He's just upset he didn't get a beer in the mail :) Only kidding.

Up front I'll admit I haven't drank a lot of micro brew. I know that was the question but I can say hands down my beers are way better than any macro brews I was drinking. I dream about my beers. At work sometimes all I can think about is getting home and pulling a tall cold one off my keg...

That looks pretty tasty already :) What was the grain bill for this one? Looks like you converted your bathroom to a bar?? LOL I see beer mugs in the cabinet and a shower head in the mirror! Rich

Mine was DEFINITELY filled with soda, NOT syrup.

I had a pin lock keg given to me by my father who acquired it unlawfully over 30 years old. It was still fully pressurized and I opened it about a month ago. It had sprite/7 Up or Ginger ale. It smelled very stale as I was sprayed all over with it when I pushed on the gas in popit. I did NOT...

Best thread I've read today.

I'd be the first to do it if I wasn't so drunk all the time.

That looks like a fine beer. I've been thinking about brewing a hef for some time.

Well guess what? I just tapped this beer tonight after letting it sit for another week. I was originally drinking it at 2 weeks old. Its now about a month old having spent 2 weeks in the fridge. It's crystal clear!! Before: After: The color change has a lot to do with the...

I have had good and bad experience with old kits. I had Blush Zinfandel that was 6 years old (I kid you not) and it came out absolutely stunning. On the other hand I had a white wine (can't remember what grape) that was a few years old and it was had crystallized solid... When I added hot...

I'm curious about this too. I just finished my all grain and it was a blonde. As stated by DirtyJersey mine was stove top boiled but I used 2 pots so a got a good hot break and rolling boil. I did not however have a wort chiller and chilling was slow. But my wort was crystal clear coming out...

I'll be honest right up front. I don't have a lot of experience, but I did a very simple AG beer for my first. 5 gallon batch, 8 lbs 2 row 1 lbs munich 10 1 lbs Carafoam perle hops (60 min) Cascade(10 min) WL 1056 (?) american ale yeast. Simple, and best damn easy drinking bear I've ever...

Congrats!! For both the AG beer and your 6 week old boy. I have 4 1/2 year old girl and 11 month old boy. They are the only thing I love more than beer :)

I have to agree. I never did an extract. While I'm sure they make good beers. I was lucky enough to go straight to all grain. My father passed down his 2 corny kegs... With a cheap cooler, and 2 X 4 1/2 gallon pots and I was set. It's a long day but the beer.... Better than anything I've...

Hello all - Just joined up today. Lots of great information on this site. I've been brewing wine for years and finally decided to do beer. After reading all of the great information here I decided to go straight to all grain since my father passed down so many useful pieces of equipment...
