    flaked barley

    Stupid question, but does it need to be crushed? I have a pound of it, but the lhbs person didn't mix it in with the rest of my grain. Do I just add it with the rest of the grain during dough in? Thanks for the help.

    2nd all grain

    Quick question. If I add a pound of rice hulls to prevent a stuck sparge, do I take that into consideration when doing my water/grain ratio?

    Tough brew day--1st pm

    So I tried a small PM yesterday while brewing my first IIPA(hopville . "OTO IPA" Imperial IPA Recipe). I did a variation of Death Brewers stovetop process. Turns out I mashed my 2lbs of munich for 30 minutes at 160. Once I realized it I was able to bring the temp down between 150 and 155 for...

    priming sugar

    So, I went to bottle my hefe on the 4th and realized I didn't have any priming sugar. The LHBS was closed for the holiday, and it seems no one sells corn sugar, so I picked up some cane sugar. After checking How to Brew by Palmer, I boiled 2 cups of water with 4oz of cane sugar and then racked...

    Munich Malt

    Can someone give me a quick run down on the different types of munich malts? When a store sells munich malt, is it munich 10L? Is it a stepping grain or mashing grain? What does it add to a beer? Obviously I'm new to this and any clarification would be great.
