Tagged for later. I like a good vanilla porter.

Wow! I'm in.

I have only done 2 brews. The first one had really bad off flavors in it. I think this was caused by fermentation temps fluctuating big time and being to high. The contents of the bucket had to be in the mid 80s. This was back in march. Im going to be brewing a few more next week now that the...

Was it my imagination or did I see somewhere about a Beerfest 2 movie. Anyone hear anything.

I just posted the same question with the same problem. Didnt see this thread (Ive had a few tonite). Im bleaching all my equipment and I will do the same with the bottles too.

Ok so something went wrong with my first batch. Beer is very sour. Question is is it good idea to reuse the bottles. Im bleaching all my equipment and will be more focused on sanitation next go around.

lmao

LMAO! Thats a great line from one cool lady...

That build is so awesome!! I really like the look of the dark wood..... Great job!!

Hope 2nd comes out better. My first one was bad too. About to give it a go again.

I got some star san and that is a good idea with the spray bottle. Will be doing that. :mug:

Ok, bringing this back up. My first kit something went wrong. Beer is real sour tasting. I have since upgraded to a burner and some more equipment. Im going to give it a go at my 2nd and 3rd batches soon. I know my sanitation could have been better with a few other steps.

I made an amber ale from home brewers outpost. I got a Bavarian Hefeweizen coming from AHS.

I finally got around to brewing my first batch today and have it in the primary now. I had to use the electric stove as that's all I have. Never could get up to a good boil but it was close. Time will tell if it hurt. I already have an outdoor burner on the way to brew the next batch.

Because of being super busy with work and me wanting to wait till it cooled down some here in Texas I have put off brewing my first batch. I bought a kit back in August and wondering if it will still be fresh enough to make a good beer. Its a liquid malt extract....

Yeah I took the oxyclean route and gave them a bath, worked awesome for getting all the labels off and glue.

About to brew my first batch in 1-2 weeks, cant wait!!. How important is to sterilize the bottles before you bottle. I have seen some discussion on this but I think some are confused by sterilize and sanatized. I could run them through the dishwasher without any soap or anything or stick them in...

Totally new to homebrewing and excited to learn and get started. I purchased a kit and it should be here soon. One ? I have is my well water is super hard, would it be good to brew with or should I go a different way like buying some till I can get a good filter. Great site here with a TON of...
