    American Wheat?

    Speaking of that Alabama summer...it was miserably hot brewing on Saturday. The wind blowing the heat from the Cajun cooker right towards me didn't mix well with the +90° heat and 75% humidity...

    American Wheat?

    Sorry, I guess I wasn't clear enough. My pre-boil volume was supposed to be 8 gallons, with a 60 min boil and 1.5gal/hour of evaporation. That leaves me with 6.5gallons total wort at the end and that gets me 5.5 in the fermenter after trub loss, cooling shrinkage and other equipment loss...

    American Wheat?

    I went for it and tried it on Saturday and if the final product tastes anything like the wort, then it's going to be a spectacular brew! I really like the "spicy" flavor from the Crystal as it compliments the citrus from the cascade nicely. My only "hiccup" is that in my equipment profile, I...

    American Wheat?

    So, even though I've only got one All-Grain batch under my belt, I've decided to create my own simple recipe and keep brewing it over and over so that I can really nail my process down. For my hops I went with Crystal and Cascade, as I'm looking for a citrusy flavor profile. I wanted to use the...

    Boil off Rate and DMS in the South

    I used Weyerman 2-row as my base, so using pilsner "shouldn't" have caused it...unless my LHBS gave me the wrong malt. The way it works is I email him my grain bill ahead of time and he has it ready to go when I get there. So that actually could have happened Sent from my iPad using Home Brew

    Boil off Rate and DMS in the South

    I'm almost positive I'm cooling fast enough as I'm using an immersion chiller and so it's below 140°F less than 10 mins after flameout. Sent from my iPad using Home Brew

    Boil off Rate and DMS in the South

    On my last batch of beer, a fat tire clone, I got noticeable levels of DMS in my beer. This is kinda worrisome to me since I haven't had it since my very first batch where I made the stupid mistake of boiling with the lid on. :smack: (I actually did a blind smell test between my beer and a...

    Electric Brewery - Start to Finish... hopefully

    I've always wondered...Do you sand down the edges of the cut afterwards? It seems like a good way to slit your wrist cleaning the inside.

    Desperately trying to find way to connect wort chiller to sink...

    Try this, I have been using it for a couple years now and it works great! http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000BPFYG4/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Midwest Honey Amber Ale

    I'll now brewed 2 extract batches of hefeweizen. The first was a complete failure because I tried to boil the wort on my stove and without a rigorous boil the high levels of DME made it seem like creamed corn. The second turned out okay(drinkable) but was by no means delicious. Now,I'm...
