I’m not quite sure how it happened but instead of making 10 gallons I doubled everything on the 5 gallon recipe and made a really big 5 gallon batch. Will this basically be a imperial stout? OG is 1.092 the sample tasted good. Also any suggestions on how long to leave in fermenter I’ve never...
I do crush my own, and I batch sparge. Maybe I need to set my gap a little tighter I used to get stuck sparges, but I haven’t in a while and I use the same amount of rice hulls.
I have been missing my numbers by 3-6 points the last few brewdays. I am using 72% efficiency but when I click on the tab it says actual efficiency is around 67% depending on the day. Should I change my efficiency on the main page to match that number to try to get near the projected OG?
I usually brew all grain, but I like to do extract kits every now and then mainly DME. I brewed a double batch of M-80 ipa from morebeer and have a weird nasty flavor that lingers on your tongue. The only thing different is the liquid extract I have never used it with my electric kettle is it...
I should prbly just stick to the extract it is a quick and easy brew to keep something on tap. The only reason I was going to try all grain was to get the cost down on a 10 gallon batch.
Thanks for the replies I guess I wasn't thinking just keeping it the same. I thought it may change being a extract to all grain but not sure why I thought that.
I did a version of 15 minute pale ale that I really like. I would like to try to make a all grain batch of this but I'm unsure of the hop schedule. Here is what I did for the 15 min. batch any idea for 60 minutes?
2.5 oz Citra 15 min.
1.0 oz cascade 10 min.
1.0 oz centennial 5 min.
.5 oz...
