    Alternative Sugar Beer English Pale Ale w/Honey - Gold Medal 2020 IBU Open

    Thanks for sharing! I've have a pound of my coworker's homemade honey sitting around waiting for a good recipe. I think this might be the one.

    Help Needed Designing Experimental Beer

    I've entered a friendly competition where each participant is randomly assigned the ingredients they can use. While I have to stick to these, they can be used in any amount. Here is what I was assigned: Briess 2 Row Briess Malted Rye Munton's Crystal 60 D90 Candi Syrup Palisade Hops Edible...

    Beer with most easily removed labels

    The other day I soaked a bunch of 312 bottles in OxiClean and the labels took themselves off in about 5 minutes.

    Regulator destabilizes CO2 cylinder

    I want to take my 5 lb. CO2 cylinder and a keg with me when I share my homebrew at the office. The problem is, the regulator causes the CO2 cylinder to tip over if it is not propped up by something. Are there any good DIY or commercial stands to hold it up so I can just set it next to the keg?

    Thanks for the advice. I'm going to age this for a while and see if the flavor changes.

    Beer tastes like DME

    Does anyone see a problem with re-boiling the beer and pitching another packet of yeast? I'm thinking this might break down the DME that the yeast was having trouble eating.

    How many servings from one pressurization?

    Sorry if this is a repeat question but I looked everywhere. I am thinking about getting a 2.5 gallon Corny keg to bring into work on Fridays. I have a CO2 cylinder, but it would be nice if I didn't have to bring it with me. I have thought about the little CO2 chargers, but I want to know...

    Beer tastes like DME

    Yeah I was going to boil it, but when I bought the DME at my LHBS, the guy recommended just putting it straight in. In the end, there wasn't much sitting at the bottom of the fermenter though, so it seems like it was eaten up. The fermentation went strong for a long time too, the airlock was...

    Beer tastes like DME

    The hops were: 3 oz Columbus (10%) for 60 minutes 3 oz Nugget (12%) for 30 minutes 1 oz Columbus (10%) for 15 minutes It should have been about 106 IBUs. I did not boil the DME, I just added it straight to the fermenter.

    Beer tastes like DME

    A few months ago, I tried to make John Palmer's Fightin' Urak-Hai Barleywine. My mash was apparently incredibly inefficient, and I only got an OG of ~1.050 instead of the expected ~1.100. In a desperate attempt to fix the gravity, I added 5 pounds of amber DME, which I couldn't add until the...
