    40 minute boil of Weyermann Pilsner malt worked

    I switched from brewing using 2 row and Vienna as my base malt for various amber colored beers to a Pilsner using nothing but Weyermann Pilsner malt. The well modified, not the extra pale, is what I bought. http://www.weyermann.de/eng/produkte.asp?idkat=15&umenue=yes&idmenue=37&sprache=2...

    Accidentally mashed my Pilsner at 158F

    Was in a rush and calculated the infusion strke temp using a grain temperature of 50 when grain was really 70 and then probably allowed the strike water to go a little over as well due to also rushing the temp reading on the strike water. (I blame caffeine and sugar.) Was shooting for 153F...

    According to the instructions on the tube, "add to 5 gallons of aerated must or wort at 70-75F. Keep at this temperature until fermentation begins." I saw my first bubble in the airlock about 14 hours after pitching, 72F inside fermenter, and left it in the 68F kitchen until 22 hours had...

    Partial Mash California Common

    I based this off of John Palmer's No. 4 Shay Steam (which has an All grain and an Extract version, but I am trying to go the less documented middle road of the partial mash) Wondered if this looked ok to those with more experience. For 5 gallons BIAB Grain bill (all U.S. domestic): 2 Row -...

    Crushing Grain In the Brewhouse

    I know from Papazian and other sources that malted grain contains lactobacillus that are released into the air with the dust of crushing the malt. My wife wants to buy the nice multi-purpose (grinding/cracking/crushing) Country Living Grain Mill http://countrylivinggrainmills.com/index.php and...

    Brewed my first batch

    Chose a sweet stout for my first brew. Nice and dark and flavorful to hide any mistakes. :D Thanks to Death Brewer's excellent partial mash pictorial, I had no problems mashing 4 lbs of grains in a 5 gallon paint strainer bag in a stock pot and then transferring to the next pot and then to...
