    Bob's Beer from Georgetown Brewing clone suggestions

    I am attempting to make a close version of Bob's Beer, from Georgetown Brewing in Seattle. So if you've had it any suggestion is appreciated. Here is the info I got from Georgetown: The yeast is our proprietary ale yeast, OG looks like it was 1.063 and TG was 1.016 2row, c-60, munich...

    How to change abv after brewing

    Good point and excellent description Feinbera, and techbrewie. I suppose less than an ounce for every 20 oz bottle is not going to be noticeable. Certainly not by me. So I won't risk doing anything differently after all. And next time I'll just start with a larger beginning amount of water.

    Pulling bottles from your neighbor's recycle bin - thrifty or across the line?

    Where I live the trash is personal property until the waste department picks it up. Police cannot look at it until it is in the trash truck, and police give out tickets to people who take from the recycle bin. That said, I don't want bottles all the time and I leave a note on their door of...
