This Spring I'm going to start working on a brew structure. I'd like to make it out of wood since I already have the tools for it and don't have the metal working knowledge to make something from scratch. I'd like the design to be collapsible so that it takes up the minimum amount of space in...

Ten months ago I posted a question in this thread about bridging two home brew kegs because I was building a piece of furniture that would contain a kegerator that would be difficult to change kegs on. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f35/bridging-two-kegs-95316/ I wanted to come back and let...

I'm working on a project that includes a kegerator that will be difficult to gain access to. I'm using the Danby DAR440BL which will hold two 5 gallon cornies but in order to minimize the number of times I need to get inside to change out the kegs, I'd like to bridge them together to...

Well I'm almost ready to do my first AG batch. Does anyone have any suggestions on a good recipe to start with? Maybe something more forgiving or with less steps?

Yesterday I went around to several stores searching for a good deal on a turkey fryer left over after the Thanksgiving rush to use for home brewing. I found a few good deals but none of them came with a pot that had a valve on it for draining oil or other liquids. How important is this...

Lately my friend and I have been considering how pistachios might be used in a beer recipe. We have considered using a pistachio extract of even the raw pistachios themselves. Does anyone have any experience using these or any other kind of nut to flavor their brews? Can you offer any tips...

Hello, this is James from Louisville, KY. I have been home brewing for about 7 years or so and have been looking for a place to discuss techniques and learn a few new things. My experience thus far has been limited to extract brewing but one day I would like to try my hand at all grain. I...
