Just did 2 10 gallon batches Farmhouse Sassaion much like Tank 7 and an IPA with heavy Mosaic and Amarillo/Simcoe backing

My 15minute boil with galaxy Denali and simcoe

Coming back to this many years later, and about 40-45 different recipes later, thanks for all the help back then. I was overseas and had to stop for a while, but over the last year I have been doing some good brews. Brew session for the weekend Friday -Jalapeño blonde -Mosaic Amarillo IPA...

So I made a 5 gallon batch of this and it was awesome! It was gone in less than 3 weeks. My question for the next batch is how do I get that clove/banana flavor and scent. This recipe is very clean and crisp, but lacks a bit of aroma and spice. GREAT recipe! Just want to see what your feedback...

Ha ha, looks like I'm good then because I had 6lbs and said f it, throw it! I'll give feedback on how it turns out...

I just found out what krausen was and yes that is the stuff I was talking about. I am still new so I am constantly worrying about messing up. I thought I screwed up my last batch, a Stone Arrogant Bastard clone and it ended up tasting awesome! Thanks for the feedback, and if you have a sec, how...

Thanks Pappers! Apache: I didn't even know what Krausen was, but yes that is it. It is all just sitting on the top and not dropping. Duboman: I used 6 pounds of WME, 1oz of Tettinger hops, and an American style Hef yeast. 60 min boil. I royally screwed the yeast addition temp, but has now been...

Cooked a batch of this and I have a question about it. I cooked everything right and when I cooled my wort I only got it down to like 87 degrees :( and then dropped the yeast in. I was planning to ferment it at 70 but the cabinet I put it in retained some heat so at about 18 hours into...

I have done some research and cannot figure this out. I am brewing my second batch of beer which is a much easier recipe than my first. I cooked everything right and when I cooled my wort I only got it down to like 87 degrees :( and then dropped the yeast in. I was planning to ferment it at 70...

I am happy to report that my beer turned out excellent. The guys at the home brew mart thought I was crazy for doing a tough beer as my first, but all went well. Drank 2 glasses tonight and knowing it was mine provided immense personal satisfaction. Cheers guys, and thanks for the feedback. I...

Hi all! So here is what I did, and any pro feedback would be appreciated. I made a Stone Arrogant bastard clone as my first beer and I transferred it into the corny today, it tasted okay, just like old flat bitter ale. I used 2oz's of a Amirrilo/Simco blend of hop pellets in a hop bag to dry...

Thanks for all the info guys!!! I still have it sitting in the secondary, prop gonna leave it there for another 8 days to put me out just past 3 weeks. One thing that I did do while steeping it ws remove the steeps, and then put them back in for a few minutes. Next time I will time the steeping...

Sweetcell, I appreciate your input. When I say there is no more avtivity I mean that the beer has no foam, no noticed movement in the airlock, just a bucket of liquid. I took a small taste off of it today to see if I could notice an infectious taste, it tasted like old IPA that sat out for a...

Thanks for the insight Haputanlus! Mulhaircorey, I put one pound of once grinded special B grains into a steeping bag and left it in the boiling pot until it reached just before boiling point, and then I pulled it out. At that point I turned off the flame and mixed in my malt extract, and then...
