bit of my own flavoring by using some grain in a BIAB, but then adding a DME or LME to get me a higher OG than what I can get using grains without a mash tun. 5 gallon kettle so not near big enough for a full boil. A couple of questions: 1. Is there anything I...

    Any opinions on the looks of the grain crush?

    Hello all. I could not find a current thread on this so forgive me if this an errant new post. I have a monster mill 3 (not pro) using a low rpm 2" drill- i can vary the rpm. I try to keep it around 160-200 rpm (by sound/look- nothing scientific). I do brew in a bag (using an arbor fab 600...

    Is this grain okay for creating a Malt with?

    I'm trying to save money by creating my own malt. I've read online that animal feed should be O.K for brewing. Unfortunately I won't be able to inspect this grain before purchasing. But assuming the quality is okay, will this work for creating a malt? It's about $40 less then buying the same...
