    In terms of helping to minimize heat loss in lieu of a coat you can also use blankets. I have a
    fairly large mash tun so I wrap the thing in an old bed comforter and pile an extra blanket or
    two on to...

    1.036 is relatively low, and if you had good aeration and healthy yeast its very possible it
    finished up quickly. You ask if you screwed up...its possible you did very well (except for the
    low OG).Tak...

  • Posted in thread: Adding orange peel to Cream Ale on 03-12-2013 at 07:57 PM
    I brewed a cream ale last year and added lactose and some vanilla. Ended up tasting like cream
    soda, so I'd imagine some orange peel would definitely work well.Keep in mind though a true
    cream ale sho...

    You don't have to wait 1 - 2 weeks for primary. 4 days can be plenty as long as the
    fermentation was complete. If you have a healthy fermentation that can be plenty of time. What
    really matters is the...

    Nice! I'm in!

  • Posted in thread: Consistently higher than expected OG on 09-12-2012 at 01:49 PM
    This shouldn't be an issue as long as your temperatures and ph are where they should be.
    Consistency is a very good thing! I would just adjust your recipes assuming the higher
    efficiency and you shoul...

    My two cents after going all-grain about a year ago...Get at least a 10 gallon stainless kettle
