Hello community, This is Mikka from Switzerland. I found pleasure in homebrewing during lockdown time and I'm looking forward to discussions, tips and new beer trends in this amazing forum. My beer styles and ideas: I love NEIPA, sour beer and herbal beer. Definitely no fan of German...

Hello everyone! Search says zero results for “false bottom” so I’m asking for help. I’m planning on building a 14” false bottom for my Mash tun. Not only will it be for filtration but also to keep it from scorching on the bottom. My question is: how big should the holes be on the screen? I’ve...

Unfortunately, we didn't win the grand prize, but we did win five hundred bucks. We're a group of seniors in college who had our plans ruined by COVID, so we've thrown ourselves headfirst into homebrewing and are hoping to get into the business of professionally brewing at some point (after...

I got into brewing recently and am enjoying it a lot! I was gifted a pretty basic brewing kit with two plastic buckets for fermenting and bottling. I'm thinking of upgrading part of my system for a Christmas present to myself. What do you recommend upgrading first? Fermenter, Brewing system or...

Hey folks. I just bought a house and I'm trying to get my equipment set up so I can start making some mead again. I have a spacious closet in the garage already set aside to be my mead room, but I'm having difficulty deciding what form I want it to take. Id like to see pictures of your equipment...

Are you totally obsessed with brewing? Are you ready to expand your homebrew operation past the beginner stages? In that case, you’ll want to seriously consider three areas of your procedure: milling, fermenting and bottling. Expanding Your Home Brewery: Milling A grain mill is one piece of...

It took me a couple of years of homebrewing before I started worrying about my fermentation temperatures. Up until then, whatever the temperature my basement was at, was what my beer would be at. However, I eventually wanted to control my fermentation temperatures to improve the quality of my...

There is a strong trend these days toward hot side temperature control, whether merely to maintain stable mash temperatures or to permit automatic temperature ramping, as for step mashes or for mashout. The majority of systems seen use modern electronics combined with electric heating elements...

When you hear the expression ‘Mad Scientist’, specific images come to mind. For me, it’s images from Disney movies - either in cartoon form or black & white movies. Although this image doesn’t match Darin Danelski’s appearance, as I toured around his work at U Brew U in Ocotomowoc, Wisconsin...

I bought parts to build a blowtie spunding valve and wanted to use this pressure gauge: Digital Low Pressure Gauge with 1/4'' NPT Bottom Connector and Rubber Protector by Uharbour, 0-60 psi, Accuracy 1%, Resolution 0.1psi https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07CXM3ZGT/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_0t6OEbPWD9TVY...

I’ll try to keep this as short and sweet as possible. For the last ten years of homebrewing I’ve been controlling the temperature of my strike water with a flame under a pot. For the last five years of professional brewing I’ve been controlling the strike water with a tempering water valve which...

Hello, I am looking at getting some more fermentation vessels for my setup so that I can have multiple beers fermenting or aging at once. I am currently in college with 3 roommates + whoever comes around on the weekends so we go through 10 gallons pretty quickly at our place. A local...

Selling all of my homebrewing equipment. Everything included for all grain and extract brewing. Tuns, buckets, hoses, wort chiller, custom infuser, etc. Also a keg fridge that holds 1 5 gallon corny keg. Taps, 2 kegs, CO2 tank and beer gas (nitrogen) tanks included. Too much to list! Local...

I recent got ahold of a 50’x 1/2” od coil of copper tubing and was thinking of making a new wort chiller out of it. My old chiller was great in my 3 and 5 gal pots but I now also have a 9 and 10 gal pots which are taller and wider.... so obviously I need a taller chiller.... does anyone else...

Howdy, I'm a Biological and Agricultural Engineering student and I'm trying to do brewing related research (getting to brew in a lab and say I'm being productive ). The problem is that there are many topics to research and I need to choose one. With my engineering discipline, I could choose to...

I know starting off, usually the cheapest option is the best way to go, as you don't want to dump money into something when you have no idea what you're doing. BUT I'm the type of person where if I decide to do something, I like being great at that thing, therefore after 1 batch of homebrew...
