Belgian wit after a week of carbonation. I wonder if wlp400 woke up while carbonating and took it down a few degrees in addition to the priming sugar. Took some time to pour it, but it has a long lasting head, and I like the aromas and flavour.

Brewing my first lager! A munich helles using WLP860. Did also a light decoction for some maillard reactions, hope that shines through in the final beer. Cheers!

I've used Beersmith for my first 28 batches, but on my last batch I brewed yesterday I formulated the entire recipe by hand (there is an awesome blog post on the subject, I don't have the link atm). This was the first time I've ever hit OG planned by the recipe, so I'm seriously considering...

Yesterday my Igloo mash tun kit arrived. Pretty expensive to ship all the way to Norway, but I'm not complaining. Now I'm just looking forward to next brew day!

Got two brewing books, and a book I'm returning for a wine tasting book! Yeah, and another year of homebrewing license from my GF! Sent from my Nexus 5 using Home Brew mobile app

It'll be much better when carbonated and served at the correct temperature. Good luck brewing and poking around :)

Looks nice! Want to do brew an IPA with Fuggle and other English varieties sometimes soon. Given the fact that I want to brew all kinds of beer, at all times, preferably at the same time, that coincidence is not very impressive.

Ï had EXACTLY the same thoughts as you, small batches, experiment often, and it worked just fine. Had a 18 liter pot and brewed 10-12 liter batches, but I just had to go bigger, so now I brew 18-19 liter batches, but have to brew just as often as before!

Preparing a talk I'm having today. Here in Bergen, Norway we have a student organization, which I have been a part of the last 6 years, which run this concert place, and I'm going to talk about tasting beer to all of the volunteer bartenders. It's common knowledge that volunteers are fantastic...

Today I washed some bottles, ready for bottling an American Blonde and a Belgian Blonde on Thursday to be ready for my girlfriends family annual summer party. Haven't met most of them before, so I hope my beer will impress them.

Spontaneously made mead for the first time. Just water, honey, yeast(soon), nutrition(soon) in fermenter, and I'll probably add some fruit in secondary.

Today I did a lot of forum browsing (if that even counts), and went dumpster diving for a better mount for my STC-1000.

About to set a new personal record, five batches fermenting at the same time! Christmas ale, IPA, Robust Porter, American Blonde, Belgian Blond!

8 liters of Christmas Ale (high ABV) 13 liters of IPA 12 liters of Robust Porter

But yeah, a great tip is to be open to your SWMBO, I do and the worst reaction I get is "You've spent THAT much!? Oh well.." and there's nothing more to that.

I'm a brewer in Norway and our prices at LHBS is more expensive than anywhere else. I keep a good track of how much I spend(including everything, fridge for kegerator etc. etc) and how many liters I brew so I can at any time calculate the price of my brewing. I spend a lot on brewing, but buying...

27481 New to the forum, so I'll add my total so far this year. 27481 + 33 = 27514 As a european, I'll have to convert it to liters for it to make sense. 104 026.9 liters + 126.34 liters = 104 153.24 liters in total

Surfing ebay for stuff for my kegerator project. Bought my refrigerator this weekend, and I consider living on leftover mash for food the coming month to be able to buy kegs, faucets, regulator and a tank. Also checked upon my IPA I brewed yesterday.

Did my first batch during the christmas vacation while staying at my parents place. I just got my equipment (BIAB) and got home at 8 in the evening and wanted to start immidiately, so I could have my first batch fermenting as soon as possible. Before buying all the equipment I did some...

Hi there homebrewers! My name is Nicolai, I'm a student from Norway and started recently brewing beer. My brewing experience started during a stay in Italy, I visited a vineyard in Tuscany(or Toscana as I prefer) and got inspiration to make things myself. Growing grapes in Norway is not an...
