    Bruery batch 1000

    Anyone else enter the contest. My stout scored a 44 and a 40 which they gave as a total overall score of 43 and it didn't place at all so I am curious how anyone else may have done.

    Help Me RDWHAHB

    Brewed up a Kölsch for my dad's retirement party and while cooling, down in the low 100's I dropped an S hook that I hang on my hop bag strings into the wort. A few minutes before the end of the boil I dropped it on the ground into a small puddle. Had I not dropped it I wouldn't worry because...

    Secret Santa Reviews

    Alright, I'm no professional beer judge but i'll give these my best shot. These beers were delivered almost a week ago and I'm finally getting around to trying them. First beer to get opened was one of the commercial offerings. Southern Tier Unearthly. 9.5% Imp IPA. Nice...

    Brutus 10 So. Cal.

    As the title states, I'm looking to upgrade to a Brutus system soon. Can put one together myself but thought I'd look to see if anyone in the area was looking to get rid of one before I do.

    Zombie Dust

    Looking for some Zombie Dust. I have access to most of the popular West Coast beers. Russian River, Port, Lost Abbey, Alpine on occasion etc... Can put together a mix in trade for some other Three Floyds with the Zombie if you want to go that route.

    WLP051 Belgian taste?

    We made an Irish Red style beer a few months back and let the beer sit in primary for a couple months. We used WLP051 and fermented at 70-72 degrees. The beer itself tastes great but has a slightly Belgian taste, my friend described it best by saying it smelled like Hoegaarden when you bring...

    Melting hop spider.

    So last week we brewed an IPA and tried out a new hop spider based off of what I had seen here on this site. The PVC looks like it deformed and melted slightly. The question is assuming some of the chemicals released by melting PVC got into my beer, should I risk keeping it? It would be a...

    Stepping up a starter

    In the past I have stepped up by decanting off the 1 liter beer/wort layer after a couple days on the stir plate after it has settled out for a few hours and then made 2 liters of fresh wort, cooled and poured into the flask on the small yeast cake from the first liter. Is this the correct way...

    Fermentation freezer with aquarium controller.

    I know there isn't anything that special about the freezer but I wanted to show those that were interested. It's a normal 8.8 Kenmore but I used a Reefkeeper lite controller. You can get them from quite a few places generally for $100. It comes with a temp probe and 4 controllable outlets all...

    Water profile

    Hey all, I'm gearing up for another brew and would like to mess around with the water a bit as I am tired of making OK beers and want to step up my game. After checking my water report here. http://www.lbwater.org/pdf/longbeachccr.pdf Things don't look too horrible but I do notice...

    Simple stupid OG question.

    When AG brewing should the OG that you are shooting for be taken before or after the boil? Most recipes call for a target OG but call me stupid, It's not clear to me if this is what you should be shooting for out of the mash or after the boil.

    keezer/ fermentation chiller differences.

    Possibly a stupid question but I haven't yet found an easy answer while looking through the forums. I noticed on the keezer build threads that people use a temp controller that requires pulling apart the compressor side and wiring in the new controller and probe. In the fermentation chiller...

    Mash tun size.

    So after reading through Bobby's mash tun thread I have just a couple questions. 1. For batch sparging grain bed thickness is not really an issue? 2. If number one is true than it would be better to go slightly larger so that I can use the same tun for 10 gallon batches of what would...

    Hey all!

    Just wanted to say hi and introduce myself. I've been haunting the boards here for a while so I felt I should speak up eventually. I've done some extract brewing and am soon going to be trying my hand at all grain with some help from all of the great info on this site. I'm currently working...
