    Low Efficiency with New Equipment - help

    I recently purchased the top tier system and two boilermakers to replace my old haphazard cooler system. Well, after having conducted two batches I am encountering 60-62% efficiency. The first run after 45 minutes I tried to bump the heat up on the MT and got a little aggresive with it. So...

    Simcoe Pairing

    I am looking to brew an APA on Wednesday. I love Simcoe hops but not all by themselves. Does anyone have a recommended pairing for them? I was thinking of Citra to try something new, but am open to anything (Amarillo, Chinook and Centennial have also come to mind). Probably would be...

    Scottish Ale Yeast

    I am getting ready to brew a Scottish 80 Schilling. Having never brewed a Scottish - does anyone have a preference for which yeast they like to use? I have looked into WLP028 as I typically use White Labs products. Obviously, opinions will vary but I am curious to hear them. Thanks.

    Norfolk, VA

    Hey all, I have been bumping around reading this forum off and on for a while so I thought I would finally join and do my best to contribute. I've been brewing for about 5 years and do a mix of all grain (when time allows) and extract (when it doesn't). Prost, Porter
