    Maple Stout

    Well back in the day, I made a maple and oats stout using a coopers stout LME and loved it; Iv'e since used it in a few brown ales, stouts and porters with Ontarian Maple syrup, it added a sweeter and complex flavor to low IBU darker beers.

    Just helped my GF make mead for the first time!

    Yeah, you should put them in the fermentation over the boil if you don't want to buy a lot of berries.

    Filtering hops from wort.

    Yeah, I think that may be it.

I guess for next batch i'll just siphon with a tube and see if i get the same problem. Thanks.

    Filtering hops from wort.

    I personally always had troubles filtering the small pieces of hops from my end result. I would attempt to filter; when moving wort into the primary, putting it in the secondary and again when bottling. I started try using small nylon bags but having to use them every ounce or so is quite a...
