    Put AE in the secondary and rack to it from the primary. Then wait about two weeks. Check the

    Bottling at 1.020 is too high. It'd you add priming sugar you might have gushers or bottle
    bombs. If possible wait it out for a bit longer. Check the website of the year mfg'r to see the
    SG range. My ...

    Sounds like you are good to go. I copied this recipe from a BYO magazine a long time ago. But
    not sure why this recipe calls for Irish moss. I copied it verbatim.I certainly agree with its
    omission.Yo...

    I needed a blow-off on my secondary. It bubbled like crazy for a week.You are only one besides
    myself who say they needed a blow off.

    I can definitely taste the "grassy" part will it dissipate in time or here to stay? Ordering
    the stuff to do it again today maybe dry hop for 1 week instead of 2... still good beer and
    very drinkableY...

    Good you found some.

    Ah, that's good to know - thanks. So, it seems as though my substitutions are going to be
    reasonably good, apart from the rice hulls?I will take another look and see if I can get
    those.. they might be...

    First off worth noting rice hulls are not rice. It's the outer jacket of rice kernel. It's used
    to keep the grist from clumping.I don't know about using torrified wheat, I don't know how
    similar it is...

    Nice color, your beer will look nice in the glass. It will have commercial quality visually.
    Damn if it won't taste better.

    Thanks for the 1oz advice. I see that is what was in the OP but I was unsure if using a German
    noble hop would change the amount.I see no sign of secondary fermentation 12 hours after
    transfer with th...

He who drinks beer gets drunk.

He who gets drunk goes to sleep.

He who sleeps does not sin.

So lets drink and go to heaven!!!

My wife keeps hounding me about drinking more water. I told her that beer is 85% water and 15% love... how the hell could I possibly be dehydrated from that? I must not be drinking enough!
