People in the Rhode Island / South Coast MA area - Where do you get your CO2 tanks refilled? Will any Paintball supply store re-fill them for you?

I have a couple kegs of brew in my kegerator right now, but i'm thinking about lagering in the same fridge and i'd need to take the kegs out to make room. The question is - will it kill the beer's flavor after cooling, warming, then cooling the kegs again?

I am almost ready to brew my 3rd AG batch, and i've had a lot of success with Batch Sparging. Can I use this technique any time I brew? More specifically, I am brewing NB's Phat Tyre clone (10 lbs of grain). I don't brew anything crazy (grain bill is usually below 12 lbs) so I'd like to...

Hey ya'll, it's been a while since i've hit the forums heavily... but i'm back and i've got a question. I've got a gallon of mead that looks like it's ready to be bottled. Should I rack this and let sit for a few weeks, or is it ok to go to bottles? Also, any suggestions as to how much...

I was in New Orleans earlier this summer and I loved Abita Amber. Anyone have a good recipe for this delicious concoction?

I'm brewing a batch of NB's English IPA. Came with: 2 oz UK Kent Golding 1 oz Yakima Magnum I've got 1/2 oz each of Saaz and Tettnang. Would it hurt the IPA to add both these? I just dont see myself using these hop pellets anytime soon, and i've had them since March. Also, the hops...

I would like to bottle 1/4 of my batch of cider and keg the remaining amount. Is there any real complication to doing this process?

Alright! I feel good. 4 extracts under my belt, and now 1 AG! I used Ed Wort's Haus ale recipe and right now it's going crazy (fermented in less than 12 hours). I missed the og by a few points (1.048 was my final) and I ended up with a bit less than 5 gallons (I'd say i was off by 1/2...

Someone spammed a Facebook group with this product. I think it's just a waste of money. http://sedexbrewing.com/

Needless to say, I didn't rush to click the link.

Wooohoo! Mine was deposited today... What to do with it now??:drunk:

I made my first oatmeal chocolate stout the other day (Saturday) and everything went off without a hitch. OG was 1.060, a bit higher than expected but still no worries there. Now, it's fermenting and the yeast layer seems to have settled in the middle of my fermenter. I switched the blow off...

I was originally going to make a Chocolate Vanilla stout, but after reading around I decided to convert the recipe into an Oatmeal stout. Going to make this an extract recipe. I want to make this smooth and mildly bitter with some sweetness. Cold-steeping caught my eye in one of the posts...

I'm really itchin to start Cheeses' VCCA and right now I have a starter going on the stirplate. I left it on overnight (round midnight) and the stirbar ended up off balance in the morning. I turned it off and back on again and now 8 hours later I have a little layer of foam and lots of bubbles...

Well, it's too late to ask but here's what I did. - 1.4832 lb brown sugar (yes, i measured it on a scale :-) ) - Topped that off with some pure crystalline fructose I had at work, so all together 2 lbs of sugar. - 2.5 gallon organic apple cider - 1.5 gallon organic apple juice, no...

I am looking to start transfering my brew into the secondary so i've prepped everything to be sanitized. I'm a little worried though - I made a 5 gallon solution of OneStep into my 5 gal bucket. I have used it once ,but I didn't rinse it since then so it looks like there was a little residual...
