NEW!
Organic Legacy Double IPA
If
you really like strong beers, and if a standard
IPA just doesn't have enough hop kick for you,
our new organic double IPA is sure to give
you the mouth puckering nose crinkling hop
experience you are looking for. This is a strong,
malty American style IPA bursting with strong
hop bitterness, a vibrant hop aroma, and citrusy
hop flavor. With 6 hop additions and over 5
ounces of organic hops (not counting the optional
2 oz. of dry hops), this IPA is a true legacy
to organic hop growers. We also call it Legacy
DIPA because the original recipe idea came
from Co-op Member AJ, who left our staff to
become the head brewer at Ukiah Brewing Company
in California. For a hoppier aroma, try dry
hopping with organic American Summit, New Zealand
Cascade, or New Zealand Saaz hops (purchase
separately). Contains organic malt extract,
organic corn sugar, organic specialty malts,
organic hops, organic dry malt extract (DME)
for bottling, Irish Moss, recipe, and instructions.
Produces an original gravity of approximately
1.075. IBU's: 80.
Recommended
yeast for this kit: (Not included!
Order separately): Wyeast #1056 American
Ale, White Labs #001 California Ale or #051
California IV. The best dry yeast to use
is Safale S-05
For
yeast descriptions see our yeast selection.
Bottling
sugar options: Try any
kit with organic corn sugar for bottling.
Corn sugar provides a cleaner more neutral
finish with less sediment in the bottle
than DME. Dry malt extract (DME) for bottling
is what we include in most of our kits,
which gives a creamier head, fuller body,
and maltier flavor than corn sugar. If
you do not need bottling sugar, order any
of our kits without it for $1 less.

Organic Hop Arrivals
New
Crop European hops are here! We have limited supplies
of some of these, so now is the time to buy!

|
2009
Fuggles Whole Hops: 4% Ave. AAU. Used
in the finest English style ales for aroma and
flavor, and will infuse a mild hoppy flavor and
pleasant aroma in the best pale ales, bitters,
and browns. The light bitterness and clean hop
flavor and aroma make a good combination with high
alpha hops such as Target or Pacific Gem. A good
substitute for Willamette or Styrian Golding.

2009
Kent Goldings Whole Hops: 7% Avg. AAU.
One of the finest hops in the world, the traditional
old English hop developed in the late 1700's.
Excellent for English style ales and Porters,
this is a mild hop with a pleasant flowery aroma
and a refined flavor. Also suitable for many
Belgian, French, and Scottish ales. Possible
substitutions: US Goldings, First Gold, UK progress.

2009
Belgian Saaz Whole Hops: 5.3% Avg. AAU.
The very mild spicy, earthy aroma hop associated
with European Lagers. This is the hop you will
want for your finest European style Pilsners,
and it will shine in wheat beers and Belgian
style ales. An excellent substitute for Czech
Saaz, US Sterling, or Polish Lublin..

|

Whitbread
Goldings Variety: 6.1% Ave. Alpha. Often
referred to simply as "WGV", this hop
was developed in 1911 from Bates’s Brewer
at the hop farm in Beltring, Kent later owned
by the London brewer Whitbread. WGV is used today
in McMullen’s AK, and is a parent to the
modern First Gold and Progress hop varieties.
Whitbread Goldings Variety is similar to Goldings,
but with a stronger flavor that is pleasant and
hoppy. Produces a sweet, fruity flavor with a
mild, clean bitterness. Good as a distinctive
dry hop with a fruity, mild and clean flavor.
Organically grown in Belgium from English rootstock.
Possible substitutions: UK Kent Golding, UK First
Gold, UK Progress.

New
Varieties!: Organic
Pellet Hops:
American
Fuggles: 6% Ave. Alpha. Grown in Oregon
on a farm that is long established for growing
excellent hops. Despite many years of experience
growing hops conventionally, using organic methods
has been a challenge, requiring a lot of extra
work, but the quality of these hops is definitely
worth the extra effort. A mild and pleasant hop,
with earthy and fruity character that works well
with many different flavors. The light bitterness
and clean hop flavor and aroma make a good combination
with high alpha hops such as Pilgrim or Pacific
Gem. A great choice for hoppy American microbrew
style ales, and works surprisingly well in Belgian
beers. Recommended substitute for UK Fuggle,
Willamette, Styrian Golding, US Tettnang

Belgian
Cascade: 3.2% Ave Alpha. These European
grown Cascade hops are a real treat for brewers
who like the citrus character of Cascade, without
being overpowered by it. A milder version of
Cascade allows you to experience the more subtle
characteristics of this popular breed of hop:
the light flowery aroma with a hint of herbal,
the sweet citrus tones, and overall very clean
flavor. Because of the milder aroma these Cascade
blend well with other hops to help achieve a
nice balanced beer. Good in recipes calling for
Amarillo, Cascade, Centennial, Challenger, or
Chinook.

