I would like to no the recipe as well.

I am doing my part. I have recently came of age (a month ago) so it is nice to be able to go buy my own beer now. I have been buying specialty beers at the local grocery store (Kroger) and my college roomates are getting hooked. During our last trip, we all bought different beers and swapped...

I know nothing about making cider (only beer), but my sisters and mother insist that I try to make them something similar to this drink. I make my brother and dad beer, so I think I should make something for my mom and sisters. I appreciate any help. Thanks

I have recently purchased my malted barley, hops, yeast, etc and I was wondering how everyone stores it. Do you leave the malted barley in the sacks they come in or do you put them in something else? I just want to make sure I keep my ingredients fresh. Thanks in advance for the help.

Sorry for the slow reply, things have been a little busy. We bought the "Showcase" version of the brewmagic system, along with two of their keg fermenters last week. We should recieve the system around August 20 or so. The first batch we brew will be a red ale, and the second will be an...

I downloaded it a last week, I haven't had a whole lot of time to mess with it yet. I have finals next week, been a little bit too busy. Looking forward to using it though.

Where did you get your two 20 lbs tanks at? I am looking at getting a couple myself

I can hardly sit this book down. Written by the owner of Doghead Fish Brewing Co, Sam Calagione. He talks about the adventures of starting your own brew pub and gives advice to others wishing to do the same. I recommend this book to anyone, even to those who aren't homebrewers. It is both...

Interesting book. It is not a book you read, it is one you skim through for fun. Contains a lot of trivial misc information that you could bring up while at the bar.

We have spent the last couple of weekends cleaning out an old milking parlor on Kyle's family farm. We are starting to build our walk in fridge and we will have the refridgeration unit at the beginning of September. Last thursday, Kyle and I took a trip over to Sabco Industries...

It is actually http://www.moonshine-still.com/. Of course I was just checking it out for educational purposes. ;)

I believe 6 row is harder to grow than the 2 row as well. This might account for lack of use.

I am going to have to stop in at Sabco, I just checked it on mapquest and it is only 4 miles from my house at school. It is going to be like a kid in a candy store. :)

The drunk reviews are always better than the sober ones, especially from those who are use to carbonated water. I had mix results this weekend at a party. At the beginning of the nite, I had mix reactions. When everyone was a little more liquored up, I told them i have a different batch. And...

Welcome aboard. This is a great forum.
