We usually have a big tailgate party for work at a brewer game every year. I'm sure a group of Homebrewers could do it too. I am kicking around the idea of organizing something like this depending on interest. Obviously this would be a great opportunity to share and sample Homebrew and make new...

Forgive the stupidity of this question, but yeah. I racked q dry hopped batch to my secondary, and i want to figure out the approximate volume for priming sugar. Does anyone have a picture of a 5 gal better bottle that they marked volume on?

Woke up this am, went into my fermentation room and it smelled of rotting eggs/sulfur. I have not encountered this before. The snell is coming from 1of 2 batches that are blowing off into the same bucket of starsan. One is a two hearted with us05, the other is a rocefort clone with 1762. Could...

So we are having a snow storm, I am working 12 hours because of the snow(work dpw) and I get home at 4 am to a 53* house. The friggin furnace went out! I have 4 batches going right now. 3 are done fermenting and im not really worried about those yet as they are still around 63 degrees. I have...

So I tried a bottle after a week of a 90 min ipa clone. The first bottle smelled and tasted of bananas and was flat, I grabbed another that was carbed and had no hint of banana. It got hot during fermentation for a few hours but got it under control. Did I have an infected bottle? Did i not get...

I picked up the grain for a dead guy clone at NB today, while there I saw a limited edition Dundalk Irish heavy extract kit. I asked if they had an AG version, they dont, but they used to, the guy was nice enough to pull up the AG recipe. so I gather all the grain for a 5 gal batch. I brew it...

Before you know it after all the worry and waiting, you will have delicious beer on hand, and a lot of it. This is my first batch!

Hi, Im Joe, Im from Milwaukee. I come from the land of beer. Mmmmm Beer, why pay someone else to make it, when you can make it and pay yourself with beer? I want to say that this all started a few months ago when me and the "wife" were drinking wine. Well, I said "I could make wine" and i...

I am about 24 hours into a DFH 90 clone with 2x nottinghams. It is 65 in the room. the better bottle is at 72 and I have a 1/2 blowoff hose with a #10 stopper. There is a steady stream of gasses coming out followed by a large burp of gas every 10 or so seconds. The problem is that I can actually...

This is my first attempt at a larger partial mash like this and throwing together a recipe influenced by what I've seen for a bdsa. I know this is going to take a while to wait for it to finish and while I am a noob to brewing I want to give a big beer a shot. Here's what I have in mind, and any...

I brewed the nb Caribou Slobber, got a hydrometer 2 days ago. I siphoned out a bit to check it. Its at 1.017. Flat and warm I tried it, a lot hoppier than moose drool, but then again I spilled some sludge from the brew kettle into the fermenter. I actually like it. It once las long once bottled...
