Ask Mr. Wizard Steeping vs mashing Q I'm a novice homebrewer, but I have spent a considerable amount of time reading Brew Your Own and various how-to-homebrew books. One thing that continues to confuse me is this: What exactly is the difference between mashing and steeping? Don't both procedures basically involve soaking grain in hot water? A Mashing and steeping are very similar processes at first glance. Both involve soaking crushed grains in hot water. However, if you look more closely, there are some sharp contrasts between the two methods.   Read More Project The DIY In-Line Oxygenator As homebrewers, we have control over many of the physical processes used to make our beer. It's been known for some time that after boiling (and then chilling the wort) it is highly beneficial for the yeast to be pitched to a well aerated/oxygenated media. The fermentation life cycle (and ultimately the beer quality) will benefit in the following ways.

We don't know when these two classic products of human ingenuity were first served together, but it likely occurred more than a thousand years ago. They are just as satisfying together today, and making them fits well together for the home hobbyist, too. Read more Ask Mr. Wizard Beer Spicing Decisions Q I am planning to brew Dixie Cup Boardwalk Belgian Quadrupel from the byo website. I am wondering if I add spices and raisins at the end of the boil will there be enough time for the aroma compounds to dissolve into the wort before cooling with a plate chiller? A  A flavor extraction is almost always influenced by particle size. Indeed, the only times this is not true is when the compounds of interest are not soluble in the solvent being used for the extraction. In brewing, there are really two solvents of practical interest. Water is the solvent at play during the production of wort, and beer, or water + ethanol, is the solvent when ingredients are added to beer.    Read more Project Build a Portable Keg Cooler My family and I go camping every summer with a group of friends in New Braunfels, Texas during Memorial and Labor Day weekends. A couple of years ago, one of my friends' brothers found out that I homebrewed and he kept asking me when I was going to bring some of my beer so he could try it out. I told him that I don't like to bottle but I would bring a keg on our next trip as long as he kept it iced down. I took a typical 5-gallon (19-L) Corny keg on Labor Day 2014 and we laid it horizontal in a 90-quart (85-L) ice chest packed with ice. The setup worked OK but when the keg was half empty we had to prop it up so it wouldn't blow out CO2. Of course, standing it up meant that now the lid was half open on the ice chest so the ice was quickly melting. Read more *Free Trial Terms and Conditions: For new members and subscribers only.
