  This has been asked time and time again, but I wonder if Gypsum from the garden section of your
  hardware store is really all that different. The guaranteed analysis of Gypsum on the 30# bag
  says 92% g...

  Brewed, fermented, dry hopped, cold crashed, kegged and served all within two weeks. No notes
  of green beer here. I followed everything by the book and this beer turned around like a champ.

  is going to...

  Going to be a ~1065OG beer finishing at ~6.5%, was thinking of just trying to get as much of

• Posted in thread: Converting an IPA to an IIPA on 11-07-2012 at 06:10 AM
  Torpedo is one of my faves, because it packs a ton of hop flavor. By bumping up the malt load
