Thanks, and I appreciate the replies, honestly. I did try adding vinegar before I pitched the yeast and it started to ferment, yes it did but like vinegar ferments when making it from scratch. Mold and lots of it. When making vinegar at home it requires constant stirring everyday to mix it up so the...

wine/vinegar addition to brew

If this is off the wall or just plain dumb , please don't flame me :-P i wouldn't expect that from these forums as they always are friendly. Ok. What would adding wine of no particular kind or fl...

hot water tank as kettle possibility
Just replaced my hot water tank at my home. Now the old one works ok except for a high pressure valve at the top. I would remove the cover anyways and since the heating element works fine and could bring water to a boil. Going to make an attempt at brewing in there. Has anyone done that before?

Wanting to share, some experiences
I really do respect the beer kits that are being sold, not Mr. Ber, but the brands like cooper's and some local brewers produce their own kits. I like them because they are easy and almost fool proof that can make a very good tasting brew. I do see them there at the store and most the time always th...

for comparison
i know its not that great. But it was free and a plus is that i can reuse the keg for my own purposes. In the meantime its main purpose will be to showcase my homebrews. Maybe even trick haters by telling them its my beer and when they criticize it , show them whos boss. Or compare by giving taste t...

natural carbonation kegging
i am ready to use corney kegs. Would it be wise to let my batch settle in one for a few weeks after 2ndary and would the priming sugar be enough to seal the keg? Probably have to use co2 to dispense the beer too right? Thanks
