Today I brewed a IPA and everything went well. After pitching the yeast and taking the bucket downstairs to the basement I noticed that the rubber stopper in the lid was half way on. As I tried to fix it the rubber stopper fell in the wort. I quickly clean and sanitized another bucket and...

I brewed a IPA and a Belgian Wit, both being extract kits. When I took the readings for the FG with my refractometer (first time using one) and the readings were high for both beers. What are the odds of this happening? What could I have done wrong? Could it be the refractometer? For IPA the...

I'm currently working on building my single tier all grain system. I just finish my boil keggle and I'm thinking about brewing a couple of extract kits that I had purchased. To avoid picking up the traub I installed the diptube to pick up from the side. With this set up, it leaves about a...
