Hey, I know a lot of folks on this end of the forum are new to brewing but I wanted to pop in and tell you to get good at extract brewing before moving on.. In the last year I've taken on a very intense job and would have lost my will to brew if it weren't for the ease of extract brewing on my...

This was a leftovers beer that turned into a house favorite.. 2x 3.3lb Golden Light LME .5oz Hallertau (Pellets) .5oz Northern Brewer (Pellets) WLP570 White Labs Belgian Golden Ale Yeast 3oz Corn Sugar Boil hops for 45 minutes and top up to 3.5 gallons. Rack after a week. After fermentation is...

There won't be a problem adding to the mash, but you might research apple varieties (cider making) and how to balance the flavor to what you want out of the beer.

I brew with apples every year, you won't need pectin if you have access to a lagering fridge and a little bit of time (1-2 months to clear). Depending on what kind of an apple/spice profile you are looking for, I would recommend adding the apples to secondary if you are looking for a cidery...

Update: I tapped my first keg (the Scottish yeast, after sitting in the fridge for the last month and change) and it is OUTSTANDING!! I would recommend this as a nice fall beer, right as the nights start getting below 50. I will end up bottling this keg to share around.

All 4 kegs have sold.

2 kegs have been sold! I still have 2 matching red pin lock kegs left $40 each.

All 4 kegs are still available, PM me.

It comes with experience, most of the time I go crazy taking measurements, time everything to the second, etc. But because I've brewed this beer 20 times or so, I know what it needs to taste like at all of the stages. I feel comfortable brewing it without keeping good logs.

To tell you the truth, I haven't taken gravity readings post secondary in a few years, once the base pale ale is done I let my nose and mouth guide this brew. If I had to guess, I'd say the final product will end up around 8%.

I really didn't want to give away my full apple honey recipe, but its too good not to share: This is per 5/6 gal batch: Take a few pounds of fresh apples (cored, chopped, skins on) and a few pounds of honey in a 2 gal pot, fill it until the water starts floating the apples (about 1/2-3/4 of a...

If I'm throwing a party we can usually kill 10 gal that night no problem, but if its just me and the occasional friend dropping in anywhere between 2.5 weeks and a month.

Good morning all! I've been lurking around the forum for a while and I thought I'd contribute my pale ale recipe. I mainly use this as a base beer for secondary and kegging/bottling additions; apples and honey is a great combo to add to secondary. The volumes are increased by a gallon over...

My wife brought home a bottle of Rogue's Pink Maple-Doughnut-Bacon abomination... Worst..Beer.. Ever.

I too am an active member of the Sour Hater's Association. IPA's are also on my list but I learned to tolerate them when I spent 8 months in San Francisco. IMO anything above 50 IBUs is too much.

I'm on the east side, PM me.

UPS Ground would be $35

I'm one of the lucky ones. She has not only supported my brewing from day 1 (granted, she has never wanted to help on brew day), but when we were searching for a new house, she made sure that we had a good space in the basement to built an electric rig. She loves brew days because of all of the...

***SOLD***I have 4 Reconditioned Pin Lock kegs for $40 each or $150 for all 4. They have each been used once since I purchased them and will be clean, sanitized, and pressurized to 10psi to show there are no leaks. The exterior shows normal wear, the rubber is intact, and will come 2 each in...

Bitching out an employee is one thing (mostly because you might not know the entire back story), but after hearing about the assault, that's where my patronage would end.
