Food So Has Anyone Brewed Beer Before?

Doing wood chips from the barrels can work too.

really? sounds like it would result in some kind of slight difference...

 

[Mean Mr. Mustard]

As long as the wood chips are from the inside of the barrel, it should produce the same results, Id think

It's how a lot of home brewers do small batches.

Nope that's how it's done sir!

We've brewed a few of those clones.

edit: In fact, we've got somewhat of a riff on Pliny waiting to be moved into secondary right now.

So I think I'm going to start brewing this summer. Finally have room to do it, and I've been wanting to learn for a while. I've been reading the online version of the How To Brew... and I think I'll probably get the most recent version that goes into a little more detail, but I want to learn the ins and outs of it, experiment, figure out what I like and don't like, see if I can come up with something different. Possibly even grow my own hops.

 

[thintoast]

Probably not hops this year, as it's a bit late in the season to grow them...

Just do it. You can seriously get into the hobby for about $200 depending on what you already have on hand. Just start saving bottles. You'll need about 60 (to be safe) 12oz bottles, or less if you just do bombers which is my suggestion because it's less work.

edit: And if you mean, How To Brew by Palmer, well that shit is gospel. Church

The senility has set in. Sad.

When you hit 65 in three years do you get the depends and ensure in bulk?

if you're going to brew your own beer, the general consensus from my beer brewing friends is that you do it for the experience. Not to produce an exceptional beer (because you wont), or to save money (because you wont).

Ah Ha! We've brewed many exceptional beers!
