I have a variety of used stainless fittings for sale, prices negotiable. I’m not sure how to post more than one pic at a time so here goes: Ball Valves 1”TC $15ea.

In the past whenever I have dry hopped I put it in a hop/grain bag, but my brother was recently talking to a guy at a beer tasting who suggested getting rid of the bag... The thought behind it was that when the hops are contained in the bag they coke in contact with only a small percentage of...

A couple weeks ago I brewed an AG dunkelweizen, and it's been fermenting away at around 66F down in the basement. From everything I read about this yeast I expected to primary for about 2 weeks and then bottle, but I just took a peek to see if fermentation was over or at least slowing and to my...

I've got two AG batches under my belt right now, and I've been going with a fly by the seat of my pants RDWHAHB approach so far just to get a feel for the additional steps and equipment. Everything has gone smoothly so far and now I'm wondering when to step mash instead of a single infusion...

I'm planning on going to the LHBS tomorrow to pick up ingredients for my first AG batch. Any thoughts on how this sounds? 10# 2-row 1# Caramel 60 .5# Roasted Barley .25# Black Patent 1.5 oz NB (Bittering) .5 oz Cascade (Aroma) WLP060 Mash @ 154 Sparge @ 170

I've been reading up on how to go all grain for a while now, and today I finally got around to building my mash tun! Before I dive in though, I have a question about how long to boil for. This may be a dumb question, but here goes... With a grain bill of 11.75 lbs, figuring 1.25 qt/lb of...

Last we celebrated the birth of my brother's baby girl by sharing a bottle of parabola, and I was blown away. The velvety smooth mouth feel, the layers of chocolate, vanilla, bourbon, and tobacco...i want to brew like this! Any thoughts on a potential recipe for something similar? I've looked up...

I started brewing in January, and every batch I make not only is my beer tasting better, and getting better head retention, but I get more comfortable with the process. Now I'm at the point where I want to get into all grain. I've been doing a partial mash with techniques borrowed from the...

I recently brewed a saison, since it was hot as hell, and without having a fermentation chamber in my house, it was the only yeast strain I could find that would work well in my space available...Not to mention its SWMBO's favorite style. Well it turned out great, probably the best beer I've...

I just bottled my saison, and I'd love to make another batch recycling the yeast. Yeast culturing is the next part of this great hobby that I'd like to get into, but I'm getting ready to move. So since I can't culture the yeast, I'm wondering if there is a sanitary way to save my yeast cake...

I've always just used single stage fermentation before, but this time around I racked to secondary after about 8 days, when the activity seemed to die down. Since I racked it, I haven't seen any activity. Was I supposed to pitch more yeast when I racked it, or is secondary more for clarity...

I'm sure that I'm just being impatient, but my first batch of homebrew has been fermenting for two weeks now, and I'm curious when to bottle it. The activity seemed to have stopped a couple days ago. There were no more bubbles on the surface, so I took off the stopper, pulled some out and did a...

Hi, I'm Graham. I've been wanting to brew my own beer for quite a while now, and just made my first batch last week, after a lot of reading and researching. Everything went great and it's bubbling away in the primary.
