I never add spare salts and still make great beer. Foes it really make a difference? Or does it depend on where I live and my water source ?

Perhaps brewing yeast is a bit more sturdy but I think it would still die in my opinion otherwise you would have to buy new stuff each brew day. That is your champagne yeast leftovers would contaminate and make your beer or wine go further than an ale or regular wine yeast.

What's the most interesting brew you ever made or drank and it still ( maybe surprisingly) turned out good?

Heineken 5 yrs old left in a warm garage. Water and Skunk spoke very loud.

You didn't see double , I posted 2 of the same pic by accident.

Anyone ever have any luck using bottles that were twist off? That is will the cap grab enough for a home brew?

Ok so here is the oatmeal stout 2 weeks after priming. My first stout. Used a British pale malt as base with some extra victory for a nice biscuit maltiness. Was worried it would have a nice dark look because i relied on only chocolate malt and roasted barley NO black patent. The color is right...

And my concern is the retention. I have no problem getting lots of the "foam". It only lasts a few minutes.

Lots of wheat.

Anyone think using Star San or One Step step cleaning carboys and bottles without rinsing affects head retention?? I have my suspicions... Lets start about creating/ maintaining good head. I have tried to reword this 3 times but alas there it. Is.

Recently saw a billboard for Redds in FLA. must be a southern thing it's not by me up north thankfully from the sound of it.

Looks like bubbles to me...

Looks good now you guys got me thinking I have to get a nice pint glass

Nice did you use black patent?

Please post some picks of your stout. I am making an oatmeal stout that seems like its gonna be in the 29L range. Mine is not ready for the glass yet but I wanted to compare the coloring, head, etc of various home brewed stouts.

Look into housing your own bees if you have a yard. I've seen it done and ifs not so bad you can order the queen online.

A local brewery by me mixed a blueberry ale and an oatmeal stout in a growler 50:50 It was amazing. Got me thinking about making an oatmeal stout and flavoring it with blueberry extract. Wondering if it would be as good...
