I didn't even think about dry hopping it. Thanks, that's a relief.

Wondering if you guys think this recipe will be ok. I brewed an extract batch for a buddy of mine. During the boil I realized 2 ounces of hops were missing. 2 cans lme (3.3 pounds each) 1 pound dme 1 ounce columbus and .5 ounce chinook at 60 min 2 ounce centennial at 15 min .5 ounce chinook at...

Great, thanks for the answers. There are worse problems to have!

Awesome. Why is second pour fine though? Anything I can do to fix? The style is simply a solid American ipa. I had another commercial ipa before it on tap and no problem

Most impressive homebrew setup I've ever seen. I posted my completion in wrong thread lol. Beautiful setup. Since I had my second kid, I brew two batches when I find the time to brew. I brew an extract during the grain mash rest. Although it makes brew day go from fun and relaxing to a little...

Thanks for the suggestion. I have two kegs on tap, one homebrew and one commercial. The commercial is the one that is producing first pour foam, not my homebrew. Makes no sense to me whatsoever. Pours perfectly after first half glass foam beer. If I pour another beer after perfect pour a half...

I recently upgraded from tower kegerator to fridge converted kegerator. First two kegs fine. Two taps. 3rd keg I just tapped has foam first glass, perfect second pour second glass. Lines are 10 ft, inside fridge so they shouldn't be getting warm. 10 psi, 40 degrees. Why first glass foam? Makes...

Just finished

4 tablespoons is what I meant. I've used 2 at flameout and I didn't think it came through as much as I wanted. Hoping the tincture is much more prominent. Maybe I should start with 3

I meant 2 teaspoons lol, sorry

Quick question. I completely forgot to add the pumpkin pie spice to the last 5 minute boil of a brown ale I'm doing for Halloween (after years of using real pumpkin I've found it to be pointless and a pain). Figured no big deal and will do a vodka tincture at kegging. How much vodka? Never made...

Ok, I guess I wasn't over thinking it. A little more complex than I thought. I will be using beer smith for the appropriate extract/hop additions. Thanks

I currently brew 5 gallon all grain batches with the occasional extract here and there. I have a 10 gallon brew pot (can comfortably boil 9 gallons). I keep over thinking how best to end up with 15 gallons of extract for Christmas party. Easiest way would be to concentrate then top off with...
