Awesome guys, thanks. Good to know all the possibilities.

I'm looking to get into kegging because bottling can be such a hassle. I noticed there is no need to kill the yeast, because it's work is mostly done. There is also no need to add priming sugar because you're carbonating by pressurizing the keg with CO2. What would you do if you wanted to add...

I'll have to try something like that. Problem is I don't keg and probably never will...at least in the foreseeable future. The only thing I can think of is campdening up my fermented beer and then using CO2 tabs. Do those work? I'm a bit wary of using them.

I have a good idea of how to make good strawberry juice but I've got no idea what ind of a beer to rack onto it. I've made more wine and cider than I have beer so I'm not sure where to start.

That sounds like something my Grandmother would love. This wasn't acidic at all though. It kind of tastes a lot like strawberry jam but it wasn't thick/syrupy, just light and drinkable and good.

Has anyone tried this? I had a bottle of it recently at a nearby English pub and it was great. It actually surprised me with how full and delicious the strawberry flavor was. My friends loved it as well, they probably drank half my bottle =[ Anyone know how to make this? With the amount of...

Thanks Yooper. I love your recipes, I've been meaning to make banana wine for a while now.

I have 2 one-gallon batches of cider going right now, I racked them to secondary after a month in primary. I used Nottingham ale yeast and the juices used were Simply Apple and Mott's all-natural pressed cider thingy. They've been in secondary a few weeks and are still throwing lees but show...

Debateably Ancient* Ugli Mead This is my version of the JAOM/MAOM, but it uses an ugli fruit instead of the orange. Have you ever had or seen an ugli fruit? They're pretty damn ugly. I was at the grocery store with my girlfriend the other day and she made me buy one, when we went home to eat it...

Yep its an "s" airlock. Thanks for the reassurance!

Hey everyone. I made my first batch of mead today! There were only a few hiccups and everything went better expected. I do have a concern or two though. I'm using a 6.5 gal plastic fermentation bucket. I filled my airlock up so that both compartments were just under the MAX line with light...

I'm curious about what the limits are on what I can use to ferment? I know most plastics aren't the best idea for contamination issues, with the exception of Better Bottles. I'm just getting into brewing, mead actually, and I'm trying to figure out what size bottles I can get. I had the idea...
