    Acidic cleaner for homebrewers

    Hey all! I use Oxiclean for my CIP/brewing equipment and it does a great job. I've noticed some build-up that doesn't quite look like staining (it's a stainless steel kettle), but won't scrub off. All homebrewing cleaners I've seen are alkaline (like Oxiclean), so I'm thinking maybe I need an...

    What video games are you playing lately?

    Hello brewer friends! I obviously enjoy brewing beer, but also spend my time playing video games. (Probably too much time... :)) I love RPGs and have even recreated brews from some of my favorite game series, like Fallout and The Witcher. I'm curious if any other brewers are playing any...

    Sparge/recirculation arms

    Hello brewers! I would like to update/remake my recirculation arm/sparge arm on my mash tun setup. What's everybody using? Do you like it? What would you change? I've looked into PVC, but it's not rated for 150-160' F. Right now I use a short length of silicon tubing, but it doesn't get the...

    Let's see your beer journals!

    Wort stained, crinkled pages, chicken scratch notes, let's see em! How do you keep records on your brewday? I used to use 2 different colored highlighters to denote steps to complete vs information to record. My records are much simpler these days. I also have a beastly excel spreadsheet where...

    Favorite beer style of all time?

    If you could only brew one style of beer forever, what would it be? You're allowed to change up the grains, adjuncts, hops, yeast, whatever ingredients you want for each batch, but it has to fall within the same style every time. What type of beer would you pick?

    Grain volume

    Hello friendly admins, Is there a way to add the grain volume calculation to the quick water report? I find myself pulling up biabcalculator.com concurrently with BF to make sure my batches will fit in my kettle. Thanks, cheers!

    Golden Stout

    A friend of mine challenged me to make a beer with coffee. Since I just brewed an Irish Stout, I don't want something dark. I've always loved Golden/Blonde stouts and think I'm gonna take this opportunity to finally brew one myself. Anyone out there done one before? Basically it's a pale grain...

    Brewer's profile and Forum Profile

    Is there a way to link a Brewer's Profile to someone's forum profile? If I want to look at @Josh Hughes' british recipes or @Megary's stout recipes I have no way to find their brewer's profile. I used to be able to search for someone's user name in the "site wide search" but as it's been...

    Bots and Spam have been way worse lately

    Anybody else noticed? Like a definite uptick in the last month or so. Some of them are pretty sophisticated and liking each other's posts

    Base Malt comparison project

    I wanted to start a thread to track the progress of the base malt project that I'm doing. Here's the recipe I'm using: sessionable, hoppy, but no dry hops, and relatively equal Ca, Cl, and SO4. Same recipe and process, same amount of base malt but a different base malt each time. Starting with...

    Boil additions for flavor in no chill batches

    I had a question for @Trialben about no chill additions, but figured I'd make it public for everyone to see and contribute too. I'm brewing a honey lime pseudo lager and am figuring out how best to get lime flavor and aroma. My initial plan was to soak lime zest in vodka and add it as a dry...

    Soon I'll be brewing my 100th batch of beer. I feel I should make it special to mark the occasion, but dont have any ideas what to brew. What style of beer would YOU brew to celebrate the big event?

    Calypso hops

    Anybody brewed with them before? Curious what kind of beers they would work well in. I could always do a single hop beer and find out, but I was hoping someone was familiar and already had a recipe that they liked.

    Steeping grains disappear when converting recipe to All Grain
