So I just bought my first kegerator second-hand from someone off of craigslist a few weeks ago. The kegerator works great. Also, the person I bought the kegerator from gave me a beer filler. I have seen lots of videos of beer guns but this does not seem to be one of those. Can anybody identify...
Thanks for the advice. I definitely need to brew and drink a lot more beer. I am trying to find some other beer people to try my beers to actually get some good input. The only people that get to taste my beer right now, due to covid and all of that, has been my dad, who like most dads are what...
wait really. I bought the kettle second hand so I did not get a manual with it. How off are the markings on the sight glass, because they seem to have worked fine for me so far.
I was thinking more about expanding my knowledge of the brewing process as a whole. Like what book and course do you think I should get to better understand how to make my own recipes and really dial in the craft.
Hey everyone, so I kind of hit a fork in the road when it comes to my home brewing knowledge and I really have no idea what and where I should go next. So I have been brewing for about 6 months, where I have made 7 beers, 6 of them have been all-grain BIAB, and now and I feel like I have finally...

Ya, I am definitely smelling something, but I dont know if it's fermentation or the bag. For the last brew I made using this fermentation bag, I spilled some of the beer into the bag when transferring it to my bottling bucket. So, don't know if i am smelling fermentation or just residual smell...
So I brewed up a honey wheat ale this past Sunday and pitched 1 pack of US-05. My OG was a bit high at 1.062. It's now Wednesday and there is no activity in my blow-off tube. Because I am using a bucket I can't see what is going on inside or if a krausen has formed. However, I felt the side of...
I am fermenting right now a double IPA. This Saturday I will be adding 8 pounds of frozen strawberries to my fermentor for the last week of fermentation. What I am trying to figure out is if I need pasteurize frozen strawberries or not. I have seen to pasteurize it and other people say that...