Pilgrim: 10.2%
Ave. Alpha. A new dual-purpose hop released by
the Horticulture Research Institute at Wye in 2001,
Pilgrim has a pleasant aroma and strong bitterness
content. Because of its high alpha it has been
compared to British Target more than any other
variety, but it has a much hoppier aroma than Target
due to its higher levels of Humulene and Challenger-like
Selinene levels. Exhibits an earthy, spicy, flavor
and pronounced hoppy nose. Also known as Wye Pilgrim.
Organically grown in Belgium from English rootstock.
Possible substitutions: Target, Northdown & Northern
Brewer.

Blue Agave Nectar: 15%
Off
Brewing
with Agave is a lot like brewing with honey. Once
you get past the sticky part, you have an easy way
to add highly fermentable sugar that does not add
much flavor and gives a crsip character to the finished
beer. Great to increase the alcohol content of Mead
and Cider as well. Try 1 to 3 pounds as an adjunct
for 5 gallons, works well with Mexican and American
style lagers, dark lagers, wheat beers, and Saisons.
Can used like honey to make Agave mead, and of course
Agave is well known as the key ingredient in tequila.
Beers and meads fermented with agave in the secondary
fermenter will take on a more pronounced "tequila
flavor". Try it in your next chili beer for
a brew that will really pop with heat and flavor.
Agave
nectar is fructose sugar extracted from the the Blue
Agave cactus that thrive in the volcanic soils of
Southern Mexico. There are over 100 species of Agave,
but the Blue Agave is the most highly prized because
of the high carbohydrate concentration and clean
sweet flavor of the resulting nectar. The taste is
similar to honey, but lighter, with a more intense
sweetness and more neutral flavor. With a lower glycemic
index than most other natural sweeteners, consuming
it is less likely to raise blood sugar or trigger
the body's fat storage mechanisms.

Chicory Root
Chicory
root has long been used as a beverage ingredient.
The roasted root has a coffee like flavor and aroma
which blends well with coffee and chocolate. Chicory
is world famous as the key ingredient in coffee
blends from New Orleans. In brewing use 1 to 8
oz. added at the end of the boil to infuse the
smooth roasted flavor into the brew. Great for
coffee or chocolate stouts, a fine example of a
Chicory beer is Dogfish Head's Chicory Stout. Blends
well with Cacao, coffee, dandelion root, and licorice.
Chicory
contains no caffeine, making it a satisfying alternative
(or additive) to coffee. It imparts less bitterness
than coffee does, and Chicory coffee blends are
noted for thier smooth flavor and low acidity.
Because it is more water soluble than coffee, a
brewed beverage that is half coffee and half chicory
should be made with half the amount of coffee you
would normally use, plus half that amount of chicory
(1 scoop of chicory for every 2 scoops of coffee).
Since
ancient times chicory has been used for liver disorders,
and promoting health of the urinary system and
kidneys. Consuming chicory can stimulate the cleansing
of the body and enhances toxins removal. Medical
research has shown it can reduce the heart rate,
thus it can help counteract the stimulating effect
of caffeine when blended with coffee. #OS8

Organic
Elder Flower (dried)
Elder
flowers have long been used in beverage recipes,
bringing the light fragrant scent of a summer garden
and refreshing floral herbal flavor to world renowned
beverages such as St. Germaine. To this day many
still make the traditional elderflower champagne,
which is simply a light sparkling herbal wine made
with elderflowers and sugar. The aromatic character
of elderflower pairs well with summer ales, Saisons,
light wheat beers, or a twist on a Witbier. It
blends well with citrus thus it is worth a try
in a hoppy IPA to compliment the citrus flavors.
For homebrewing 5 gallon recipes, use 1 to 2 oz.
in the boil for a unique floral flavor and herbal
bitterness, or steep 1 to 4 oz. at the end of the
boil to infuse the delicate aromatic flavor of
elder flower into a homebrew. Can also be used
in the secondary fermenter in the same maner as
dry hopping, or create an infusion with vodka,
strain, and add at bottling.
Elder
flowers have diuretic, laxative, anti-inflammatory
and antiviral properties. In traditional herbal
medicine, elderflowers are used to treat allergies,
colds, and other respiratory ailments. It is also
commonly used to treat fungal and ear infections,
and drinking elder flower tea can help in detoxification
of the body by promoting perspiration and urine
production. #OS6

