I'm thinking about doing a bacon maple porter. Did you get much bacon flavor doing it this way? Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

How did you get the chalk paint to stick to the top? The guy at Home Depot told me it would peel right off? Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

I have the same question. I'm looking to do a maple porter and I'm concerned that adding it to the fermenter, it won't blend. Any thoughts? Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Glad to hear yours worked out! I will post the recipe. I aerated it just by hand; splashing tossing it back and forth between the bucket and pot. I used California ale yeast (liquid) and I did make a starter for it. Og was 1.110

I brewed an imperial stout (extract) 7 weeks ago. My recipe calculator suggested a final gravity of 1.026 but it's stuck at 1.033. Do I pitch more yeast or is this ok?

Don't worry too much. When you open the lid check to see if there is some krausen on sides or take a gravity reading to make sure it's fermenting. I've had a couple beers fully ferment with relatively no air lock activity.

Thanks for the tips everybody.

No I did not dry hop in the keg

I'm new to kegging. I just tapped my first keg of double IPA. my problem is that hops keep clogging the spring in the poppet. I can barely get a couple ounces through before it clogs again. Then I have to depressureize it and take the poppet off to clean out. . Any suggestions or do I need to...

Thanks for the help. I bottled it last night and it didnt taste or smell like mold so I guess I'm good to go! Must of been so ferment splatter

It's awesome! At least I think so. Ppl who love really hoppy beers always love it. Even ppl who don't like IPAs often like because its not too bitter. I live in NJ but I've been getting it when I go to VT for about 2 years now. When I started drinking it I was sometimes able to get it at a beer...

Thanks everybody. Already made the trade

Fermentation was about 68-70 degrees F. The pumpkin was boiled.
