Re: Dead yeast help

It's pretty much the same OG/FG 1.1 Gravity, 1% alcohol, 2.5 sugar. However the taste although the flavor was good the alcohol wasn't there. The last reading was on 11/19 and is sitting in a carboy. So, do I buy another bottle of yeast and add it straight to the carboy? Thanks, John So I brewed a ba...

Dead yeast help

So I brewed a batch of pilsner from a recipe found in a book I own. I followed the extract brewing to the letter and found out I pretty much made a non-alcoholic beer. The yeast I used (given to me by my cousin) expired back in March and sadly I didn’t catch that when I was brewing. Is there any way...

Re: Craft Brewers Conference & BrewExpo America

Thank you for the great information. I really am leaning towards going this time. I've been to the CBC for the last 4 years (SanDiego, Boston, Chicago & SanFran) and it's an amazing event! I think you might need to join the BA and be at least registered as a Brewery in Planning in order to atten...

Re: Craft Brewers Conference & BrewExpo America

That's too bad I thought it was for both pro and home brewers. Thanks I've been to this conference twice, once in San Diego and once in Seattle, when I was planning on opening my own brewery. It is a trade show for pro brewers, so the content is not really geared toward home brewers, but it is inter...

Craft Brewers Conference & BrewExpo America

Has anyone attended the Craft Brewers Conference & BrewExpo America in San Diego? It sounds very educational and fun to me. If so, what are your thoughts and would you go again?

Re: OC Beer Society 'Afternoon of Sours'

The place looks pretty awesome! It looks like I have to get the dust off my suit if I want to play with the big dogs in a place like this. Ha, ha! Thanks for the heads up. I was getting worried if this was a scam or a real deal. I am not but enjoy the venue, it's at a really cool company that does h...

Re: Kegerator tripple tap

Wow, that is amazing wood work! I’ll try to find a photo of my old homemade kegerator which is nothing like the website posted. My basic mechanical skills were me drilling a hole into a fridge dated back from the 1970’s. If I remember correctly from some of your other posts, you're pretty handy, rig...

Re: The Hobbit Winery

I made my reservations 3 months ago. What's funny two weeks ago The Hobbit called me for a $40 fee I had to pay to keep my reservations. They hounded me like a freaking bill collector. I didn't have my wallet with me at work two days in a row and had to have my wife call them back. Ha, ha! According...
