Yes. You should not be concerned about not being warm enough but rather too warm. You will get decent beer at your ambient temps but a little funky at the 76 you intend to raise it.

I really love the growing trend of canned craft brew. Lighter, better light protection, and cheaper to distribute. I have been trying to buy and support any I can find. Hope more adopt it. It might take a little time as old equip is replaced, but a new brewer just coming into the game I say it...

true!!!

I just tried Evil Genius this weekend and I have to try making it also. Still working on a recipe. I tried getting some info out of the owner but he said he wasn't giving me much more info than the hop list (which is on the web site). At 6% I don't think too much aging will be involved. and...

Just updating. I did give everything away locally. Sorry, I never heard back from anyone here. I think they made it to good homes.

Tell me a time and I'll have them here. Let me know because a couple of people have expressed interest locally.

I decided to keep them in basically the same place and just thin them. So I just started cutting out and they were everywhere. I put all I took out and put them in garbage bags and now have 3 bags of them with roots ,runners, and starts. Both centenial and nugget. So if any body close...

I think Elkhart is probably 2 hrs away so definitly. I will post when I grab them out of the ground and see if we sync up as far as timing.

Out of 5 of us who tried we got 2 tix. That was crazy fast. I blame my slow laptop.

I have done alot of thinking about shipping the hop starts, and I don't think I am going to hassle with it. Sorry about this but I will still give them away to anybody who wants to come and get them. I will try to give a little heads up about when I pull them out of the ground. If nobody...

Jump on in. It's not much harder and gives you a more of a "from scratch" feel to homebrewing. I brewed 3 extract batches then went allgrain from there. I was all self tought so I'm sure I have some bad habits, but still produce beer I love to drink. I have actually never watched someone...

Only used it for bittering so hard to say flavor wise. It does not seem to have a harsh bittering to it. I would love to see who has used ti for flavor or aroma. Don't know if you can.

I have been using nugget alot lately due to a good deal I revieved. I use them for everything from bittering to aroma and love them. They are also what I grow in my garden so I have also used them in whole cones and love the taste. I have made a harvest ale with 100% of my own and it...

Just digging up this old thread to see what experiences people are having with Hopshot. I have used it on the last 2 brews for bittering and already kegged 1. So far so good. What I really like about it is that it reduced trub so much. I used a hop sock for aroma and flavor and my mesh...

I am not opposed to shipping them,I was just hoping for a close pickup to make the whole thing less work. My knowhow on the shipping methods are very limited. As well as the splitting methods. I hope I don't kill the whole lot in the process. So like I said we have a little time to figure...
