I'm on a mission to brew a sub-3.2% beer as a regular for the shop. Honestly I'm thinking more like 2.5%. We have a number of people asking for lighter craft beers. The lightest one I currently make is a Dark Mild coming in at 3.4%. It's a really nice beer and its great for a specific crowd...

I just had an RO system installed at my home and plan to use it in my Home Brewing when I eventually start to brew at home again. What I'm reading is telling me that when RO water is exposed to Oxygen, that the pH range can be as low as 5-5.5. For those using RO water, what have you found to...

We had our 2 year anniversary party today. What a whirlwind! I can't believe that 2 years have disappeared so quickly. We had a tremendous day with food, a popcorn truck, live music and lots of great supporting customer's I also announced a new hire. He will take on brewing and winemaking...

Well I've been light on activity for the last 2 weeks because my dog got sprayed by a skunk. Now you may not think that's a big deal, but this was huge! We went to St Pete's for a long weekend a couple weeks ago for some much needed R&R. Saturday night at 2 am we got the call from my daughter...

In st Petersburg for the weekend, Planning on Green bench brewing company, Any close that I might check out?

So the plan it to retire in a couple of years. I haven't had a system at home for a number of years now. My old system is with my son in law and he also has a bigger Ruby Street system. I want a smaller, simpler system. 5 gallon batches. Pressure Fermentor. Definitely brewing in my basement...

My son in law just picked up a used LG refrigerator with top freezer. The optimal place to drill the holes for the taps would be in the left side. Does anyone know where I can find out if there are any refrigeration lines there? The model # plugged into the LG site will only give me the owners...

Well, we're 2 weeks into 2022 and I haven't seen a thread on resolutions and or goals for this year. I have set some goals and am working towards them, how about you? Mine are somewhat selfish, but here's a start. Weight loss 25# Body fat reduction 5% Lasik eye surgery New vehicle Truck. Food...

I am in the planning stages for a Doppelbach. I have a nice big pitch of WLP820 coming off my Festbier and want to take advantage of it. For starters, I'm thinking; 75% Barke Munich 20% Munich 2 5% Caramunich 2 ~ 20 IBU Hallertau Mittelfruh or Tradition WLP820 Targeting ~7.5% ABV 2 step or...

Not a big fan of sours, but I'm getting requests to brew one. I'm not looking to infect anything in my brewhaus so thinking more along the lines of a beer with lallemand sour pitch. Thoughts?

I brewed my Irish Red this year with Loughrans Pale Ale Malt. I have always brewed it in the past with Munton's Maris Otter. If memory serve correct, this malt is not only very different, but much more malty. I get distinct brown sugar malt characteristics. I haven't had enough to know if I...