Sarsparilla
Sarsparilla
is famous as the main ingredient in the beverage
of the same name, and is also an essential flavor
in most root beer recipes. For brewing it adds
a pleasant aromatic root beer flavor that works
well in dark beers or good old fashioned brewed
from scratch root beer. Use 1 to 2 oz per gallon
added to the boil for the last 20 to 30 minutes.
Combines well with chicory, dandelion root, ginger,
juniper, licorice, and anise.
Sarsaparilla
root has been used for centuries by the indigenous
peoples of Central and South America for sexual
impotence, rheumatism, skin ailments, and as a
general tonic for physical weakness. Sarsaparilla
has historically been used in herbal medicine to
treat liver disease, and syphilis, and as a general
tonic and blood purifier. #OS14

Heather Tips & Flowers
Heather
Tips are an essential ingredient in traditional
Scottish Heather Ale. Use in the boil to add bitterness,
or at the end of the boil for the distinct floral
Heather flavor and aroma. Heather adds an earthy,
herbal flavor and a light floral peat moss and
fresh mown hay aroma. In the boil, heather will
add some bitterness- Heather was actually outlawed
at one point in England because the Scots used
Heather for bittering instead of importing English
hops. Heather can also be added to the secondary
fermenter, or used as a filter bed for the mash
runoff. Use 1 oz. to 8 oz. during the boil or in
the secondary fermentor. Heather has been used
in traditional medicine to treat urinary & kidney
problems, and has mild sedative properties. #OS24

Grapefruit Peel
Grapefruit
peel is an excellent substitute for bitter orange
peel in a Belgian Wit. The dried peel retains much
of the grapefruit characteristic which compliments
beers hopped with a citrus character. Try this
in Saison, IPA, or a holiday spiced beer. With
the characteristic bitter and sweet flavors grapefruit
can add just the right zing your your next special
recipe. Use 1/4 to 1 oz. in the boil for more bitterness,
or steep at the end of the boil or in the secondary
fermenter for a sweeter taste. Grapefruit peel
is a rich source of Vitamin C and antioxidant nutrients,
most notably lycopene, which has been shown in
a Harvard Medical Center study to reduce the risk
of prostate cancer. #OS23

Organic
Hibiscus Flower
Hibiscus
is a pleasant flavor that goes well in fermented
beverages when a sweet, fruity tart flavor is a
desired quality. Has a rose/floral aroma and a
sweet tartness with cherries and citrus.This works
well in lighter ales such as Saisons, wheats, or
mild ales. This is also an outstanding flavor in
meads, ciders, and fruit wines. The color of hibiscus
is ruby red, and in quantities over 1 oz per gallon
the effect on the color of the finished beer can
be significant- most often the finished beer will
have a pink hue. Use 1/2 oz to 8 oz. for a 5 gallon
batch depending on the effect desired. Studies
have shown that drinking hibiscus tea can effectively
lower high blood pressure and reduce high cholesterol
levels in many individuals. Hibiscus is high in
vitamin C and antioxidents, and has been used in
many cultures over the centuries as a healthy tea
drink which some find helpful for weight loss.

