Sound familiar? I found this in my news feed today... https://reasonstobecheerful.world/senior-loneliness-vienna-microbrewery/ Bonus topic if you are a Talking Heads fan. ...David Byrne is behind the posting's site

Just something to keep in mind if you are a bottler like me. I don't known if there is a way to track my bottles' lives...hafta think about that one...It stands to reason that this was a "younger" bottle as I've been doing this for 5 years now and I've got cases of empties that haven't...

What's with the forest fires my Canadian fellow brewers? @Hawkbox ! @Craigerrr ! What's going on? Ya made a mess outta NYC!

Ok...maybe not the best title here but you'll get when you see the pictures. I need some suggestions as to how best to get these sheared off bolts out of this mount on my splitter...I'm thinking just some liquid wrench and vice grips....other thoughts?

what do they do to ring in the New Year where you are? Pennsylvanians have a lot of funny traditions to mark the big event and maybe claim their fame with a 5 second spot on local TV...... Here's some of my faves.. In Dillsburg they drop a 300 pound Pickle....get it? Pickle...DILLsburg?? The...

Does anybody have any experience with molasses in brewing? I found this recipe that looked pretty interesting and not too complex...oh yeah...and Fuggles! https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/678652/hurricane-roy-porter Thoughts?

Can someone point me to a reliable substitution chart for Belgium Candi syrup and Corn Sugar or Dextrose for honey? These are going to be used as fermentables and I was thinking of just plugging them into the priming page on the site here but am not sure of any math behind the amounts in...

So it's that time of year when I have to guess the weather forecast. Last night and tonight there is a chance of frost an I have a garden full of green tomatoes that I don't want to see go to the compost pile so I picked them with the intention of making salsa verde or a green tomato pasta...

From today's email....interesting... https://brulosophy.com/2022/08/04/2022-general-homebrewer-survey-results/ Hmmm..since I've been brewing ...I've had a long beard, a short beard and I've been clean shaven...what does THAT mean?

So what do I have going on here? I don't want to take an SST scour pad to this but a nylon one isn't doing it. Time for Chemicals ?? Inside And the bottom.

Wait a minute..what are these brewers doing with the CO2 that their beer makes? Another good one from today 's news feed... https://news.google.com/stories/CAAqNggKIjBDQklTSGpvSmMzUnZjbmt0TXpZd1NoRUtEd2pxbXZmU0JSRldBTlVDeHF0Y2p5Z0FQAQ?hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US%3Aen Ah it's moments like this I'm...

In today's newsfeed ...that must have been the mother of all built up starters! https://news.yahoo.com/400-old-ecuadoran-beer-resurrected-021220761.html Inside an old oak barrel, Ecuadoran bioengineer Javier Carvajal found the fungus of fortune: a 400-year-old yeast specimen that he has since...

So I stubbed my toe on this article the other day and as a self taught brewer I'm always interested in how the rest of the world does their brewing so I took the time to read it and realized that while I do most of these practices, I don't do them all. I recognize we all have different rigs and...

Head for the Delaware and keep going! https://news.google.com/articles/CAIiEG4wXrBgLVLNd4sNbW4_QqQqGQgEKhAIACoHCAowr6T_CjD1tPgCMNKcpAY?uo=CAUiANIBAA&hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US:en I guess the NJ Restaurant Lobby felt like the breweries were "eating " their profits! Hey Brian, @The Brew Mentor and...

So I have this old capper that I found in a barn decades ago that I cleaned up and painted the base as it was the more corroded part. It's always seemed like a cool salvage job and last week I finally finished it and I've been "testing" the seal it makes on some bottles. The tests are, left...

Hey folks...proud cheap bastard here....has anyone had any success with fusing silicon? I want to seal one end of hose with a pinch sort of closure...think a round wedge shape... open on the round side, tapered to a wedge on the other side. The material's high heat tolerance makes it just a...

In today's news feed... https://www.eatthis.com/news-beer-gut-health/ And after clicking on that last link I can see not just how EatThis is bunny trailing you down into their gastronomic rabbit warren for click time but, also how they need to figure out how to do research! Jeez guys....is...

So I'm putting together my recipe outline and steps for a Dark Mild and I have run into a bit of a headscratch that I want to solicit your help with as to getting to the target 5.5 gallon batch. The grainbill is about 7.1 pounds and with my normal process using 1.5 and 2 quarts per pound...

Keeping up with the Joneszes...? A little survey from my news feed to check in on for my fellow Americans.... although I don't know what kind of credibility we should give it....apparently, beer isn't brewed with hops...and Utah drinks more Bud than Maryand...

So I have some stored kveik and other yeast that's in slurry form from prior brew and I'm not gonna be using it any time soon. Can anyone point me to an article or share your experience? I'm thinking to treat it like a sourdough starter and just pour off the old beer and add some pale dme...
