    Tap Pouring Foam

    I recently made a vodka seltzer for a Christmas party and forced carbonated at 30PSI for the first two days. I dropped it to 12 PSI and it poured okay during the party. Although, a week later it's pouring and I'm having breakout where the seltzer is flat. I'm using 3/16 ID soft tubing with about...

    Has anyone else received their feedback from the competition this year? They said it would be sent out on the 19th after the awards ceremony.

    Immersion Pre-Chiller

    I've upgraded from a 25' to a 50' copper immersion chiller. I'm thinking of connecting both together and putting the 25' into a bucket of ice water. Basically using it as a prechiller. Has anyone tried this and seen any noticeable difference? In theory you would think it would have to be more...

    Igloo Portable Keg Picnic Tap

    I'm going on a trip to the mountains this weekend and have an IPA I'm bringing with me. I'm worried about the picnic tap producing foam since all I'll have is the keg being chilled. I'm using an igloo cooler to keep the keg chilled but the picnic tap and line will be exposed. I'm using roughly...

    Old Foghorn Barleywine Recipe?

    I recently had my wife pick up a grain bill for an old foghorn clone when she was near my LHBS. The recipe included 5lb of 40L and 20lb of 2 row. She accidentally ordered 5lb of 20L instead. Unfortunately she had it milled in together so I'm stuck with the mixture. What will the difference...

    Yeast Starter

    I made a yeast starter yesterday so I could brew this afternoon. I boiled 1 cup of DME to 2.5 cups water and pitched WL001 California Ale. I woke up this morning and it doesn't look like there's any activity. Usually it's pretty aggressive. Did I just get a bad batch?

    Question about Gravity Readings

    I'm in the process of brewing a pliny clone and have a question about my gravity readings. The original gravity was 1.068 and it's been 8 days in the primary. I took another reading and it was at 1.031. The final gravity is supposed to be 1.011. The yeast strain is WL001 - California Ale...

    What is the best Yeast Nutrient?

    I'm pretty new to making starters. I made my first this week and then did it over again in the hopes of using 1 vial of WL CA-01 for 3-4 batches. I'm thinking that the yeast nutrient will keep the yeast as viable as possible. Am I off base or on the right track?

    Best Grain Mill

    I've been borrowing my friend's gain mill or having my grain milled before it's shipped. Now that I'm buying my grain in bulk I'm thinking of finally buying a mill for myself. Any recommendations? I've heard good things about the JSP Maltmill.
