    Chocolate Donut Dry Stout

    Just wanted to share my latest stout recipe because it turned out so great. A friend named it because she said it reminded her of a delicious chocolate donut she had, and I thought that was pretty funny. The brew store was out of several grains, and the yeast I wanted, so I just improvised...

    End of Summer Honey Citra IPA

    I just brewed this based on a recipe I found here once for a honey IPA recipe, but I can't remember who it was from. I'm hoping it will be a great drinkable aromatic pale/IPA. for 5.5 gallon batch: 8 lbs. 2 row 3 lbs. honey malt 1 lbs. Munich 1 lbs. Vienna FWH 1 oz. Columbus...

    How often do you mix??

    I have two beers right now: A variation on BierMunchers Centennial Blonde, and a clone attempt at Tank 7 Farmhouse. Both taste great on their own, but I happened to do a Tan and Tan mix of 50% of each, and it tasted pretty awesome. I am almost tempted to mix most of both kegs to make one...

    Idea for split batch: Centennial Blonde/Saison?

    I've been meaning to brew the famous Centennial Blonde, as it sounds pretty great, and I need a beer that will be done soon while I wait for my higher gravity farmhouse ale to age. But I'm on a Farmhouse/Saison kick too, so I thought I'd split the batch and pitch Nottingham in one half of it...

    Using Port Orford Cedar in Secondary?

    I work as a woodworker (guitar builder), and love the smell of Port Orford Cedar. I tried a search, and could not come up with anyone ageing beer on this, as opposed to say, Oak. I personally could see it going well with certain types of hops. Just curious if anyone has tried this?

    Attempt at Tank 7 Farmhouse Style

    I recently had a beer tasting party and the winner was Tank 7. It is certainly one of my favorite beers. I thought I'd try to make something similar. Here's what I tried, based on any other threads I could find about this beer: 10 lbs. 2 row 1 lbs. Vienna (I added this just to see what...

    Haphazard Winter Porter

    I had a funny and interesting brew day yesterday after getting off work early, and realizing I had time to do a brew. I quickly searched up a winter porter recipe, ran to the brewstore for some grains and wlp007, assumed I had good enough hops at home, and went for it. Here's the recipe, based...

    Last minute tweaks to Ninkasi-ish recipe?

    I'm going to do my second attempt at a Ninkasi Total Domination style beer. My first one tasted great, but was a higher FG than I wanted, and I didn't have Amarillo hops so I subbed Citra. A good beer but not very Ninkasi-like. Here's what I'm going to try this time: 11.25 lbs. 2-row 1.5...

    Transferring beer to keg/secondary

    This may be a silly question, but I don't want to screw my beer up. I am going to transfer my beer from the carboy primary into one of my corny kegs. My keg with my saison in it just got kicked, but has still been sealed and pressurized with co2 since it was kicked. Would most of you...

    Hungry yeast vs. lower attenuation yeast; achieving body

    I have had this question in the back of my mind for a bit. So lets say I wanted to make a brew with about 1.060 OG, and wanted to finish it around 1.015.All other things being equal, what would be different about the beer if I used a yeast that naturally had the right attenuation to bring the...

    Gravity Mountain Collaboration IPA guesses?

    I had this beer, a collaboration between Terminal Gravity and Double Mountain a couple months back. It was awesome, and almost maybe I think it's better than Ninkasi Total Domination. Here's what they had to say about ingredients: "GRAVITY MOUNTAIN combines the breweries’ two house...

    Yeast response to sound/tones/music

    Yes, I know, from now on just from that title you will all dismiss anything I say! :D But has there ever been any sort of study done on this that anyone knows of? (in modern times anyway...). I was just reading some history about ancient cultures singing and talking to their wort to get...

    Oatmeal Stout stuck at 1.027...pitch another yeast?

    So I made a version of the "Best Laid Plans" Oatmeal stout using Munich as the base. I ended up throwing more grain in there than the original, so my starting gravity ended up around 1.061. I pitched a nice starter of White Labs British Ale Yeast, and after about 3 weeks my gravity is stuck...

    Just brewed: Variation on Munich Oatmeal Stout

    After reading the "Best Laid Plans" thread about that Munich based oatmeal stout, I had to try a version. I wanted a stout with about 5.5% abv. so I kept the proportions that were used for a 6.5 gallon batch for my 5.5 gallon batch. I then also added 2 lbs. Marris Otter to the recipe. Here's...

    Critique my Total Domination attempt?

    I'm fairly new to posting on this forum, but it has been a huge help in getting my all grain brewing to be better each time I try it. Great resource. :mug: Well I am trying to brew something similar to my favorite IPA, Ninkasi Total Domination. I have gathered as much info as I can, and here...

    Whoa! Belgian Dubbel/Strong Dark is doing great!

    I've been learning stuff from this forum for a while, but this is my first post. Just thought I'd post about this Belgian Dubbel/Strong Belgian that I started about a week ago. I took what I learned from all kinds of different recipes, and wanted to make a delicious, strong (about 9%) hybrid...
