I have enough extra doing nothing in my fridge. I'd have to combine to get an og of at least 1.50. so, I was thnking of a pale just to use it. what should i expect with dry pale & wheat malt and an non wheat beer yeast? crap or a worthwhile experiment?

I do the occasional 1 gallon batch. it works great for me and my tiny kitchen and of course, i don't feel so guilty wasting things. Here's what I've got: Safeale 05 1# wheat malt extract that I do not know how old it is. I would say 1.5 months 1/2# fresh dry wheat malt 1/2# fresh dry...

I was looking for a couple quick suggestions as I'm getting frustrated with AG. I have done AG a few years back in a 10g cooler and I never finished that beer due to a move. I just got back into it, very much so (8 batches brewed since mid November) and at this point I can't seem to figure out...

I have a starting gravity of 1.094 and according to beer tools (yes, I know I can't always rely on it) and it said it would bring down the final G to 1.021. I was wondering with a gravity that high, would I need to pitch another vial of yeast or would I be cool with one vial of WPL002 and...

I perused the first couple pages of this sub forum for a topic like this. I have brewed about 10 batches without kits or recipes and 2 kits. I love brewing, it's quite possibly my favorite hobby since I've started playing guitar- I guess it's the artist in me. I don't really have any...

I'm trying to make a quality tasting IIPA. I've brewed one that has turned out pretty decent (It's been bottled a week and I cant stop opening one to see how it has turned out everyday) and I wanted to improve upon it. I have a couple issues and was looking for advice.... 1- I only have a 20...

This is the batch I brewed last night. I think it looks and smells pretty good. I don't really have exact reasons why I came up with some of the timings or hop choices, but I was wondering what to think I can expect. I had a spare 3.3 lbs breiss amber malt and some spare time so I went to the...

Between a friend and I we have brewed about 12 batches using malt extracts. I finally tried to do my own IPA at home. As a standard, we have been doing 2 weeks in the primary (Ale pail) and 2 weeks in the glass car boy. I'm not exactly sure why we have chosen 2 weeks and 2 weeks, but I am at...
