    Keeping Carbonated in Growler for 7-10 Days

    I have to deliver a cider I brewed for a party a week or so ahead of time, but would really prefer not to bottle. I am planning on filling a few growlers (swing tops) but I am concerned about the cider losing carbonation over the course of 7-10 days. My second idea was to fill and cap a few...

    Bitter Bite on American Wheat

    I recently brewed an American wheat and it ended up with a little bit of a bitter bite on the back end. It’s either due to the hops or as it stands now, a bit over carbonated. I plan on reducing the carbonation but unfortunately brewed this for a party this weekend. Any good fruit/juice...

    Ohio Soldered E-Kettle, SP14 Burners, & 120v Elements with Hot Pods- MOTIVATED

    Sorry for the delay. Price is per element and shipping would be 15 via USPS.

    Ohio 5500 watt E-Keggle, Still Dragon Controller Kit, 1x HotPod, & Broken Therminator. MOTIVATED!!

    Yes. I used it as a HLT on 120v and would get 10-11 gallons of water to 160-180 at room temp in a couple hours. Never tried boiling in the unit. If hooked up on 240v shouldn’t have an issue boiling in between 40-60 mins I would imagine.

    Mashed To High- Russian Imperial Stout. What now?

    I think at times you have to determine if it’s worth continuing your planned course.This beer was suppose to be a Maple Bourbon Stout that wouldn’t be ready for 8+ months and included other speciality ingredients (Belgian Chocolate, Kona Coffee, Pure Maple Syrup) outside the hops and yeast. The...

    Mashed To High- Russian Imperial Stout. What now?

    That’s my next thought if things don’t get started.

    Mashed To High- Russian Imperial Stout. What now?

    I’m fairly confident it was at 162 or above for a majority of the mash. I only used 1 oz of nuggets at the start of the boil. I completely acknowledge this probably will turn out horrible and went against all brewing principles I have ever known ha.

    Mashed To High- Russian Imperial Stout. What now?

    No, just didn’t complete the full brew-day do to the mistake above but in large part to 30+ mph gust and rain starting at boil. All ingredients used to make the beer were old leftovers and I had bunch of expired yeast due to cancelled brew days do to a new Little one. I figured why not just...

    Mashed To High- Russian Imperial Stout. What now?

    That’s what I’m hoping for, but decided to cut my losses early just in case. Saved the hops and yeast for the next brew day.

    Mashed To High- Russian Imperial Stout. What now?

    Well this ended up being a “Garbage Can Beer”. Between the above and winds picking up to 30+ MPH gust midway through my boil I called it a day. All the ingredients were left overs so I wasn’t to hurt. I boiled for 35 minutes, added some Dark Belgian Candy Sugar I’ve had laying around to the...
