Has anyone used this and had it take more than three weeks to completely ferment out? Made a wit, 12/4/14 will be the three week mark. OG: 1.058 Currently: 1.026, shooting for 1.015. Kept between 64*-65.5* Trying to determine if I need to toss some US-05 in there to finish it up or just...

I'm going to get a Winter Wit going in a day or two and was wondering what y'all's input was on my spice additions. I'm not dead set on anything, but I think I'm on the right path. Batch: 5.25gal Yeast: Forbidden Fruit 5.25 Pils 4.75 Flaked Wheat 1.00 Flaked Oats 0.25 Munich 0.75 Rice Hulls...

So, if you were trying to add margarita flavors to a gose, what would you try? Lime juice, agave, triple sec, tequila soaked oak chips, etc?

I'm brewing a gose Friday and making a Lacto starter tonight. Essentially sour worting, but on a much smaller scale. At what point would you add the starter to the boil to A) kill the bugs and B) retain the sour that's already built up? 60min, 30min? I was thinking about 10min, but was...

I'm making a Belgian sour and I'm to the point to where I need to pitch my souring bugs. For this I'm using Wyeast 3763: Roeselare. The homebrew store only had two left and both were mfg Feb 24, 2014. They gave me both packs for the price of one and said I should pitch both at the same time...

I just installed a weldless bulkhead assemble on my new kettle and I wan't to get set up with a side pick up dip tube. I just don't know how since the inside of the bulkhead, inside the kettle, is not threaded. I'm sure there is a simple solution, I just don't know where to start. Thanks in...

Ok, so I'm just getting the ability to use temp control with a chest freezer and I want to try my hand at lagering. I really like, but can't get locally, The One They Call Zoe from Hops & Grain and I want to try to clone it. I've looked and can't seem to find anything viable. Here is what...

Anyone seen this or have any experience with one? It looks great except for one flaw...it only has one input. I think I'll end up ordering the goodies to build a STC-1000 temp controller since that will better suit my needs to be able to control cooling and heating units simultaneously...

Ok, I have this idea and I'm on the fence as to if it would work or not. What I'm thinking is that I fill one of my big coolers up with ice water and place it on my work bench. From there I'll run tubing from the spigot down to my wort chiller(building this weekend). My question is if...

I'm still starting out and recently decided that I need to be cooking outside so I can do the larger beginning boils. I did some searching but couldn't find a definitive answer, hence why I'm here now. The first two are available locally. The third, I would have to order. No Biggie. I...

I got this idea somewhere and now I can't seem to find the source. I want to know what you think since I made some minor adjustments to it. I'm just getting started and only have 3 batches under my belt(one solo) so any guidance would be appreciated. Recipe Type: Extract Yeast: Wyeast 1056...
