Brewing this one today. Im going to add some Summit in the last hop edition for a little more orange/tangerine aroma. Does a Cascade:Summit ratio of 2:1 sound about right? TIA

Just received my false bottom. Wow. What a great looking product. I can't wait to brew with this. Thanks!

You can call the Norcal shop for the code.

Responding to thread for promo code please. Need a 15" reversed hinge w/level 1 filter stand, standard dip tube, & compression fitting. Thanks in adavnce

Is it this time of year already? 3 years of AG brewing for me so far and this is my favorite beer to make. Im pretty sure it's the neighbors favorite, too, along with the cream of 3 crops. Thanks BM! How cool can I go with the US05? I'm going to use a couple of igloo ice cubes filled with...

It's time for me to brew a pumpkin beer. I'm looking through my log book for the supplies I need. I brewed both of these last year and both were almost great. All other things being equal, does anyone have any suggestions for the following grain bills? TIA 5 gal. grain bill 1...

Brew day tomorrow! Just toasted 2lbs of 2-row @350 for ~12 minutes. I'll let it sit overnight and run it through the mill with the rest of the grain in the morning. Thanks again for the help.

Fixed it. Sorry, the way I wrote that it was pretty hard to tell what I was asking.

I'm going to try one of the Fat Tire clone type recipes from the old posts on the forum. I've seen a few of them that mention using ~2lbs of 2-row, amber malt, Belgian malt, etc. in the mash. Do you toast the grain and then run it through the mill? Is it toasted whole and then added to the...

Both are SOLD and have been paid for. Thanks HBT!

I have a bunch of left over stuff from my build. I know I have a 1/4" NPT water tight 4" k-type thermocouple probe with plug from Auber made to mount to the front of the box. The ends need to be dressed up, but it works. I also have some good red, black, green, & white stranded wire in different...

BOTH CONICALS ARE SOLD AND HAVE BEEN PAID FOR. THANKS HBT! I've got (2) of these from the Stouts & Kettles guy. I've put 4-6 batches through each so far with no issues. All of the o-rings & seals are good. 3/4" valves, tri-clamps. Very easy to dump yeast off of. Very cool to look at also, but...

This very similar to my build. Lots of help from PJ on mine, too. Help from Tiber, the Simple, TwentE2, concepts as well :) I also have two vessels, but I'm using a single heating element and a single pump. My HLT doubles as my BK and I recirculate my mash and recirculating the mash through a...
