    Fruit Beer watermelon wheat

    I just brewed this at my brewery in Jackson, TN. The primary has slowed and I added 6 gallons of cold pressed watermelon juice from 16 watermelons yesterday! Very excited to get this beer on tap!

    My new mash tun

    Thanks smccarter! The thing has been working perfect for quite a while now. The 12" falso bottom is what I use in mine I measured it last night. Fits great

    My new mash tun

    Is the 12" one the same one that is used in the standard drink cooler?

    It really doesn't take any longer than any beer that you would dry hop. Figure 3 weeks fermentation and then bottle conditioning. Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Home Brew mobile app

    Tennessee 3hp Glycol Chillers

    I know this is a lot more than homebrewers need to cool anything down but it is always good to post things here too since there is so many people going pro now days. I also have them posted on probrewer. I have two brand new 3hp 220v 3phase glycol chiller units for sale. They are Chineese...

    I'm glad you like it! I'm opening a brew pub in a few months and it will be on tap every year when watermelons are in season.

    Yes that extract is just fine. You can rehydrate or sprinkle it on top lots of people do it both ways. I see no reason why you couldn't leave the aromatic out of it at all. It will still come out great!

    That's odd most of the time 5 cups of juice is more than enough. Glad you like it though.

    It will start to ferment because you added the sugary juice to it. Your just fine!

    Fruit Beer watermelon wheat

    Its about 5.5%abv and the watermelon juice is about the same gravity as the wort so it won't give you any more abv but it will increase the volume just a little. I mash mine at 155 normally for a medium mouth feel. Just brew as normal and be very clean when handling the watermelon and you will...

    Fruit Beer watermelon wheat

    I took my brew program and added .5 gallons of water and .45lbs of dry malt to get to a 1.040 gravity and then added it to the original recipe which gave me the .004 difference. I may be wrong but that's how I got that number.

    It would be the same as adding .5 gallons of water and .45 pounds of dry malt. It will only raise the gravity .004 points
