I've read about half this thread and have seen people use different yeast than the Nottingham, but don't remember seeing anything about Danstar BRY-97 American West Coast yeast. AHS sent me an extra that is used for a different kit with my order and I am trying to decide whether to use that or...

Best Buy has the Igloo 10 cu. ft. on sale again. I'm debating whether I should buy it or not. It's bigger than I need, but the extra room kind of gives me a small fridge for bottles and other drinks, plus I don't have to buy a temp controller. I assume still no issues with desired temps from...

I'm in. Give me something good.

Any chance this is still available?

My concerns with those pots would be the thickness on the bottom. I don't think they are 3-ply. The sidewall thickness at 1mm seems to be about the same as a MegaPot or similar heavy duty kettle. Another concern would be the durability of the handles. They look to be riveted, but will they...

Thanks for posting. AHS wouldn't provide the recipe to me. I had a feeling they wouldn't because they declined to provide another one to me once before. I plugged your information into BeerSmith and it came up with an OG of 1.060 or a little higher and final ABV of 6.6% (I modified...

When you say prickly pear, are you talking about the normal cactus that grows up in the hill country? We have some land up around Harper with tons of cactus that I could use. How long was it from the time you cut the prickly pear to the time you put it in the secondary? Did you have to do...

Has anybody made the all grain version of this beer? If so, could you share the recipe? I would like to try it, but don't really want 5 gallons of it. I'd like to scale it down to 2-3 gallons.

I think I will try my paint strainers for my first batch and see how it goes. I'll have around 12.5 lbs of grain for an IPA in it. I'm looking to upgrade my pot at some point, so I'll try to hold off on a wilserbrewer bag until I know what size I need.

Didn't think about that aspect of it. That's something I'd definitely prefer not to have to deal with. Right now I have an 8 gallon pot that I will use for my 5 gallon full boils, which will be tight. I was just thinking that a 15 gallon pot would be cutting it a little close if starting...

I am in the transition phase of going from extract brews to all grain, and probably the BIAB method. Right now I only do 5 gallon batches, but I hope to do 10 in the future on occasion. If I got a 20 gallon kettle now when only doing 5 gallon batches, are there any negatives to having such a...

Thanks for the replies. I checked my pot and it's a full 8 gallons, which helps with the boil. My 5 gallon paint strainers also barely fit around the edge so I don't know that I have to buy anything for a BIAB setup. I think I'm going to go that route and hope my sparging helps, along with...

I am trying to decide if I want to move to all grain using the more traditional method and a 50 quart cooler or all grain as BIAB. I have read that a finer crush is desired for BIAB because of increased efficiency and the smaller crush is still filtered by the bag. I emailed Austin Homebrew to...

Thanks. I'm new at this so that's something I had probably read before, but I didn't really pay attention to since I have only bought kits to this point.

Here is what is in BeerSmith. I don't see any inconsistencies, but I've never done AG or created my own recipe. Extract BeerSmith 2 Recipe Printout - http://www.beersmith.com Recipe: AHS Falconer's Flight Brewer: Me Asst Brewer: Style: American IPA TYPE: Extract Taste: (30.0)...

I made the extract Falconer's Flight IPA from AHS last year. I just got BeerSmith 2 and did a conversion of that recipe to an AG recipe to see how the grain bill was estimated. The extract recipe I entered I to BeerSmith was pretty accurate as far as the ABV, which was right on or maybe off by...
