Thanks guys for the assurance of my beer being safe. I was just worried since spiders carry bacteria and such. But in small amounts im sure everythings ok. In two weeks I will crack open a bottle and see. Thanks again! And yes I love the ideas for my brew name when i label them!

Hello guys today I came across a issue that seemed to of made my heart skip a beat. After I finished bottling my Kolsch i brewed 3 weeks ago, during clean up I found a small spider in my bottling bucket. I came to the conclusion that the spider got in this during the cooling process of my wort...

Hey all, I have been lurking around on this website for such great tips and want to thank everyone in advance for their contribution. Last thursday about 8 days ago i brewed an Oktoberfest with white labs lager liquid yeast. My temperatures have been around 64-70 F in my basement. It seems my...

If you want to be cost efficient then you should go back to Mr. Beer.

Removing cap will result in losing too much carbonation. After recapping it when the time comes to open the beer later it may be a tad flat.

Although pitching yeast at that temperature is not ideal. Beer is very forgivable, you should be ok and still end up with really good beer. Hope this helps a bit. Cheers!

Personaly i have done both, cthis being transfering everything in my brew pot including the hop sediment into my fermenter. I have also filtered out most of the hop sediment in another brew. Either or, your beer should still come out fine. To help reduce disturbing the sediment when it comes to...

Yeah i started my seafood diet which might be part of it, but i might take a week off from it. This might possibly help me get used to my homebrew. Then I can continue my diet because quite frankly I like fish. Smoked salmon anyone? Cheers! and thanks again everyone.

Thanks everyboy for your input. Tonight when i poured my brew i left about an inch at the bottom and my tookis stopped being an airlock. So untill next time cheers everyone!!

I usually pour all the beer out of my bottles and only leave the gunky goop of yeast in the bottom. I think next time I will be sure to leave some beer in the bottom so I do not drink the slurry yeast again. Vitamin B? More like vitamin gonna B outta my @$$ soon... I regret drinking the bottom...

Hey all I am just curious to why possibly my homebrew is giving me deadly gas. Maybe it is my new seafood diet but I am beggining to think it is because of my homebrew. I am still fairly new to this and I suppose what I am asking is there anyway to reduce the toot?

Haha i did the same recently :mug:

After first real brew: "Im so glad i don't brew with mr. Beer kits anymore"

I am so excited and wanted to share my experience with you all. After finally upgrading my kit ftom mr. Beer to a real kit and brewing a pilsner from True Brew. It came out perfect and delicious! I let it condition for 2 weeks and cracking open that first bottle to hear that hiss was awesome. I...

Hey Beek, I also started a American Pale Wheat beer ftom brewers best and today i racked my beer onto fresh strawberries in my secondary. To answer your question put your frozen blueberrys into your secondary and rack the beer ontop. I have heard that fresh fruits are best and prior to rackimg...

I know its tough im a new brewer and resiting the urge is brutal. Everyday i keep peeking at my bottles and admire them like a child. I whisper to my bottles "Dont you worry child, Daddys got a place for you in his belly soon". In the mean time i go to the liquor store and buy craft beer. Good...
