Hey all, I'm looking to brew a beer for a springtime birthday softball game. Thinking about spring beers, and tasting the amazing citrus flavors in my latest IPA, led me to the following recipe. Things I'm wondering about: 1) Is this the right amount of honey malt to get some residual...

Since I started homebrewing, swmbo asked if I could do a low calorie beer that actually had some flavor. I ended up taking the Rogue's Dead Guy clone recipe, cutting it just about in half, and fermenting with an Abbey Ale yeast. Belgian fermentation flavors aren't my favorite, but I fermented...

Hey guys, I'm relatively new to brewing - just started this year. I'm interested in talking to people about brewing, and getting some feedback on my beers! I'm working on getting to the TRASH and TRUB meetings - in the meantime, if you are in the regent square or downtown area and want to...

I brewed a concentrated batch, intending to top up to 5 gallons in the fermenter. I ended up boiling off more than expected, and didn't have enough water left - I have 4.25 gals of 1.053 SG beer sitting in the fermenter now. I'm planning on leaving the beer in the fermenter for about 2.5 weeks...

I was just racking to my bottling bucket after a 3 week primary, and saw these little guys: I'm assuming they're yeasts having a good ol' time. The thing is, my SG has been at 1.009 forever. Are they fermenting something? Am I worried? The hydrometer sample doesn't have anything...

Hi, I've been doing a little bit of brewing and a whole lot of reading. So far I've done a partial mash kit of my own, and helped a buddy with an all grain recipe (though I didn't actually look at his recipe, I was just helping while he ran the show). The SMaSH concept looks really...

Hi, My wife got me a homebrew kit for Christmas. It came with a partial mash kit (some specialty grains to steep), and I brewed it a friend's house. At the same time, he did an all grain recipe, and I think I will jump straight into that. I have seen a lot of nice recipes on here, and I...
