    Anise or Licorice Root?

    Which creates a stronger "traditional Licorice" flavor? I am doing a root beer for my kids; we did this recipe already https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=210057 and I loved it but the licorice flavor was a bit too much for my daughter. I want to do the same again (as I still have...

    Maryland 19 inch Stainless drip tray for sale

    Looking to sell a SS drip tray, no drain; I believe it is from beverage factory but I am not positive (purchased it used myself) It is in perfect shape; I cleaned it but don't use it as it is too large for what I need. Size is 19.25 inches by 4 inches. Looking to get $40 for it, negotiable.

    District of Columbia Free Bottles to a good home

    I've moved to kegging recently, and now have about 7-8 cases of bottles free to whoever would like them. I live in Southern Maryland, but work in Rosslyn VA so I can meet you anywhere in the DC area if you'd like them. Most bottles are washed and de-labeled, some are just rinsed well and...

    Keezer Build: Working on a Purchase List

    Is there one already made? I looked through several other information threads so far and got a lot of great info on how to set up, balance, etc but nothing on what you actually have to buy to build a keezer? I'd love some help on figuring out what exactly I need to be purchasing; so far I've...

    Any fans of sour beer in the DC area?

    OK, So I brewed a Kolsch in late June. Fermented nicely, racked it to a secondary to let it age and clean up a bit. Unfortunately time got the best of me and I couldn't get around to bottling when i wanted. I figured it was well sealed so it should be fine. Now, after bottling and a...

    How long will refrigerated yeast last?

    I was preparing to brew and made my starter; ran out of time and put the ready starter in the fridge until the next weekend. Now, due to way too many unforseen circumstances... :( It's been in there for over a month now. Is this yeast still viable if I make a new starter? How long will...

    Cream Ales

    Hey all; I am planning my 3rd brew soon; and I was thinking of a cream ale. My wife didn't care for the Wheat beer I did first (it was good; but not great, Hop flavor/aroma was a bit strong for a wheat beer and the color was off); so I want to do something I think she'll enjoy; you know...

    Hi all; a couple Noob questions...

    Greetings! I am pretty new to the homebrewing life, as I've brewed only 1 beer so far (and haven't even drunk it yet... Still bottle conditioning). A friend of mine is interested in getting into homebrewing as well; so I told him to get an extract kit and we'd brew it up. He chose this kit...

    My first label

    Got an American Wheat kit with my brewing kit this Christmas so I was playing around with label ideas and wanted some opinions on this one. I was trying to give it that "Standard Issue" Military type feel, hope you like it (but be honest either way :D ) :mug:

    How common are bottle bombs?

    I just bottled my first batch, an american wheat kit from NB, and I wanted to store it in a closet by our water heater. This area is under the stairs and out of the way; and stays room temp or slightly warmer so it should be good for the carbonating fermentation. However, it is also our coat...
