    Worlds fastest IPA!

    All I drink is IPA's. I know, boring, but it is what I like. I have been super busy with work and life so I was considering a new tech. I was thinking that the "15 min boil" would be a good technique for me, with all of the late hop additions. I have 35 lbs of hops in my freezer and no time to...

    Pump trub out of fermenter with auto siphon prior to pitching...?

    I did a few searches and came up with nothing... Has anyone used the autosiphon to physically pump out the trub from the bottom of their carboys. It seems like 15 min after transferring to the primary and before pitching the yeast, all of the trub has settled out (with whirlfloc) and is...

    Hop Seeds for Sale...?

    Maybe it's just the novice in me, but I had no idea that hop seeds were sold. Does anyone know anything about this? I planted rhizomes two years ago which went fine. Has anyone grown from seeds? Hops Plant : York Seed, Making the world greener, one seed at a time!

    Anyone used Brew-Depot for Hops by the Pound?

    Has anyone used brew-depot before? Their prices for bulk hops are pretty darn good. I need some Simcoe and couldn't get it from the hops direct.com sale going on right now and found them at brew-depot for $16 per lb and thought that sounded like a great price. Any experience with them...?

    Adding DME to Primary 1 day after pitching yeast?

    I used the search and didn't find anything. I did my first all grain last night and my og was .035 points under my target. Target was 1.089. I read a 1.055 at 70degrees. It is an IIPA. I know, a big beer for my first AG. So, the friendly fellows at our LHBS said to add 3 lbs of pilsner DME...

It was released about two or three months ago. I don't know if it gets shipped out of California. Anyone got any ideas on a recipe? I taste a...

    It won't stop fermenting....help!

    Hey All, My 5th batch of beer sat in the Primary for one week, and now has been in the secondary for 3 weeks going on the fourth in a few days. It is still producing bubbles at one every 20 seconds day and night. When should I bottle, considering all of this fermentation going on? It is an...

    Accidently Boiled Mash Instead of Soaking At 150 Degrees

    Hello Home Brewers, My first Post!!!! Well, I made a serious kook move tonight. I started my third batch of brew off completely wrong tonight and didn't realize it until the end of my mash process. I boiled the mash for 30 minutes instead of soaking it in 150 degree water. After I realized...
