Whats up everyone, I need a recipe for a Belgian IPA Tripel. Doing 5 gallons all grain. Hope someone can help.

I was at a fancy steak house last night (rhymes with Bruce mist) and when they brought me my beer the waiter asked if he could pour it for me. I said no (because I like to pour my own beer) So I pour the beer leaving some left in the bottle. Later he walks by to pick up the bottle and then pours...

I have a Belgian dub. in bottles that have been conditioning for a week. The temps are starting to get higher and my room temp gets up in the high 70's. I'm contemplating throwing them in the fridge after another week or two so they won't be at such a high temp. I know they will take longer to...

Hey there everyone, I have a Belgian dubbel in secondary at the moment. It was in primary for a little over a week. The starting gravity was 1.07 and a racked to secondary at 1.02. It's been in secondary around 20 days. I took a reading a few weeks ago and it was at 1.06. I re-pitched to see if...

Went to the Yard House in Palm Desert CA last week. I was a prettygood time. Good selection. I know it's a chain. We have a place in Baltimre with a good selection called Max's, but they treat peple like **** and it's not worth going. Had a good berr at the Y.H. called th Bootleger IPA. Anyone?

Someone posted a thread and asked if they should dry hop a saison because they might have fermented too high, I say why not. If the Hops cover up some unwanted flavers who cares if it's not to style. Besides they should be drank quick this summer not laid down anyway right?:cross:

I live in an appartment in Baltimore and currently looking for house. I find it funny how the basement is allmost a major component of the decision making.There are many great spots but only some without underground basements. I find it amusing that the fact theat I could have an underground...

I have a Belgian dubbel in secondary now. I racked after a week in primary. The OG was 1.07 and I racked at 1.02. There is no activity in secondary for a week and the gravity is right under 1.02. I know your not supposed to see much,if any, activity in secondary but I feel I should be able to...

What's up everyone, I have a beer in primary where the idea was to be a Belgian style but with more hops. I based it on a westmalle dubbel but added a taste and aroma hop addition. I'm hoping it will still have the caramel flavors from the candy and the nice Belgium yeast profile but also...

What's up everyone, I have a beer in primary where the idea was to be a Belgian style but with more hops. I based it on a westmalle dubbel but added a taste and aroma hop addition. I'm hoping it will still have the caramel flavors from the candy sugar and the nice Belgium yeast profile but...

Kinda messed up when doing this one. added too much water to wort during boil and tried to balance it by adding more extract, and forgot to get an OG reading before I pitched the yeast. It was a three gallon batch with about 7lbs extract and specialty grains. I transferred to secondary after 9...

I just racked to secondary and could not fill the carboy totally. There is a pretty good amount of empty space. I am concerned about oxidation but don't want to top off with water either. Any ideas?

have a big beer in primary and plan on dry hoping in secondary. I plan on leaving it in secondary for at least a month. My question is should I dry hop when I rack to secondary or wait a few weeks before I plan to bottle. I've heard the oppinion that it's not good to let the hops sit in for...

I am brewing a rochefort 10 clone and it has just passed its third week in secondary, and one in primary. My concern is it still seems very active and there are small bubbles still on the top and a ring of bubbles around the edge of the carboy. There also seems to be a clear film on the top...

Hello, I am using a recipe for a big Belgium beer clone (Rochefort 10) and it says to re pitch another dose of yeast 3 days before bottling. I am brewing only 3 gallons. When I pitched the yeast I used a whole vile of White labs Belgium yeast. I figured this would be fine because of how much...
