Gandhi bot? Just scored five four-packs.

All - I was thinking of attempting a wet hop ipa using fresh picked cascade only with pellet for buttering and dry for dry hopping. Has anyone used fresh cascade only? Is ratio 7 to 1 wet to dry?

Ive been thinking about purchasing a pump to assist in whirl pooling and draining while whirl pooling to keep all hop gunk in the boil pot. Has anyone had luck doing so? I watched a fourth second clip on YouTube that looks amazing

SO my hose is frozen and I programmed my fridge to get my westy 6 clone (thanks csi) down to 65. Put in the snow and ice bath which dropped to 110 then needed to get the kids from inlays. Well four hours later when I returned temp was 100. Am I screwed?

Yeast starter at 27 hrs look ok?

Recently purchased the a419abg-3c electronic temp control and having issues operating. Must admit the brochure is in a different language (not really but to me). Anyone ever use and have advise on setting up and operating?

I purchased a kit at northern brewer for a holiday saison. Addition of d90 at beginning of boil. I've read that adding d90 near end of the boil can change flavor profile. Any thoughts or experiences with this?

Brewed a partial last month and tasted this evening. OG around 1.15 and FG around 1.043. Low on OG and slightly high on FG. It tasted really sweet...will this mellow with age or FG to high and will never mellow. Im afraid that with too much age it will lose holiness and remain sweet. Any...

Ot sure what is wrong with my hops. Yellow leaves at bottom of vine that are dying!!! Under / over watered? Under / over fertilized? My hops right next to this plant are perfect. Hops dying five feet up

I don't have enough brewing experience to formulate my own so figured I would brew a regular summer blonde and add fruit puree - say 3lbs in secondary....thoughts? Should I use more or less or include in primary instead so not as strong flavor/ aroma? Thanks in advance

Hi king of making cider for the first time - issues with using pasteurized cider? That's all I can find...

Just cracked my first all grain. A bit early, just wanted to taste as I'm anxious. Tastes good but extra cloudy - the wort got up to 205 or so but no boil. How does that impact the beer - taste, look, etc Thx

Just finished my second all grain. First was a disaster but much smoother this time and was only .002 away from estimated OG. Hopefully turns out great - it's a clone for Alesmith IPA.

Leaving for business tomorrow - for sake of time can I add dry hops to primary after fermentation? Any issues or off flavors?
