Hi everyone! My wife recently has gone gluten free and loves IPAs, so I'm planning my first gluten free one after combing through this forum awhile. I've been brewing all grain for a long time, but decided to try at least one extract here first as I dip into GF. My plan is roughly 70/20/10 mix...

I've seen a lot of people detail using the orange carboy caps with co2 hooked up on one piece and then a siphon coming out the other which goes to liquid post of a keg, and then just pull the relief valve on the keg for filling. I've hooked it all up but I can't quite the beer to start...

I've done a lot of looking into 100% primary with brett dirty dozen and haven't seen a ton so I'll document brewing this and how it turns out. Going to brew Sunday, have a 1.5L starter going with dirty dozen dated 1/31/16, also tossed in some dregs from smuttynose smut labs daily brett. I got a...

I've read a ton of debate between pitching a starter at high krausen or letting it finish out then cold crashing the night before or whenever and decanting. I'm wondering - because I am using the Brulosophy method of yeast harvesting which I'll do and crash tonight and pitch it tomorrow - my...

I imagine this will just end up being a trial/error solution, but I thought I'd see if anyone had some thoughts/intel on this issue. I just recently put together a cooler HLT with a controller electric heater (love it btw, highly suggested!) Generally I heat the water up around 163-168...

I'm pitching a cider tomorrow with Wyeast 3711 and plan on leaving it for 5-6 months. I'd like to give dry hopping a shot as well, any recommendations on when to do that dry hopping? Right after fermentation ends for a few days or right towards the end of letting it sit, close to bottling?

5 gallon glass carboy for $30, no scratches/issues I'm in Raleigh/Durham area, going to stay away from shipping on this one

Read through all the threads I could find about underpitching lager yeast and couldn't quite find the answer I was looking for. I have an old (end of June) WLP838 vial for an Oktoberfest, I made a gallon starter for it but the strip of healthy yeast appears pretty thin and I know lagers need...

Couldn't find anything on here that directly addressed my question-> I am planning to harvest yeast out of a primary fermentation today that I'm switching to secondary, it took a few days longer than expected and I was planning on making the exact same beer tomorrow. If I still want to...
