I'm a cook at In N Out burger and a Business major at Chico State. I get to live 10 minutes away from Sierra Nevada so I have that going for me :mug:

Hey guys this is my first recipe i have made by myself on beersmith so any and all tips or hints will be appreciated and considered Peanut Butter Stout Type:Extract Size:5 Gallons Yeast:Wyeast 1318 London Ale lll Estimated OG: 1.068 IBU: 27 Estimated alcohol %: 5.9 6# Amber...

@bford I changed one gallon of apple juice for a gallon of black cherry juice. Its over six months old, looks like a nice red wine and tastes great. Its so cheap to make and so hard to mess up that I think you should experiment with it

It was just a thought I had as I was looking through the forums here. Every time I see someone describe what a Saison tastes like, I think "Damn that sounds really good, I like all of those things" Then I try one and I just don't like it.:confused: Now that summer is coming up i find myself...

It's the spicyness that I am not a fan of. It tastes like someone raided a kitchen pantry and just threw random spices into the beer. But dammit I am trying really hard to like them:drunk:

Hey everyone I wanted to know if you guys have either a type of beer or a particular beer that you really really want to like but you just don't. For me it's Saisons. I really want to like them but I have yet to drink one that I actually like. Everytime I read a recipe for one it sounds uber...

I love sour beers. I have not had too many, maybe four or five different ones but I have not been disappointed by one yet and just love how strange they are. That being said, I drink IPA's the most because I'm from San Diego but I am kinda getting over all the big hop forward beers. I love a...

Green Flash makes some real good beers. Or maybe Left Coast brewery. they have a double IPA called Hop Juice which sounds right up your alley

I see so many people talking about beersmith and I was wondering how useful it is for brewing with extract and specialty grains. Everyone i see posting about it seems to be brewing all-grain. So far I have been brewing recipes that I find on here and relying on suggestions from my LHBS, but I...

I would say a Green Flash IPA if you can get your hands on it. It was one of the first IPA's that I actually enjoyed. After that maybe a Stone Enjoy by. Both of those beers are worth a taste

No one in San Diego will argue about how whiney he is haha. But the Chargers are 5-2 against teams finishing the season with a winning record. And every team in the playoffs own a winning record :D Just look for the upset special against the bengals. P.S. Why does it look like no one wants...

Phillip Rivers plays up to competition and also down to competition. He played against second stringers so he played like one. When he plays against a good team he will play like a good QB! GO CHARGERS!

the jets defense can stop the dolphins, I have no idea what sport the ravens think they are playing but it doesn't look like football, and the chiefs are sitting players. All this sounds like a recipe for some Chargers postseason football!!!

I can't get it out here in San Diego and would love a six pack. I have access to all these wonderful San Diego beers :)

I thought corn sugar didnt impart any flavors. Isn't it table sugar that is supposed to leave the cider taste?

dan I only have two ciders under my belt but i have also made mead and a good amount of beer and I have to say an airlock is necessary! It stops infections in your brew by allowing nothing to get in and filling your headspace with CO2 instead of oxygen. that being said, the krausen (Thats what...

I have not been brewing too long (just over a year now) and i tend to take breaks that turn out to be months at a time, but I always get excited either looking through these posts or by brewing. For you I would say have a brew day and if it still doesn't excite you after that, then it might be...

well it's almost 2 A.M here on the west coast and I just finished making some black cherry apfelwein and a blueberry mead. The whole time I was mixing my ingredients I couldn't help but feel like a was a mad scientist that did experiments in the dead of night :D Does anyone else get this...

no problem, I know there are people who filter on here but i just re rack until it is clear. it usually takes about 2 racks to get it all the way clear. be patient with it. I dont really see any growths around the fruit, looks like krausen to me. hope this helps!

i have a friend who knows a few key words about beer that he throws out any chance he gets. We both love drinking and talking beer and it is funny to watch him use the same few words for almost every beer he tries. I try my best not to be a beer snob because everyone likes different things but I...
