Brewing With Total Confidence

Hey, good call about the baking soda. I removed it, and then lowered the amount of lactic acid to keep the pH the same, and the results below...
My tap water is very high in chloride so I usually just use distilled water, but for an NEIPA I understand that a ratio of sulfate to chloride...
I bought a cheapo chest freezer from Home Depot and did the rest myself. All-in it probably was in the neighborhood of $500 or so, but I also...
That's exactly what I was thinking. Glad to see it's working for other folks. Is your OG different than what the recipe calculators say it will...
Can you guys help me determine the pros and cons of adding my dark malts later in the mash for a Black IPA? Here's my thoughts. I've got a...
Very true, although I figure why risk contamination. For me it's just easier to get the yeast harvesting done and stored for the future before I...
Instead of harvesting yeast from an already fermented beer, I just make a yeast starter before each brew, and save some of that in the fridge, so...
This is what my wife is voting for. Except it's smoothies instead of cobbler. I think I'm gonna play it safe.
I'm really concerned about ruining five gallons of an otherwise great NEIPA. I think I might just brew the same recipe but skip the peach all...
Well I'm now extremely discouraged and slightly depressed. Thanks everyone. ;) Ok, here's my new plan. Let me know what you guys think. I...
Hey guys. I'd love some feedback on a peach IPA I'm planning to brew in a few weeks. Especially looking for advice on when to add the fruit and...

I'm not because I don't have a Facebook account. Is there a way to get in there without having FB? Or could you link me to the info I need?
That's a good question, and I haven't really gotten a straight answer, but given that the new units are shipping with 20a plugs and receptacles, I...
I've got a GF Connect that has suffered the common 'heat plug melting to the controller' issue. It was minor, so I was able to remove the plug,...
Nevermind. I was looking at the bottom under the water profile section, but now I see it in the "Other Ingredients" section. Should have looked...
I've adjusted my water profile and tweaked exactly what additions I need to add to my water to reach the target profile. But when I click on...
Normally I brew IPAs and I generally add gypsum and calcium chloride to lower pH and soften the mouth feel. Should I do the same for a saison? How...
It's technically an Imperial Stout, I guess, given its gravity and IBU. Here's the recipe. Keep in mind I wrote this to make use of ingredients...
Ok, so it seems like the general consensus is 60 minutes only. Should I just do one ounce of Fuggles and one ounce of Chinnok? Or should I bump it...
