would this work for the munich: http://www.northernbrewer.com/brewing/brewing-ingredients/malt-extract/malt-syrup/northern-brewer-amber-malt-syrup-1.html

Hey I don't have any brewing software at all so I was just wondering. If an AG recipe called for 5 lb 2 row pale and 2 lb munich... what would the conversion be to extract? this is the recipe I'm trying to convert: http://hopville.com/recipe/464864/home-brew/louies-demise-clone-test-1 I...

Yah I've been wanting a kegging system. Last years tax return was spent on the brew kit... this years may be spent on a kegging system.

My process of washing bottles is incredibly slow. I learned it from the papazian book... I soak the bottles for an hour in a mixture of 2 tablespoons of bleach for every 6 gallons of water. Soaking this way is pretty time consuming. Wondering if anyone has any other tips for a faster way of...

Subject says it all... if so, how long is LME usable?

Yoop: I brewed your DFH Extract clone... I bumped up the hops though to 1.75 oz warior :-) I just bottled it last saturday... I'm dubbing it my opening day IPA. It tasted delish before going into the bottle, so I can't wait to taste it on Monday morning. Thanks for the recipe!!!!

Can anyone point me in the direction of a good maibock extract recipe? I've never brewed one, and can't even remember if I've tried a Mai'bock. May Bock... sounds like an appropriate time to brew one right?

I hear that, I usually rinse items after using my OneStep just because I've noticed those little white grainuals of cleaner sticking to my equipment. As much as they say it's kosher (not literally) to not rinse, I can't bear the thought of drinking one of those white cleaner grainuals.

NICE... brahs on the brew boards! You guys goin to any shows this summer? I have requests in for T-ride, Alpine and Chicago!

Edcculus... is that a phish reference?

So there seems to be a healthy debate between which is better. Referring to an earlier post, there were some people who were complaining about the amount of time the foam from StarSan takes to dissipate. I think one of the posts in the Stone Cold Lead Pipe N00B Advice thread said that it's...

I was reading the Stone Cold Lead Pipe N00B Advice Thread and post # 24 says you should not use One Step Sanitizer. Why is this? I just bought a can and used it on my last two batches... what's the deal with the stuff? Why is San Star better? responses are much appreciated... 5th batch in!

I'm doing an extract brew of an IPA that requres 1lb of Crystal 40L malts to steep. I wasn't paying attention and let my steep get up to 175 degrees for about 5 -8 min... I read you shouldn't exceed 180 degrees. I still have 9 LBS of gold LME to add. How much did I ruin this beer? Is it...

I used a blowoff tube with mine, but I think i had such a massive amount of blowoff because the tube was pushed too far into the carboy. Update on my status, I bottled this brew yesterday, and although flat and at room temperature... IT WAS DELICIOUS, and 5.4 % ABV as well, which is a...

Correct Humann, I did mean the green label. I also like the dogfish heads 60 and 90... but that two hearted clone looks like a good start, but it's all grain :-(
