    Wheat Beer - 2 Questions

    Thank you all. I will keg it as soon as it is finished fermenting, place it in the kegerator and set the psi to 14 and drink in about 2 to 3 weeks. That sound right?

    Coopers Ipa Kit And Steeping Specialty Grains

    Hi, I have done a few Coopers IPA kits and I have liked the taste. I want to try my hand at steeping and would like to know what specialty grains I could use to improve the flavour of this IPA. I also intend to use Safale 04 yeast instead of the kit yeast. Also, 1kg of dried malt extract...

    Show Us Your Beer Engines

    Hi, great work. A quick question. If you place the corny in a small fridge, do you run the beer line through a PVC tubing? Do you need a fan in the fridge? Thanks