New: FreshRoast
SR Series Coffee Roasters: From $109.90
The
long awaited new model coffee roaster from Freshbeans has
arrived in our warehouse. There are actually 2 models.
Both models have double the capacity of the Freshroast
Plus
8 model- up to 120 grams or or about a quarter of a pound
per roast cycle. Some other design improvements include
a digital timer, a better chaff collecting basket, and
the roasting jar has an improved base that will not overheat
with dark roasts, which caused problems with warping in
the previous model. The SR series roasters are quiet so
you can hear the crackling of the beans,
and the small chamber and fan make this one of the more
energy
efficient
coffee roasters on the market.
The
SR300 is a basic, no frills roaster which
is a great for beginners roaster with a preset temperature
setting and an adjustable
digital timer. The maximum time to set the timer is 9.9
minutes. At any point during the roast sequence you can
add 6 seconds with each tap of the button. Time can
be subtracted using the same method. The timer can be overridden
by tapping the "Cool" button, causing the roaster
to go into the cooling
mode for 3 minutes. When you purchase this roaster from us, we one pound of organic
Fair Trade green coffee beans which you can choose from
our wide selection.
FreshRoast
SR-300 Roaster + 1 lb. coffee: $109.90 
The
SR500 has 2 additional features which
give the user a great deal of control over the roast
cycle.
With the adjustable fan speed control you can speed
up the fan speed for heavier, more dense coffee, to make
sure the beans are agitated enough to roast evenly.
For green
beans with less moisture content, a lower fan speed
will keep the temperature high. The fan speed can be
adjusted at any time during the cycle. We really like
the ability to start a cycle with the fan set to high
to dry out the beans. As the coffee loses water and becomes
lighter during the roast cycle, turning the fan speed
down will allow the roast chamber to retain more heat,
speeding up the roasting time- a good feature to prevent
over baking really dark roasts. The SR500 also has three
temperature settings that can be adjusted any time during
the roasting process:
High
temp. = 490 degrees
Medium temp. = 455 degrees
Low temp. = 390 degrees
When
you purchase this roaster from us, we include 5 pounds
of organic and Fair Trade green coffee beans. You can choose
between a single type of coffee or a 5 lb. sampler. FreshRoast
SR-500 Roaster + 5 lb. coffee: $159.90

Toasted Cacao Nibs
Certified
organic and Fair Trade from Ecuador. Cacao nibs are
the pure and raw form of chocolate with nothing
added. The nibs are the flavorful inner part of the cacao
bean that are cured after gathering and then carefully
roasted to bring out the full chocolate flavor and aroma.
Chocolate, cocoa and cocoa butter are made from cacao beans.
They are great for brewing cocoa flavored beer, wine, mead,
or liquors. Cacao nibs are also great to snack on! If you
like dark, bittersweet chocolate, you might have to be
careful
because these can be addicting!
The
nibs can also be coarsely ground and added to coffee or
brewed like coffee on their own for an amazing chocolate
drink. In brewing, they can be added directly to the
boil, or added to the secondary fermentor and allowed to
steep for 5 to 10 days. If used in the boil, some of the
natural bitterness of the pure cacao will be extracted,
and with a little R & D they can be used to replace some
of the bittering hops in a recipe. The cacao flavor is
naturally great in porters and stouts, but the possibilities
are many.. try a cocoa Nut Brown or Celebration Ale, or
perhaps a rustic red...
Cacao
contains high levels of suffer and Magnesium plus many
other trace minerals and compounds. Cacao is known to trigger
feelings of love and happiness due to high levels of phenylethylamine,
and to diminish appetite due to high levels of MAO
inhibitors (monoamine oxidase enzyme inhibitors). Cacao
has diuretic properties and has been used as an aid for
high blood pressure because it helps improve circulation
and dilation of blood vessels.

New: Certified
Organic Irish Moss!
Irish
Moss (Chondrus crispus, also called Carrageen moss) is
a seaweed commonly found in the North Atlantic. It is widely
used in beer making as a clarifying agent.
When Irish Moss is added during the boil it causes proteins
to clump together, which makes them heavy enough
to fall
to the
bottom of the
kettle with the rest of the trub. Our
organic Irish Moss is harvested from a protected area
on the
shores
of Nova Scotia in Canada. Harvesters hand-rake the marine
plants under closely controlled conditions to ensure purity,
freshness and
to safeguard the natural resource. The producer utilizes
all natural processing methods to produce a clean, chemical
free product.
Irish
moss was once a prized ingredient in traditional herbal
medicines. Aside from the average 80% natural pectin (unrefined
carrageenan) content Irish Moss is rich in calcium, sulpher,
bromine, potassium,
magnesium, and sodium.
It can be used as a natural pectin source for jams and
jellies. When boiled in water it will completely dissappear,
and then form a jelly when cold if the concentration is
high enough. Because it is very easy to digest and its
high nutrient content, Irish Moss can be used for digestive
problems, diarrhea,
as a laxative,
and to treat ulcers. In the Carribean,
Irish Moss is made into a thick drink flavored with spices
such as ginger and cinnamon, which is widely believed to
have aphrodesiac properties.

