I recently purchased a Traditional Harry Mason Beer Engine (). I want to make cask ale but obviously want the beer to sit on the yeast as this video shows (). No real questions but has anyone tried this and have comments/pros/cons about it? I am aware of the short life of the beer and...

http://www.homebrewing.org/Citra-Pellet-Hops-1-oz_p_3337.html is my local shop. Appear to have Citra availible

Crazy I just used Galaxy for the first time last month and noticed how similar it was to the Citra hop right away! I would agree that it is a great substitute if you cannot find Citra. My galaxy ale is still in primary though..

Hey everyone, just looking for a tried and true extract w/ steeping grains Pumpkin spiced ale recipe. My girlfriends mom wants it for October/November. Looking for something like 1060 and less than 25 SRM and that doesn't involve cooking a pumpkin (more interested in the spices like nutmeg clove...

Thanks for the replys guys! I understand now, definately going to see what my water profile is and not go in blind again!

Not sure, just said on the bottle to add 1-2 tsp per 5gal, so with 8 gal of water, i figured id add 3 tsp. but it was kind of just a guess, never messed with water profile before, kinda a beginner. So anyway, any reason my gypsum addition is...off?

Just figured id ask because I made a bitter and added gypsum to all of my brewing water before starting anything. Just asking if that was the right thing to do, or should I have added it to the mash only? This was a 5 gal batch, the first thing I did was add 3 tsp of gypsum to the 8 gallons...

I would definitely hook the co2 line back up and purge it a few times, but I wont have my tank back for another 24 hours. But thanks for the responses guys!

I have a fridge holding two kegs, I brought my co2 tank and one of my co2 lines to my friends to use for a party. I realized I forgot to disconnect the quick disconnect co2 line from my other keg (full keg of beer), When I got home, I tried pouring a pint assuming there would still be pressure...

I've had great luck with WL abbey ale yeast, wheat LME, candi sugar with amarillo and sorachi ace. Something like 1064 gravity, great for an extract!

I have been brewing for almost a year now, about 30 batches under my belt. I have noticed that every one of my batches end up with a lower gravity than projected, even my extract batches. I use Brewers friend recipe calculator for every recipe and the projected OG is always about 20% higher on...

Hey I know this is Late and somewhat off the topic. But I found this thread after a google search while looking for a homebrew club in the Wayne county area. So does anyone know of one near Dearborn, Detroit, or anywhere in that area? Thank You -Alex
