windsors- I would mash close to 150, and add the bittering hops at 60 min, and the flavor and aroma at 15, and 5 mins? I dry-hop in primary after fermentation has finished, but you can do it in secondary.
For 5 gal. : 12 lbs 2-row and 1.5lbs crystal 60
the bittering hop is probably warrior, the flavor and aroma columbus and amarillo. dry-hopped with amarillo. The flying dog website has a good description of the ingredients and gravity points to hit. I would experiment with different yeast...
update: I brewed 10 gallons of a black-belgian ipa on 2/13/10, its been in primary since then. Today I transferred to secondary and added the 1st round of dry hops. I used the Whie labs trappist yeast because it was readily available. There was a strong 'belgian' kind of taste to the sample, and...
does anyone know what yeast flying dog uses for the woody creek wit, or have a good guess... it sounds like they probably use a similar yeast? I was thinking that the belgian ardennes from wyeast might come close.
I am fermenting a beer that included the specialty malts they list on the...
I have decided on the yeast that I'm going to use for my Belgian, Raging ***** inspired IPA. And the winner is Wyeast 3522. Stone used it in there '09 Vertical Epic, a Belgian Porter. http://www.stonebrew.com/epic/Wc6297b16717fd.htm
Any thoughts or opinions about a good yeast choice would be...
After trying the Flying Dog Raging B*tch, I've decided to try and come up with a clone or at least a beer that is similar. I was browsing the flying dog brewery site, and they listed El Diablo, as the yeast used for this beer. I did a quick google search, and couldn't find anything.
Does...
I took 2 BB's full of beer on a unexpected 12 hour drive, post active fermentation, tasted both of the batches at bottling time, and they were fine. I have tasted one of the batches twice since bottling, and there wasn't anything wrong with it. In your case it should just get lots of O2 at a...
I didn't think about attenuation. That is 73%, the low end for American 1056, and the f.g. fits the style guidelines for a barley wine according to the Wyeast website. So I guess I have nothing to worry about. I'm hoping the alcohol will mellow over the next year (only 8% abv), and the flavors...