Ranco
Digital Temperature Controller: $99
The
Ranco digital temperature controller is a full featured,
programmable thermostat that controls temperatures from
-30 oF to 220 oF. Features a submersible
remote sensor probe with an 8 foot cable and a liquid crystal
display that shows the exact temperature at the probe.
Features the ability to set the differential (the temperature
range at which the cooling or heating unit starts and stops)
from 1 to 30 oF. By setting the differential
to a higher range, you can save energy and wear and tear
on your refrigerator compressor. In addition to its use
with a refrigerator or freezer, the digital controller
can also control any electric heating device. Just like
the mechanical temperature controller, no wiring is required-
just plug the controller into any 110 volt outlet, plug
the device you want to control into the digital controller,
and run the sensor cord inside the space you want to be
controlled. Instructions included. #FE22b

Beer Gun, plus included accessories
 Accessory
kit for Beer Gun 
|
The
Beer Gun Bottle Filler:
$69.90
The
BeerGun from Blichmann Engineering is a revolutionary
new bottle filler that eliminates the complication and
time-consuming operation and cleaning of traditional counter
pressure (CP) bottle fillers used to fill bottles from
kegs. The Quiescent Flow Technology of the BeerGuneliminates
the complication of CP fillers, while maintaining the primary
function – purging a bottle with CO2
(no oxygen pick-up) and filling it with minimal foaming
and carbonation loss.
Features intuitively obvious operation, easy sanitation
procedures, and ability to fill
any depth bottle
without
modification makes this filler a clear standout. Instead
of pressurizing a bottle to keg pressure like CP fillers
do to reduce foaming – with all its complicated
valving and cumbersome operation this filler gradually reduces
the beer from keg pressure to atmospheric pressure with little
turbulence. The result is a consistent
bottle fill with little foaming and no oxygen pick-up.
Foaming is caused predominantly by turbulence and sudden
changes in pressure. The unique design of the BeerGun eliminates
the need to pressurize the bottle by providing a non-throttling,
quick-acting valve placed at the BOTTOM of the filler stem,
and a beer delivery system that is very low in turbulence.
All current designs use a valve at the TOP of the filler.
Placing the valve at the bottom not only allows the valve
to be quickly immersed in the beer, further reducing pressure
change and turbulence, it keeps the stem full of beer at
all times. Traditional fillers, or filling from a tap with
a hose, forces the beer down an empty tube each time, kicking
up foam along the way.
And since the beer is sealed in the filler stem when the
BeerGunTM is removed from the bottle, it automatically provides
a consistent bottle fill level when the stem is removed!
These features, coupled with a CO2 jacketing tube for bottle
purging, and ergonomic valve actuators, means filling a bottle
is faster, intuitively obvious, more accurate, and easier
than ever before! And since a pressurizing stopper isn’t
required, you can fill any depth bottle without buying different
stem lengths or adding plastic hose extensions.
With the BeerGun, filling a
bottle is as simple as pushing a valve for CO2 purge, and
then pulling a trigger for beer.
Beer
Gun Accessory Kit: $19.90
This
optional accessory kit provides everything you
need to get your BeerGun up and running! A liquid
ball-lock disconnect, a 5ft length of hose for
your CO2 line with 1/4" stainless flare
connectors on each end, one stainless 1/4" disconnect
and stainless clamp (for the 10ft beer hose that
comes with the BeerGun), and a brass 1/4" NPT
X 1/4" flare adapter for connecting to the
CO2 valve on the BeerGun. #KEGB1A |

NEW! Aeropress
Coffee Maker: $29.90
We
have discovered a new way to make great tasting coffee
fast, and we're hooked. The Aero Press was developed
by Aerobie, a company local to our area that is well
known for the ring shaped frisbees they also make. It
is notable that the press is entirely manufactured here
in the USA. Although similar in appearance to a French
press, there are some key variations in the way coffee
is brewed with the Aeropress that make the resulting
coffee much different.
The
Aeropress has two main parts, the outer chamber with
the filter on the bottom, and the inner plunger with
a thick rubber gasket which provides a snug, airtight
seal. This forces air through the wet coffee grounds
which results in a fast extraction time. Because the
grounds need only a very short contact time with hot
water less bitter compounds are released from the coffee.
The result is a very smooth tasting cup of coffee with
measurably lower acidity. The Areopress uses paper filters
which eliminates the grit which is usually produced with
a French press.
The
high temperature polycarbonate and polypropelene plastics
used to make the Aeropress are FDA approved for cooking
at boiling temperatures. The filters are cheap, oxygen
bleached, and compostable. A package of 350 filters and
a zippered nylon carry sack are included in the purchase
price. Additional filters sold separately.
