Spaced, Saw your Rasberry Beer on your blog and would like to give it a go. Here is my take (5 gallon boil/batch): 3.0lbs Sorghum Syrup @ 60 minutes 6.0oz Maltodextrine @ 60 minutes 0.5oz Hallertau Hops @ 60 minutes 0.5oz Tettnang Hops @ 30 minutes 0.5tsp Yeast nutrient @ 15 minutes...

I wanted a hoppier, higher gravity version of the Dual Spires Black Lodge Ale, so here's what I came up with. It's currently in the secondary, plan to bottle this weekend. 5 gallon batch: 60 - 3lbs rice syrup, 3lbs sorghum syrup, 1lb D-180 candi syrup, 8oz blackstrap molasses, 8oz...

Well... this started off as a version of mloster's "Hop Bursted pale Ale". I thought I would add some invert sugar (bump up the gravity) and add some blackstrap molasses (add a little flavor and color). I also decided to sub Cascade for the Centennial (had a bunch of Cascade in the freezer)...

This was another of my experiments with Cascade hops. I bottled it on 7/17/12 after 2 weeks primary, and 1 in secondary. With a twist of lime, this beer tastes like a Corona (a yummy bohemian Corona with 5.5ABV and 32IBU). Even my "non-beer drinking" wife likes it (nice). With a 30 minute...

Bottled this last night after 2 weeks in the primary and a week in the secondary. The final partially filled bottle was so good I drank it warm and flat... This could turn out to be a very good beer; more to come. Pretty easy; only did a 45 minute boil: Time - Additions 45min - 3lb...

I brewed this batch up on 6/16/12. I had bought a pound of Cascade hops to experiment with... so, 5 hops additions and ultimately 5 ounces of hops. It spent 13 days in the primary and 9 days in the secondary (the plan was 14/7). Although it had only been in the bottles 9 days, I tried one...

Well I put one of two PartyPigs from this batch in the fridge on Tues to drink on the 4th. The good: Great aroma and hop flavor, not overpowering even at 100+ IBUs. Great color and clarity. Also, does not have an alcohol "bite" despite being 8.4%/ABV. The bad: The sorghum twang is still very...

Been poking around this site and others for some guidance/opinions on sorghum to rice extract ratios when used as the primary fermentables. I have had limited success finding any good advice, as in: 1) how much a percentage of rice extract is too much 2) if you're gonna use a certain...

Anybody ever ask about adding a GF recipe section to the recipe database section of this site?

Below is my attempt at a GF version of the 60 Min IPA clone posted here. 60 Minute IPA is (was) one of my favorites before going GF. In terms of brewing experience, I have brewed exactly 1 batch of homebrew (and it's still in the fermenter...), so any advice would be appreciated. If I were...

I recently discovered that I am very sensitive to gluten. I am glad not to be sick anymore but I am not impressed with the selection of GF beers available in my area (I WANT MY IPA; GIVE ME HOPS), so I decided to take matters into my own hands. Bought some equipment and brewed my first batch...
