Uncommon Common - California Common Anchor Brewing Company has always been very generous to homebrewers. This recipe makes a beer similar in flavor to Anchor Steam, but a bit bigger in mouthfeel, hops and malt flavors. If you want a beer a bit drier and more like Anchor Steam, eliminate the Munich, Victory and pale chocolate malts.

Create Your Own Great Porter Do you remember the movie "Johnny Dangerously"? Johnny walks into his mother's apartment and asks, "Whatcha cookin' Ma?" His mother says "Beer." Johnny replies, "With noodles, good idea." This seemed funny at the time, but as I designed my own recipes over the years, the line took on a new significance. It grew into a philosophy regarding the nature of beer making.

Equipping a kegerator with gas on the outside Q I have a kegerator with two taps on top. Inside I can easily fit two Cornelius kegs plus a 5-pound CO2 cylinder. However, I recently started nitrogenating some of my beers, which requires another cylinder (slightly larger than the CO2 cylinder). I also sometimes have three kegs of beer that I want to refrigerate, or perhaps two kegs and a carboy in secondary fermentation. I would like to drill a couple of holes in the side of my kegerator so that I can keep the gas cylinders outside the kegerator, leaving more space for beer inside. My wife is concerned that the kegerator will leak cold air, and thus increase our electricity consumption. What is the best way to accomplish this while satisfying my wife's concerns?
A There is something about homebrewing that seems to result in debates about the home. The most frequent seems to involve brewers commandeering the kitchen and leaving it a wreck. This, however, is the first dispute over BTUs and homebrewing that I have been sent for comment.

Double Pipe Wort Chiller The selection and performance of wort chillers (heat exchangers) is a generally well-documented topic in homebrewing. However, most of the information available on wort chillers applies to the use of immersion, coiled counterflow and brazed plate chillers. An alternative design commonly used industrially that is not widespread in homebrewing is the double pipe heat exchanger.

Bottle Carbonation and Conditioning Nothing in life is as uncomfortable as getting something right and then blowing it at the end. Losing at the finish line after running a great race. Dropping a piece of pizza in the brief-but-chasm-like distance between the oven and your plate. It's in that spirit that, today, we take a thorough look at what finishing the brewing process really looks like: Successfully carbonating and conditioning your beer in a bottle.

Digging Into Seltzer Nutrients Q I've been making hard seltzers using the base instructions you provided in the March-April 2020 issue of BYO. But I've been thinking about trying to branch out and start to play around with the base recipe, like changing the ABV, yeast selection, and sugar source. One thing I'm struggling with is YAN (yeast assimilable nitrogen) and FAN (Free amino nitrogen) levels. I now understand the difference between the two, but I'm still hearing conflicting numbers for recommended levels and the fact that many nutrients (like the Wyeast beer nutrient blend and the Yeastex product you list) don't list the YAN/FAN contribution. Do those levels change with different ABV levels or yeast strains? I know in my heart I should just go and trust your recommended dosages, but where's the fun in that?

Build a Keg Lid Carbonator Kegs, those old soda containers made by Cornelius, Firestone, and Spartanburg, appear in many brew houses around the time the brewer thinks "I really hate bottling," "I'm serious about this hobby," or "my brother's birthday party is around the corner."
