I'm planning on trying this in the near future. Taking a 5 gal kit and reducing the volumes to up the OG, though i will be adding extra hops to the mix and maybe an addition of honey to up it more. I tend to get bored with following others recipes.

Burning River Pale is still one of my favorite beers....think I need make a beer run ;)

Just had my first one this year. I'm not sure if its me or the beer, but it tastes kind of meh. Maybe I'm just drinking too much great beer lately.

Pulled a sample for a gravity reading today and it was a lot lighter than I thought. Always seems darker in the fermenter. This stuff won't last...tastes great warm and flat :mug:

I, for one, welcome our new beer brewing mathematician overlords :D I just looked this equation up the other day for my new boil pot. It just seemed easier than dumping 8 gallons of water!

Just wanted to say thanks for this awesome thread. Helped a ton on my first biab. My very scientific process was to pull bag out of boil pot and dunk in water. lol

Bought some 2 row and used up some extra grains/hops I had lying around. What did I make? I was thinking along the lines of a pale ale, but it turned out pretty dark. Not-so-pale ale maybe :D 10 lbs Pale Malt (2 Row) 1 lbs Caramel/Crystal Malt - 60L 4.0 oz Caramel/Crystal Malt - 20L 0.75...

Maybe dump in some vinegar and let it soak. Since its SS, it should be okay.

I did 3 oz. on my first stout and that was perfect for my tastes. It was hell waiting though. Took 3 or 4 weeks in the bottle before it seem to carb up correctly.
