Is this the beginning of an infection? Brewed 2 weeks ago. Sitting in the fermenter since.

I'm still pretty new to fermentations. I can't help but go check on whatever is fermenting at that time several times a day and get excited to see the air lock bubbling away. The more aggressive the bubbles the more I smile. Like a kid looking at the Christmas tree. I know not to place too...

I accidently froze a 1 gallon jug of mead. Put it in my keezer to try and cold crash but must have knocked the thermostat probe and my whole keezer froze. I took it out and it's thawing out. Is it still good. Not sure why it wouldn't be but thought I'd check

I purchased your basic plastic bucket brew kit and a TruBrew Red Ale extract beer kit for my first beer which is currently on day...

On impulse I purchased this kit from Home Brew Ohio and some local Honey. This is my first attempt at mead. I don't even know if I like mead. I love honey so I'm hoping I like mead. Has anyone used this kit and have any advice based on the instructions that came with it? Since the instructions...
