    New hop grower help

    Thanks guys. I think that is my main problem. I bought a moisture meter and even though they seem to be drying out up top it is still saying it is very wet. I will try mixing in perlite and see if that helps. The multihead is continuing to brown unfortunately. The centennial and Columbus look...

    New hop grower help

    Okay it looks like it says powdery mildew but I don't see anything about downy so I'm guessing I should go find another one that says downy.

    New hop grower help

    I used an organic potting mix that I got from Home Depot. I may have part of a bag in the shed I can get a picture of tomorrow if it will help.

    New hop grower help

    Thanks for the input everyone. I am worried about the possibility of downy mildew on the plants, which is why I cut the first 2 plants down. From what I've read about it that's what needed to be done. I am fine with leaving this plant alone, I just worry about the health of it since it seems to...

    New hop grower help

    The mulch was originally there to insulate for a random freeze we had one night after the first bines emerged. I pulled most of the mulch off a few weeks ago to try and help dry it out. I will remove the rest. Yes they are potted. The pots are plastic half barrel pots. I drilled a bunch of...

    New hop grower help

    So this year I got 3 hop plants from Great Lakes Hops. Centennial, Columbus and multihead. They started out great but after a little bit they seemed to stop growing which I know can be quite common with first year plants but eventually they started turning yellow then brown. I think now I had...

    WLP862 Cry Havoc

    I made an American Stout with it and fermented in the mid 60s. It turned out fantastic.

    Coop Ale Works F-5 Clone

    I have been wanting to try and make a clone of this but haven't gotten around to it yet. I found this clone recipe a while back that seems like a good place to start. http://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/123552/coop-f5-clone I would make a few changes to that recipe if I were to...

    Simcoe Mosaic Citra APA

    I just bottled an IPA with simcoe, mosaic, and citra. The sample I had at bottling tasted amazing. Your recipe looks pretty good to me.

    Brewer's Best IPA kit

    Oklahoma Only Brewers Group on the HBT!!!

    Just thought I'd sound off in this thread. I live in NW OKC and have been brewing for a little over a year. I do partial mash and I mainly brew hoppy beers. I would love to meet more brewers and learn more about this hobby.

    Brewer's Best IPA kit

    I made this exact kit early this year. I added the pound of DME at the beginning of the boil and the two cans of LME at flameout. It turned out awesome. I also added 2oz of cascade for dry hopping.

    Online retailers

    I'm a big fan of Austin Homebrew. They have tons of recipes which you can get any of them in extract, PM and all grain. I got several partial mash kits from them and loved them all. Plus they have affordable flat rate shipping.

    Austin Homebrew Supply

    AHS is awesome. I recently ordered 2 PM kits from them during their free shipping deal. When I got them they had given me the wrong grains for one of the kits. I made them aware of it and in less than 24 hours they had shipped out the correct grains to me. I am very pleased with how they...

    Dogs and brewing

    And these are all reasons why my dogs are trained to stay out of the kitchen. Sometimes when I'm throwing one of their toys for them to fetch it accidentally goes in the kitchen. They can be going full speed and will come to a screeching halt at the doorway. I do fully expect them to be sitting...

    Awesome hop bonus!

    Thanks. Yeah that thought crossed my mind too. The more I think about it I'm starting to think maybe I will do 2oz for aroma and 2oz for dry hop. I'm pretty excited for this brew. It came with US-05 dry yeast and I decided to swap it with WLP001. Also since I have started doing partial mashes...

    Awesome hop bonus!

    So a few weeks ago my buddy finally decided to get into homebrewing so me being a good friend I offered to take him to the LHBS and pick out everything he needed and help him brew his first batch. I had planned on starting him on the brewers best IPA but when we got there I noticed the store...

    What's the worst craft brew (commercial) you've had?

    Leinenkugel's berry Weiss. My wife got it and neither of us could finish a bottle. I think we forced it upon friends that visited to get rid of it.

    What Brewers Best Extract Kits do you like?

    I cracked open my first BB IPA today and it is really good. The only thing I did outside the recipe was add 2oz of cascade to dry hop. This was my first time dry hopping and I'm very glad I did it. It smells amazing. I like smelling this beer almost as much as I like drinking it.
