    2 year old Honey Porter

    Just opened a bottle of Honey Porter that I found sitting in the corner of my basement. Actually a case of 22oz bottles. It is excellent! Kind of surprised on how great it is. Anyone else have a similar experience?

    Mold on Carboy not Mead

    I have bulked aged my Mead in the carboy for several months. Went to get the carboy and discovered some mold on the inside of the carboy, don't see any in or on the mead itself. Is it still safe or do I need to pitch out and cry? If it matters it JAOB recipe.

    I'd a search and couldn't find anything... First time bottling my beer, honey porter. Sat in fermenter a good three weeks before bottling, if not 4. It has been 2 weeks or so and put a couple bottles in the fridge. Opened one a couple days ago and again today. When I open it foam starts...

    Is this normal?

    I've done a few batches, all in a plastic fermenter. I am doing a Oberon clone. It has been in the fermenter for 2 weeks now. I am/was assuming this is the normal yeast stuff. After 2 weeks shouldn't all of this settled? Is this not the normal yeast stuff...

    Pur water filters.

    If I use a pur water filter to filter my water to add after boiling my wort, should I still pre boil it or will the filter take care of any nasties that could effect my beer?

    JAOM Tastes Like Yeast

    I made a batch of JAOM. Been bottled for about a month. Being an impatient man I had to try a bottle. Not bad, but man can I taste the yeast. Will this mellow with more time? A bit hot too. I waited for the mead to clear before bottling, so I know it was done fermenting. Any thoughts...

    Didnt add enough water

    Ok, I'm an idiot. When I first started my beer I apparently only only put in 4 gallons of water instead of 5. I'm approaching the two week mark on my brew. What is the best way to handle this? Add a gallon of water now? Wait and add a gallon when I keg it? Any thoughts or suggestions would...

    Light and Beer

    I know you are supposed to keep your beer out of light when fermenting and storing. Does the term light refer to any light sources such as house lights or is it primarily sunlight that hurts the beer?

    First Batch, First Keg

    Just put my first batch of brew in a corny keg. Being impatient, I tried to force carbonate the beer and of course needed to sample. The beer has been in the keg for less then 24 hours. The beer is coming out really foamy and a bit flat. My question is do I just need to wait another couple...

    White film help!

    What is this white film forming on my wine? Put into secondary about three days ago. Black Cherry Wine. I did use star san. I read somewhere that it could be from that? Just thought I'd throw that in there.

    5 gallons is a lot of anything for me. How long do you think Skeeter Pee will last when bottled and stored?
