I Finally Nailed it

**Moose777** · 07-08-2009, 05:01 AM

After several AG batches with decent results, I finally nailed one...a "Big River Brown" from Midwest ..all grain..

Keged it few days ago and just tried it...with only a few days in the keg and 3 1/2 weeks from the day i brewed it it tastes incredible..

I'm going to try to kkeep my paws off of it for another week or so..

Brewed a Night Cap Cherry Stout today and hit just over 80% brewhouse efficiency..

This site ROCKS!

I wanna do another cherry stout or possibly even strawberry at some point in the future. I had bottle bombs last time I tried that and haven't tried again since

My first stout today, it was incredible to see the first runnings...the refractometer was reading 20 brix..lol, stuff was like old motor oil..can't wait to taste it...used 2 smack packs of Wyeast 1028..
The cherry extract flavoring is supposed to be added at kegging

1.06 OG into fermenter..largest beer ever for me to date
