Thanks for the input, I didn't realize amber and dark extracts were just 2 row and crystal. I thought it would be more complicated for some reason. I'll put it in my brew software and see where it takes me Cheers

Go right ahead. The last batch I bottled, I did 4 growlers and 10 bombers, easiest bottling day ever! Sure beats filling 50 bottles

I just bottled two batches I made a couple months ago, and popped one from each batch open after a week. The beer from both batches tasted like alcohol, real hot alcohol. I used harvested yeast for both of the batches. I know the fermentation temps didn't get too high (didn't get above 67*), and...

I like to use this rub for pork and beef. I have yet to try the injection he has posted on the web page as well. If anyone has tried it, or a different version let me know the difference with and without it. I also like to use Montreal Chicken Seasoning for smoked poultry. This is a nice thread...

neither one got over over 67*

Midnight wheat malt will give you a high SRM without adding a whole lot of flavor

I just brewed a 3 gallon batch in a 5 gallon pot. I did it as a brew in a bag, with all the grains (I think 4.5 lbs) in a large grain bag. I mashed with 4.25 gallons of water and lost another gallon during the boil, leaving me with just about 3 gallons. I did it to use up some leftover hops I...

check please

This beer is really good! The hops don't come out too much, but I think that's from the complexity of the malt bill. It came out between an amber and a brown (if that's possible), I can't really tell which category it would fall under by looking at it (SRM 19) It is a nicely balanced beer, that...

+1 https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f36/biab-brewing-pics-233289/ Check out the "sticky" on Brew In A Bag, it's wonderful, and opened my eyes to a whole new world!:ban: I picked up a grain bag for ~ $4 at my LHBS Let us know how it works out for you :mug:

thanks for the feedback, I think I'll give it a go. I'll pass on the pale chocolate since I do have a pound of victory. Hopefully it's full bodied and full of hops and a great beer, I'll check back in a while and let you know (hopefully I remember :drunk:)

Can you just stir the wort to keep these proteins suspended, and avoid the scorching? Are there other issues that can arise from this?

I was looking for sweet, nutty, caramel flavors with maybe a hint of coffee from the roasted barley, since my question was about the grain bill I only posted that, but here's the rest of the recipe, if you're interested. It's an American Brown style on the upper end of the IBU's (I love hops). I...
