    Europe Trip

    I'm going to be going on a two week trip to Belgium, Germany, and the Netherlands in late September/early October and I'm looking for advice on local breweries. I'd like to hit up something a little smaller that I may not have seen/heard of here in Canada. As of right now my plans are to...

    Very cold first day of fermentation

    When you worry about your yeast getting too cold, it's worth remembering that you store it in the fridge until you're going to use it.

    Biscuity flavour

    That is a possibility. I know for at least one of the batches I gave it heat after the grain was in the pot. I'll keep an eye on that next brew day.

    Biscuity flavour

    Hi all, I'm looking to get some help tracking down what the problem might be for my brews. I've done three batches with three different recipes, and while they all taste different, they all have the same after taste. They're coming out quite biscuity and sweet. I could definitely use some...

    Homebrew facepalms

    Last night, it was time to bottle the latest batch. Since I've been splitting time between my house and SWMBO to be's place, I took care to gather up my bombers from her place in the morning so I could bottle while she was at work. Fast forward to 5pm. I give all the bottles and my bucket and...

    Small Batch Fermentation Container

    My LHBS has 3 gallon carboys in glass and BB, and 12L and 16L buckets. I've only got a couple batches under my belt, but they've all been 3 gallon batches. The guy who runs the shop is a big advocate of 3 gallon BIAB.

    First SMaSH, what to expect?

    I love the description! Thanks for the replies guys, here's hoping for the best! As mentioned, it's mostly to get a feel for the different malts and hops. In my case it was also to fine tune some of the steps, which could have just as easily been with a standard recipe. Interesting to note...
