  I cold crash only when one of the two conditions apply:1) Brewing lighter beers that I want to
  clear out quickly2) Need to speed up primary process to free up a carboy, and want to make sure

  Wouldn't it be fun to find the "Honey Ale" is actually just a BeeCave House clone? :mug:I
  personally wouldn't be surprised...

  Is anyone using the AG approach getting a stuck sparge? I've read this can be a problem mashing
  pumpkin...I have brewed this 4 times AG style, and have never had a stuck sparge. SLOW sparge?
  heck yes ...

  I brew a modified version of this recipe every July (for the past 4 years) - I brew in July so
  it gets a full two months of conditioning time before I tap the keg in mid september... just in

  I got a lot of dill flavor from an all Sorachi Ace wheat.I'm half jokingly thinking of making a
  Summit and Sorachi Ace beer. I figure the onion, garlic, and dill would pair with fish pretty

  I really thought it would have to sit on the trub for a while but I guess it's like buying SN's
  Bigfoot. Oh, and to this point you made - most folks don't keep beer on trub longer than 3-4
  weeks, rega...

  Yep, treat the pressurized keg as you would a bottle... as long as the basement doesn't go over
  65F, you should be golden to keep them outside the kegerator. This should actually help the
  clearing/agi...

  Wow, very helpful. I think i will look for sorachi ace hops, they sound interesting. Do you
  think any light crystal hops would be in order or would that be overkill when combined with the
  honey malt?D...

  1lb of victory will get you a lot of toasty flavor... I use 1/2lb in my lighter summer beers
  when I want some toasty malt notes in there, so I can only imagine a pound will be quite
  dominant - especia...

  Sounds like you have kegging capabilities - I would totally throw the Barleywine in a keg,
  pressurize it with ~20lb psi, then wait however many weeks/months/years you want till you tap
  it... and prest...
