Is their a consensus on what recipe is accurate?

I will increase the boil to 2.5 hours as well!

As a beginner can someone please help with exact directions

I made this lagunitas clone recipe in the past and loved it, plus I added some peach extract too. Came out great. However, I want it to be a little stronger than the original 4% or so abv. I would like it to be around 7%. What should I add and how much? - 5lb 9oz light DME -...

Why can't I just star San the bottle and pour directly into it from the tap?

Has anyone done this? Was the pressure ok without blowing up the bottle? Did the beer taste ok later after warming up? Or should I bottle? If I do bottle what needs to happen when I take it out of a keg to bottle? Add sugar? Or just bottle? I want to bring a home brew to a friend I am...

I am doing a Pocahontas pumpkin ale right now. 5 days into primary

Do a blow off tube and save some vertical room

Thx for the info, which was some was new. I too wonder if that amount would overpower the smell.

I am making this brew and have about 3/4oz of williamette hops left over from another brew. It doesn't call for dry hopping it in the recipe, but I may consider it with these left over hops. Any thoughts? How would it change the beer?

Got a Pocahontas pumpkin started today!

I made a lagunitas IPA clone with peach extract added to the keg. It is awesome and could definitely compete with store bought brews. Not quite as hoppy as I like, but very good which I think the peach hides the hops Things for others I kind of did a swamp bath to keep the temperatures...

Got it. Thx for the advice. I will be doing another brew anyway in a few weeks, so will get it right before then.
