I know this probably isn't the correct area so I'm apologizing in advance and hopefully someone can move it for me. Anyone have any recipes our success stories for any flavored vodkas that they have made at home? My pregnant wife loves the whipped vodkas flavors, pear and coffee flavored...

What is the best thing to do with my beer between the fermentation and bottling/kegging stage. Right now I have a batch of xmas ale thats been in the primary for ~8wks and I'm not sure what do to with it. I already have a keg in my kegerator and dont have room for a second. I would prefer to...

I was getting a lot of foam from my kegerator so i read a couple threads and thought my beer line was too short. I had a 5ft line and replaced it with a 10ft line but the foaming hasnt changed. I have it at about 40deg and 10psi. To force carb the beer i just set it at 12psi for 4-5 days before...

I have been slowly piecing together my kegerator, got a perlick tower off ebay, found an old but large mini-fridge on CL, and just today called keg connection to order a 2-keg kit. My problem is connecting the beer line you the tower. The tower has a 1/2" male threaded piece and I figured I...

I think i found a GE mini fridge on CL that i want to try and convert to a keggerator. Anyone have any luck? Any problems? My main concern is if anyone knows if i can fit 2 kegs in it and if the cooling lines are in the top of the fridge, i want to use a tower. Thanks.

Ok i have read a lot of posts on here, none of which i can find right now, about keeping your beer in the primary for 2-4 weeks and then tranfering to the secondary for another week or so, etc, etc, so i was hoping for a little clarification. In general, when is the best time to transfer...

Im fairly new to home brewing, hoping to brew my second batch this weekend, but already really enjoy this and hope to get into this a lot more this summer and have started to look into kegging. I have been trying to read as much as i can on HBT but my head is spinning and was wondering if...

I made my first batch a while back and am getting ready to try my second. My first batch overall went well, but it had a weird, some what yeasty after taste. It was an Irish Stout kit that i brewed and i am trying to figure out what i could have possibly done to bring on this after taste so i...

Ok, i am getting ready to make my second batch hopefully next weekend, weather depending. I have already converted a keg over for my kettle and was wondering what my best bet was to keep all the hops/sludge in my wert from getting in my fermenter. I have a valve and a center dip tube in my...

Ok, everything i have read always says that you should go with a full 5 gal boil if possible. I am getting ready to brew my first batch and am working on converting an old keg to be my kettle so i CAN go with a 5gal batch. The kit i have, from Brewer's Best, tells me to only do a 2.5gal boil...
