    RYE PA Critique

    Makes sense to me. Come to think of it, I just did a black IPA, full of simcoe and cascade, and I used carafa for the color. Worked quite well. As for the rye, I've been using 30% for all my pale ales, with 30-50 IBU, and it's been good for me. Like you said, personal taste. Cheers

    RYE PA Critique

    Hey Guys, Was thinking about a rye pa and fiddled around with a new recipie. Normally when I do one it's a simple 2 row/crystal/rye combo, but I wanted to try something different. So I ditched the crystal, and added a small ammt of munich and chocolate for color. Also, the LHBS just got some...

    Dealing with fruit flies

    Get some sodium metabisulphite (wine making sanitizer) from the LHBS, mix up the recomended dosage in a sprayer bottle, and lightly coat the top of the bucket. I've been doing this for years and it works fantastically. No bugs in my beer.

    British beer (bottled) recommendations

    Please help me add yeast to bottle an 11% ABV RIS

    I stumbled upon this article a while ago looking for the same answers as you. I've been using it for high and low gravity brews that I have filtered and still wanted to bottle. Use the chart at the bottom and you won't go wrong. Hope this helps you. Cheers...

    Mashing questions

    +1 to the rice hulls. I use them every time I do a wheat beer. Never had a stuck sparge or an efficiency problem

    Old Ale w/ 9097

    Good call. I might just leave this one, and do a big starter from my buddy's pack, and try to culture some and store it in the freezer for a later time.

    Old Ale w/ 9097

    Yah, I've never tried washing. Definitely something i'm going to try sooner rather than later. But the old ale will be a while. It's in the keg right now, and I'm trying to save it until at least the fall. Do you think the yeast will still be good by then?

    Old Ale w/ 9097

    Hey guys, Got kind of excited this weekend when I did a sample tasting of the old ale I did up with the 9097 yeast. I did a primary for about 3 weeks, then transfered to a keg and added about 3/4cup of molasses to condition. After 3months of keg conditioning, the brett culture is really...
