i did timed Pelleted hop additions cause i wanted to be cool and i hear you get better aroma.
Its in the Fermenator right now and it smelt like fresh hoppy sugar cereal pouring it in but yeah i have some clue of what i was doing but i was mostly just throwing in the kitchen sink got a OG of 1.095

Here is a video link to watch the Evil monster that i will drink no matter what it tastes like

Looks like a descent RIS. The only thing I would worry about is the windsor yeast fermenting this thing out enough. It may end up pretty sweet.

So you boiled 6 gallons for 90 minutes and only lost 1/2 gallon. I lose more than that in 60 minutes.

I did something similar to this, but only in a 2.5 gallon batch. Is that a 6 gallon carboy with 5.5 gallons in it? That is not enough headspace in my opinion.

Good Luck!!

I couldn't agree more.

It will still be beer. Probably very sweet, but beer just the same.

Every year or so I end up making a "Kitchen Sink Stout" with is a mix of just about anything I have left over that didn't make it in a batch. I have yet to be disappointed, but I also try and stick to the style a little more.

You crazy californians...

Probably will be tasty, but I think it is more of a Baltic Porter in looks than a Russian Imperial Stout. But with that yeast, and all those hops, I guess it is a RIS. I have to agree with the above, the weak link here is probably the yeast. You could pitch another packet or two.

Smart move with the blow off, but I agree, next time use a bigger carboy :D
But congrats, you've made...beer.

i dunno if you can plead insanity though... too neat of notes. you must let us know how it turns out though some of us may go crazy wit u muhahahaha

I bet it will be tasty...and at the very worst, drinkable. When it's ready, send one East!
