Just thought I'd share my newest score, as I know you guys would appreciate it. I had to buy a replacement for my fermenting fridge 2 days ago as the compressor stopped in the old one. I found an old Whirlpool side-by-side 21 cu/ft fridge in working order on Craigslist for $25, and as luck would...

Custom built 3-tap home brew keezer. Not sure if I want to sell it, but I've recently come down with gout and I prefer being able to walk comfortably, so...I think the time has come to part ways with it (with great reluctance and sadness, I might add). Asking $1000 firm for the whole setup. The...

I have some ingredients hanging around and I was wondering what to do with them, so I'm thinking of brewing a Dopplebock hybrid. (What's the fun if there's no experimentation, eh? ;) ) Anyway, I have 3 lbs. of Pilsen DME, along with some Motueka hops and a Czech Pils yeast, so I figured why not...

Hi all. My name is Adam, and I'm fairly new to home brewing, having only brewed my first batch in January. I'm learning a great deal, but I obviously have a long way to go. I started out with brewing 1 gallon batches from extract kits on my electric stovetop, and have since moved on to an 11...

This beer was originally named Independence Day IIPA. I brewed this on the 4th of July and sourced some of the ingredients for their thematic purpose. During fermentation, unforseen circumstances (plus my appreciation for corny puns) changed the name of this batch. After it had sat in secondary...

So I decided to get a bit ambitious for my first all-grain brew day. The recipe I came up with is a clone of Tripel Karmeliet. It's one of my all-time favorites, and having some on hand at basically ⅛ the cost was a no-brainer. The recipe is as follows: 9 lbs Belgian Pilsner, ¾ lbs malted...

This was my first real success in brewing. I had some issues with consistency of carbonation prior to this, as I had been using Fizz Drops. Lots of flat beers and gushers. This was the first time I had batch primed with dextrose. This was a very simple recipe I just happened to stumble on...
