  I would be interested in getting some Conan. I have a few yeasts on hand I could trade (but
  nothing too exciting) or could pay depending on price. Thanks

  I have to ask, what yeast do you plan to use? also what technique for adding sugar? high ABV
  brews are not as easy as they sound.

  They will work fine for holding already carbed beer. But I wouldn't prime and bottle condition
  in them. They are known to explode from time to time. They are only meant to hold already

  I personally would say mash lower to try and lower your FG. unless you are going for a sweet

  I think since this is my first ipa recipie I'm going to keep it simple. drop the crystal 40
  completely, drop the honey malt to a half pound, up the 2 row 1 pound. mash long and low. I'm

  Thanks everybody for the feedback.Add another oz. to the dryhop, implement a decent post-boil
  hopstand addition, and for god sakes man, please wait to add that Warrior until you have a full
  rolling bo...

  Sounds good guys,I will reduce the honey malt to 1/2 pound. I do want a nice sweetness to the
