• Posted in thread: Filter/Strainer for Plate Chiller on 02-01-2012 at 06:34 PM
  I just don't like the idea of boiling the nylon or cleaning it afterward. I know there's extra
  cleaning involved with the filter and plate chiller, but adding a laundry component to my
  brewday makes m...

  I'd be reluctant to use something that size for my boil additions. When I dry hop with pellets
  in bags the expansion is always surprising. I feel like I've gotten a lot better hop charecter
  after ditc...

• Posted in thread: Filter/Strainer for Plate Chiller on 01-31-2012 at 06:13 PM
  I'm looking at ordering a plate chiller but I'm waffling on whether to use a Hop Rocket as an
  inline filter, or spend that same money on an inline strainer from Brewer's Hardware. I'd like
  to go the v...

• Posted in thread: Brewhemoth - Which Fittings on 11-20-2011 at 01:19 AM
  I'm looking to order the tri clover fittings for my recently ordered brehemoth and am wondering
  what the best valve/set up is for the side port were I assume the beer will be pulled from to
  go to the ...

• Posted in thread: Brown Malt in Robust Porter? on 11-15-2010 at 05:16 PM
  I just wasn't sure if that was apppropriate in a Robust vs. Brown porter as I never see it in
  Robust recipes. I'll up the % and give it a go.On a side note, I was checking out your blog
  when I was con...

• Posted in thread: Brown Malt in Robust Porter? on 11-15-2010 at 02:42 AM
  Is brown malt appropriate in a robust porter? I'd like to add some depth to mine and I'm
  thinking of adding it at about 5%. Thoughts?

• Posted in thread: Dry APA - Denny's 1450 or S-05 on 11-05-2010 at 09:04 PM
  I just did a porter with the 1450 and it turned out excellent yeast wise. A little heavy on the
  bittering, though....I think I'll try mashing at 149 and go with the 1450. I've already got it
  and we'll...

  Oops, yes, I meant S-05. I'm not so worried about the attenuation, more about the silky
  mouthfeel it seems to give the beer. I'm not sure if a dry tasting beer is possible with 1450.

• Posted in thread: Dry APA - Denny's 1450 or S-05 on 11-05-2010 at 06:38 PM
  I'm going to be brewing an APA this weekend that I'd like to be somewhat dry w/ a little malt
  flavor poking through the amarillo/cascade mix. It'll be about 1.050 & 34IBUs. I can reuse some
  of the Den...

• Posted in thread: I never use soap on 10-22-2010 at 06:33 PM
  I only use hot water and a soft rag or sponge whenever possible. Every 6-8 brews I'll scrub my
  kettles down with some bar keepers friend, and if need be I'll soak my carboy/bucket with
  oxycleen.I've n...
