First, Thanks everyone for the great feedback, some good points and ideas to work on. @brewhaus88 to finally give feedback - since I'm starting off using kits, all the grains are mixed together so I just divide in half by weight and use Brewers Friend to check yeast and any other numbers. The...

I just bottled my third batch over last weekend so I'm just getting started, but I'd like to share my approach and open for any feedback in making even better beer. I went straight to All-grain and use stainless as much as possible- Mash&Boil, Anvil SS Fermenter, Keggco 6Gal boiler and bottle...

I have my first batch, a dark ale, in the fermenter, so you know how new I am to this brewing. At the end of the third day, I no longer saw any activity in the air lock for at least half a day ( I know a reading would be a good idea but I don't want to contaminate so I'm trying to avoid it on...

I ordered some good silicon 3/8" tubing before I got the M&B. It came in the other day, and yes, it has a 1/2" nipple on the valve but the 3/8" tubing fits with a little stretch giving a very tight fit so probably don't need a hose clamp - I'm only using it to lauter into the fermenter so no...

I'm hoping to skip the extract and try an all grain as my first attempt at brewing. I'm retired and have the time but just starting out and don't know if this is a crazy way to start, but I'm sure it's where I would end up if I kept brewing so why not just go right to all grain? Any tips

Just move the distill equipment out of the way, time to brew some beer. Long time beer drinker that is tried of all this craft stuff full of coffee, chocolate, fruit, and everything else. I just want some good beer and it looks like I may have to brew it myself. Hope you can help me on the right...
