@TxBrew stoked for this giveaway! Just started building mine and a temp controller is on the wishlist.

I actually want to support IB more now, not because of the commercial but because of this huge backlash from everyone. In a world where people are quickly jumping to "I'm offended and you're bad for saying mean things" this backlash is getting a little out of hand. I can't log in to Facebook or...

Background: currently brewing one gallon batches. Not aiming for perfect styles or flavors just trying my hand at something that will turn out enjoyable for myself and friends. I order one ounce of hops which can last anywhere from 2-5 batches depending on the recipe. Question: How...

So glad I found that last post. I'm looking into brewing all grain one gallon batches and was wondering if I could just pour the mash through strainers, considering the small sizes, to get the same effect. Will be trying this my next brew day!

Thanks for all the replies! Which brings me to another question:beer serving temps. First, I've read ales should be served warmer. Hard to do at a bar but at home how do you get this? I thought i read it should be around 55F, is that what you set your keezers to, or fridge? Are lagers...

I'm about ten minutes from the 3F brewery, in northwest Indiana. I'll take you up on the Guinness idea, never really thought about the "twang" although I've drank it on plenty of occasions. I'll definitely try to find some brews with only one hop, I really like that idea for discovering...

New to homebrewing and new to the world of good beer. Planning my second brew day and at the same time trying to learn what I really love. 3floyds Robert the Bruce (Scottish ale) has me floored. I love the malt in that beer and I've noticed the flavor difference between cold and warm...

Where do I begin? Back in highschool I thought it wasn't just legal to buy a Mr. Beer kit underage, but also perfectly legal to brew underage. It was something we all believed, never tried. Heard Coors described as "rich." My buddies and I used to drink Guinness straight from the...

I've read here a lot of brewers leave it for three weeks minimum. I've also read a few threads about minimizing the time between brewing and drinking. Browse through the threads on fermentation and yeast, that's where my worries were settled. I'm still new to brewing but patience is key to...

On this batch I had absolutely zero airlock action after the initial blow off settled down. I still gave it around 10 days and from everything I've read here it could have gone longer with no ill effect.

Thanks for the advice!!! Beer turned out great!!!

Anyone else do this with their bottles? Something the wife and I do together in my off time.

Amazing how tastes vary amongst beer drinkers. Love me some GBH but that War Mullet is easily my favorite beer across the board. I've been getting a different bomber every week and loving the varieties. Haven't had the chance to try out Zombie Dust but I've got the Intel on when/where to pick...

Thanks for the advice! Taste tested and my first batch is bottle conditioning as we speak!

Good evening everyone, I've had a brown ale sitting in primary for nine days now. The recipe came with with my one gallon starter kit. I haven't taken OG readings or temperatures, just pitched my yeast and let her go. I've been all over every forum and recipe I can get my eyes on here...
