1.5 T of mccorm

brewed this on 08/12 bottled on 09/02 - definitely needs to carb up a bit more as for tasting notes- mine has a medium body with an almost perfect balance of hops and sweetness leaning towards the sweet side, the spices compliment the sweet nicely, i will brew it again sometime and when i do the...

Split it in half, do two mashes, do two boils, combine in Fermentor, easy.

split it in two even if it's roughly in two, brew two batches, combine them in your fermentor, pitch your yeast

I used the mccormicks pumpkin pie spice as recommended

Brewed this on 08/12 just took a hydro sample and it 1.017, and tasting great, I do think it could use a tad more spice but after a few weeks I'm sure the flavors will mellow and I'll bottle it up! Thanks for the recipe!!

Lauter In A Bag I like it

I used one of those 5 gal cylinder type ones a friend had before and worked great also, but can get tricky with larger grain bills, if you do use one of those you can just mash with the grain bag already in the cooler and just lift out the grain to sparge, about 12# max of grain @1.25qt/pound...

The hydrosample tasted great, i know its going to be awesome, thanks for the recipe. Finding the libbys was really the hardest part, I went to three grocery stores and only found one can but then found some other organic brand that was straight pumpkin pack so I went with that

......and done! i did a 5gal all grain batch, ended a 1.065 on the nose except i didn't have as much loss i predicted so i ended with 5.5 gal not a bad evening at all!!

Brewin this as we speak

good idea... i feel a bit better now !!
