  Hello all,Most of you reading this already brew proficiently, but if you know someone who's on

  Thanks for the encouragement. I'm still hoping for something good. I just have to be more
  patient and let it take it's course. There's always another competition around the corner.

  I was brewing a brown ale and decided to rack a gallon of it onto some de-oiled natural peanut
  butter (mixed 7 oz. peanut butter with 1 cup of boiling water to pasteurize and make it
  pourable). The kr...

• Posted in thread: Coldwater 420 - Special Pale Ale on 02-09-2012 at 07:41 PM
  The method I was using recommended using 5.5 quarts for the 4 pounds of grain, or 1.375
  quarts/pound. This fits nicely in a two gallon beverage cooler, which is what I use for my

  I've had 420 and liked it, but I've never tried them side by side to compare. My version was a

  Awesome, thanks!

  When I'm using beer calculus or another program to design recipes, how do I set the batch
  volume? Is it the volume of the batch at start of fermentation or is it the anticipated volume
  you plan to bot...

• Posted in thread: Partial mash temperature too low? on 01-06-2012 at 04:30 PM
  I ended up with an OG about 5 points lower than my target, so the temps must have dropped too
  low by the end of the mash time. Also, just to clarify, I added water to the cooler at about
  163F, which s...
