    Lakefront Brewery IBA Pro Series Extract Kit w/ Specialty Grains

    I think your fine, usually with IPA's fermenting for 7-10days before secondary is normal but allow at least the same time for the secondary (7-10days). Leave in the Bottle for at least 3 weeks thou. Hope it turns out good...

    NB Sinistral IPA ?

    It should work just fine.... Ive actually brewed this kit in early December and from my experience you need to leave it in the bottle for at least 3 weeks. Tried it at 2 weeks and was very dissappointed with it but after over 3 weeks it continues to get better... PM me when you try it and let me...

    Color question for extract brewers

    This is a great question cause I too was wondering the same and was curious if I needed to do ALL-Grain to recieve the correct color. My experience is with mainly extract you get similar color with almost every batch Ive made in Ale style Beers. Just bottle a Bevarian Wheat and I have a Lager...

    No secondary for an IPA?

    Personally I have never NOT used a secondary. I have a problem with my great smelling Beer sitting on the settle "junk" at the bottom of my Carboy. I also completely support the off flavors being noticed even if others cant, I just dont want to chance 5 gallons. No wrong way to do it, just try...

    Ipa fermenting

    I dont change the temp at all from primary to secondary, my first "beer Kit" in 2009 said to transfer to the secondary. After you see what drops to the bottom in the secondary just after a week its hard not to do it on any other HomeBrew in my opinion. Ive never done a cold crash thou.
