Pumpkin beer

My home brew is sitting in my room (constant temperature) in a white, plastic fermenter. Would having my ceiling light on "skunk" the beer like it would with a glass or clear fermenter?
You have two things going for you. First, the milky plastic doesn't pass much light. Second, your ceiling light isn't all that bright. [...]

I want to start brewing beer and my girlfriend is objecting saying that it will make the house smell bad during the fermentation process. Is this true or can I tell her to 'stick it up her nose'
I have brewed many beers, and the only time it can smell is during the initial boiling [...]

I used a batch with crown seals and the beer is flat. I'd been told the glass is quite thin so I was quite careful….Maybe i should have hit them a lot harder !
You can't get a good enough seal with those twist top caps.

I need the best Beer Brewing book in print.
The Complete Joy of Homebrewing, by Charlie Papazian, is widely accepted as the best beginner's book for home brewing (and even for non-beginners!). Papazian is the founder of the American Homebrewers Assocation, and is probably the biggest name in homebrewing in the world.
The second best [...]

I'm not real knowledgable about making beer, but [...]

I've never been really impressed with any of the root beer extracts, so I would like to make root beer from scratch. Any suggestions?
I have never done this, but I have made beer and this guy really knows what he's talking about.

You would think that making a metal can would cost more than making a glass bottle. Is it really more expensive to make bottles or it is a supply/demand thing?
Actually, all of these answers are sort of wrong.
First off, if you look in the beer cooler at your local beer store, cans and bottles of [...]

I am also looking for a Hefeweizen to make that isn't too sweet. Also, would a simple wit achieve this?
As other posters noted, this is absolutely the easiest homebrew to make! One of the attributes that makes this beer so easy is that the extract brewer can compete very well with an all [...]
