I bottled up my Witbier yesterday & i had one bottle that was only 3/4 full which i tried today, just to preview how it will taste. There is almost no bitterness to the beer at all, These are the hops i used: Vanguard (Pellets, 5% AAU) 20g - 60min Saaz (Pellets, 3.6% AAU) 15g - 30min Saaz...

Whats the best technique to rack beer\wort from one vessel to another without oxygenating the beer ?

I have read that Lactose is not fermentable by normal beer yeasts, & will give beer sweetness without creating more alcohol. Although when i add Lactose in "BeerSmith" as an ingredient, it calculates almost as much alcohol as Dextrose. Is that right , or is it just BeerSmith ? cheers

What sugar is best to use for priming ?.... Previously i have used Dextrose & do batch priming, in Beersmith's calculation it has an option for either Corn Sugar or C02, is corn sugar Dextrose ?

What would be the correct or most efficient Litres of water per Kg\grain ratio (including evaporation & grain absorption, etc) for BIAB ? One person says 2.7L\kg, but that doesn't sound right, (2.7L x 9kg\grain =24L) sorry to start a new thread just for this question but i cant seam to find a...

If i am racking my wort into a cube to cool (No-Chill), could i use a bit of the same wort for a yeast starter, instead of making up a wort using DME etc, specifically for the starter ? Or is it not good to leave the wort in the cube for too many days, as the yeast starter may take a few days to...

I am planning a Ginger Beer & i have read a lot of posts saying to "crash chill". Can someone explain what it means & how it is done. cheers

Does anyone know if the BIAB bags from "Gryphon Brewing" are strong enough to hold a 8+ Kg grain bill without breaking ? cheers

Hi all, I am close to doing my first AG brew using the BIAB method, & i just finished reading the BIAB pdf tutorial. The one thing i am not 100% sure about is that it says to Dough in the grain & then heat up to mash in temperature, wouldn't it be better to heat up the water to strike...

Once i rack my beer from the Primary Fermenter into a Secondary Fermenter, what is the longest it can be left for & still have enough live yeast to create carbonation for priming ? Is it recommended to add extra yeast for priming ? For example once i make a yeast starter & i am ready to pitch i...

I have been planning to do an AG brew using a 50l Stainless steel pot & a Home mage Mash Bag for some time. Earlier today i had the idea of using a slightly smaller pot ( or not exactly a pot) it would be a stainless steel mesh but the shape of a pot, & designed so it has a 1 inch spacing...

I am after a Large Pot (prefer Stainless Steel) suitable for all grain Brewing using a mash bag. Anywhere from 45L up. will pay $$$ as long as reasonable price.

Hello, Today i did my first brew using a Wyeast Liquid yeast. But i did not read the instructions properly, I popped the nutrient packed & pitched it after about 20 min (the packet was not puffed up). But i realized afterwards that i was supposed to wait several hours depending on the age of the...
