Good morning fellow homebrewers! I’m looking for some guidance/advice. I’ve been homebrewing on and off for about three years now, and I’d like to step my game up into making it a more regular habit. Due to space and climate constraints, I’d really like to transition into being able to brew 5g...

Wow, this is a tremendous resource. Consider it bookmarked!

Thanks for the replies everyone! The hop info shared has been tremendously helpful, as has the info about malt extract mixtures. I appreciate it!

Sorry, I should clarify: we made two separate 3 gallon batches using he ingredients listed above. Is the 3 lbs light LME enough for that size brew?

Just a generic light LME that our LHBS carries. I wasn't able to find a specific manufacturer's name.

Hi folks, I'm hoping you all can help me with some experiments my buddy and I want to run. Yesterday we ran out to our LHBS and picked up ingredients for two 3 gallon batches of pseudo-SMaSH brews. Our "recipes" were as follows: Batch 1: - 3lbs LME - .5 oz Magnum hops (60 mins) - .5 oz...

Was at a sports bar with a buddy of mine and asked for their beer selection. The waiter mentioned they had "a lager," to which I asked, "Oh, what lager?" His response was, "You know, just a regular lager." ....... Now mind you, I'm from PA and about 35 mins from the Yeungling Brewery, but...

Happy to hear it- and yep, I primed and bottles after fermentation was complete.

Good morning folks, This past weekend I bottled a delicious looking Hefeweizen brew I made. I allowed it to ferment for 14 days (just received my hydrometer in the mail), and I'm pretty excited about the result. The only thing I'm questioning is whether or not I used the right amount of...

Cool, thanks for the help. Looking forward to a fun brew day tomorrow!

Sorry for the double-post, but I felt the need to update: I ended up getting Pilsen light LME- how will this change things in terms of my final product?

Perfect, thank you. Now all I have to do is wait for these last few mins of work to tick away, then off to buy some ingredients! I appreciate all the help folks.

Awesome, thank you for the advice. I'm trying to go for something in the more traditional range, so I'll err on the side of caution and go for 6lbs. I originally wanted to grab a Pilsner extract, but unfortunately I don't believe my LHBS carries it, so I would have to order online. The only...

Wow thanks so much for the quick responses! I have some leftover sweet orange peel from a hefe I just brewed, so I may toss those in for some added simple complexity. Sailingeric, that's a great looking beer! I like your recipe and may have to give that a shot next. I'm trying to stick with...

Good afternoon folks, I'm looking to show one of my buddy's how brewing works this weekend and I was hoping to keep the process simple by making a tasty SMaSH saison brew. I found the following recipe and I wanted to see if you all thought the following would work out alright for a 5-gallon...
