i've had approval from three beer geeks that have tried this brew and have had one non beer geek offer to buy the ingredients if i would brew them a batch.

thanks for looking!

cheers.

my brewing mentor (barefootbrewer) tasted my beer for the first time last night and he really liked it. he said that he could not tell it was a homebrew!

i'll be brewing this again for the emerald coast beer festival.

Congrats on the awards. My most recent IPA is a few days from being done and I will be placing it into a cornie to pressurize. I may also mark this thread for future reference and theft of your recipe. Only kidding ya know.

You don't have a problem using the recipe since it is posted, RIGHT?

Anyway...... Congrats again.

Salute!

i'm brewing ten gallons of this sunday. back to back 5 gallon batches. one for me and one for emerald coast beer festival!

Is the ringwood ale yeast a slow yeast? Mine has still be slowly bubbling (1-2/min) and I'm going on 3 weeks so far. I transferred to secondary after 2 weeks to dry hop. I've had both primary and secondary at 68 degrees the entire time. I'll have to check gravity here soon to see how close it is to being finished. I wonder if this is due to not using a starter? I pitched directly from the smack pack.

i also pitched directly from the smack pack and without a starter and i had airlock activity the up until i racked it to secondary to dry hop it.

i probably could have left it longer, but impatience got the best of me.

did you brew this same beer?

shimbii · 07-30-2009, 07:45 PM

Yes... I brewed the recipe out of extreme brewing which i think is basically the same thing. I'll just have to be patient and wait it out until it stops. 3 weeks and still going and I'm beginning to wonder. I just bumped ferm temp up to 73 so we'll see if that helps speed things up.
