Cherokee Nation (American Indian Brown Ale) According to recipe author Gordon Strong, "This is a brown IPA, which is my normal IPA recipe with the addition of some darker malts and using brown sugar instead of honey. It uses late hopping for bitterness and adds the darker malts during the sparge, both of which should cut down on the clash of malt/hops that can happen in hoppy darker beers."

All Aboard for Gourds Pumpkin beers get a bad rap nowadays. I think it's a natural backlash to over-exposure, since they went from a highly-anticipated fall seasonal beer to a faddish trend about ten years ago. Many breweries jumped on the bandwagon looking to cash in on the latest craze, and a lot of commercial products were ill-conceived and poorly executed.

Temporary hardness vs. permanent hardness in brewing water Q What is the difference between temporary hardness and permanent hardness. I'm only 36, and we're not talking Viagra here! We are talking brewing water.
A The most basic difference between hard and soft water is that hard water reacts with soap to form solid soap scum, and soft water does not form soap scum. The formation of soap scum on your skin is the reason that soap seems easier to rinse from your body when you shower with hard water.

Industrial-style Pedestal Tower: Building a tap tower with black pipe My beer brewing started in 2002 with a Mr. Beer kit. While the Mr. Beer plastic bottles were handy, they weren't glamorous. So, I added some bottling equipment and bottled a few batches in glass bottles. Unfortunately, the collecting of bottles, multi-step cleaning, and two-week wait for bottles to carbonate were more than I wanted to deal with. I began researching home draft systems.

Big Island Brewhaus' Golden Sabbath clone Stylistically, Golden Sabbath can be considered a slightly fuller-bodied Belgian golden strong ale. The use of local Hawaiian honey in place of traditional Belgian candi sugar provides body, a silky texture, and an inviting aroma.

It's a trend we've seen for some time, but in the past decade it has taken a giant leap.
There may be no group of products that illustrate this better than electric countertop, all-in-one homebrewing systems.

A Beer's Changing Flavor Profile Q I have brewed a Founders Brewing Co.'s Breakfast Stout clone from the BYO Big Book of Clone Recipes every year when it gets cold outside. It is fantastic and find it gets very close to Founders' version. I brew the recipe exactly as printed using cocoa nibs and Kona and Sumatran coffees. One thing I have noticed is that the Founders' beer seems to have a very consistent flavor profile with a nice balance of the chocolate and coffee while the chocolate and coffee flavors in my homebrewed version change dramatically over a period of about three months. In the beginning, the coffee flavor is dominant and it can be difficult to taste any chocolate. After a few weeks the coffee calms down and a milk chocolate flavor starts to appear. After a few more weeks the coffee flavor turns really earthy and the chocolate flavor turns dry and almost bitter. Is there a way to stabilize these flavors?

EZ Scrub Cleaner I have been brewing on an all-electric system for quite a while and cleaning the stainless steel heating element has remained troublesome. The baked on residue was hard to get off. I tried many things to make cleaning the element easy and effective and all were what I considered failures since I wanted the element shining like new. But the combination of failures led to a simple, cheap, no-hand-scrubbing solution.
