    New zeland hop IPA

    no hop flavor

    i suggest a search on the forum for first wort hopping. it's a technique that is generally applied to partial mash or AG but there are a few folks on the forum who have used it in extract recipes with good results. i just bottled an IPA with all NZ hops that I FWH'd and the sample i pulled had...

    Mr Beer - Read all about it and ask questions

    Was this kit comprised of a can of HME and a pack of booster? If that is the case no amount of time is going to heal your problems. As for body developing overtime, it doesn't work that way - if the beer is thin it's going to remain thin, or in the extreme, simply become drier/thinner. You...

    Brewing around a cat

    my cat is actually my brewing partner - he knows not to get up in the process but he's always hanging out close by. as for the cat hair problem - never found one in a finished beer, but there certainly is hair around the apartment. i dust, sweep and vac on a weekly basis so that keeps it at a...

    Purchasing grain for custom recipe...

    use the brewbuilder applet for every recipe i brew. they can weigh out grains to the ounce and grind them wonderfully. BMW is fantastic.

    Beer places in Israel?

    http://esra-magazine.com/blog/post/whats-brewing found this for my SIL before she officially made aliyah in march this year. have fun. FWIW you should have a few of the Israeli commercial staples like Maccabee or Goldstar (both produced by the same brewing conglomerate), not bad bmc lagers for...

    Mr Beer - Read all about it and ask questions

    there is no way for you to know if it is done conclusively without a hydrometer - airlock activity is meaningless. that being said, it is likely done. give it another week for safety's sake, that'll make it 3 weeks in primary and just about perfect. happy brewing good sir!!

    Local Beer is Better Beer

    i must admit that growing up in vermont i thought the buy local mentality was nationwide. now that i have been outside vermont for more than 10 years, i find it incredibly funny that the buy local movement is such a current movement. we sad, uneducated farmers and hippies buried in the hills...

    moroccan winter ale advice needed

    sorry to hear that my man - but as we all know time can heal a lot of things and with the amount of flavors you have bouncing around in those bottles time is probably you're friend here. fennel is definitely a unique flavor too...i liken it to licorice, i'm betting that given time it'll be...

    Mr Beer - Read all about it and ask questions

    Definitely leave them for at least 3 weeks @ ~70F (if it's less leave them longer, more then leave them for less time). It's just an excellent rule of thumb for most styles. Sweet as a flavor can also be attributed to simply using extract and your yeasties not being able to attenuate the...

    moroccan winter ale advice needed

    getting the right ratio of additions is the challenging part, and you have to keep in mind that these are flavors which blend together in a clay pot for 4+ hours at 300F traditionally. FWIW the ratio of ginger to turmeric in moroccan food is generally 2 to 1. The use of cilantro is always...
