Hello my fellow homebrewers. I was wondering if anyone had or knows of a CBD infused Beer....like a Lager or Pale Ale. Looking for something that has that dank aroma to it. I appreciate everyones help with this. Cheers!

When using tap water (Albuquerque) I’ve had to use up to 10 ml of Lactic acid to bring down my pH. It’s very hard water here. And yes augiedoggy... ive read that some Brewers with a no sparge system add around an extra 2 pounds of base malt to compensate. But I love my 4 hour brew days!!!!

Hello all. I Need help. I made a dunkleweizen that finished fermenting a few days ago. I’ve had it sitting in carboy for at least another week. Checked it today and the temp showing on the temp sticker was at 86F! Seems My temp controlled freezer stopped working and the heating fan was on. Has...
