I am easing my wife into the world of hoppy beers and can sometimes entice her with some fruity beers. Has anyone tried racking this over some fresh strawberries? I am thinking the citra and strawberries would blend well and want to try it with half the batch. Let me know if anyone has some...

Sorry for this Noob post but i am only on all grain batch #3. Mash temp I see is 154, what temp should i sparge at (my other 2 recipes had a mash and sparge temp)? Any helps appreciated. Thanks in advance!

To the guys that stated they cut the sweetness back a bit: did you cut the concentrate back? Also for the keggers what kind of psi did you use?

Had a good one while drinking at the bar. I told a guy that on a naturally carbed beer you really dont want to drink the last quarter inch of the beer and for best flavor it really should be drank out of a glass. His response was "That is BS and there is no such thing as a beer that isnt...

It looks like I was able to save it. I pitched another pack of yeast about 12 hours after the first and last night about another 12 hours later it was bubbling away. Time to sit back relax and let the easy part take place. Thanks again!

One more question. I thought I was good! I pitched the wyeast packet about 20 hours after popping it. After pitching I noticed the packet said good to og 1.060. Should I go buy a second pack and pitch?

I just wanted to say thanks for the help I hit the og in the nose in a 60 minute boil and the beer smells delicious. Looking forward to the finished product!

I would like to try this as my second all grain batch (first being a SMASH) but I have one question I can't seem to understand. I noticed mentions of a 90 minute + boil. Why would this be neccessary? Is there more proteins to boil off? Also doing a 90 minute boil would the first hop addition...

Im in!:rockin:

This is going to sound aweful but i took it as soon as i cut the heat to the boil. I did it this way just in case i came up short and needed to add some sugar. The wort was more than likely 212ish.

I think I figured out my issue. I took the sample before the wort was fully cooled not realizing the temp could alter my reading. Sounds like I definitely just had a bad reading. Thanks for your help guys! Sent from my iPad using Home Brew

Started with about 6.5 actually ended with around 4 and didn't top off because of the low reading. Sent from my iPad using Home Brew

I guess I should have specified I opted to do a full boil so the og was taken from a full boil. Would that make a difference? Sent from my iPad using Home Brew

Hey Everyone, I want to say this forum has been a huge help so far and I look forward to using it for the remainder of my homebrewing hobby! I have an issue with a beer I brewed three weeks ago. It is the Brewers Best Summer ale, it is only my 3rd homebrew beer. I brewed it 3 weeks ago...
