    First time using lager yeast wlp820

    I just fermented a helles back 1.064 og with wlp 820 at 55, it took off quickly. Taste before cold crashing was clean, no fusel alcohols or other of flavors. Going to keg today. Point is, if it's sluggish at 50- warm it up a bit. 50 is on the low side door this yeast per white labs.

    Going to Munich! Any suggestions?

    If you want a day trip for hard to find beer, go to windischeschenbach in East Bavaria near the Czech border for Zoigl. If you do a Google search you will find information enough to get you there including a calendar from which you can determine which one of the several Zoiglstube is open that...

    Who in the heck cares about how much head a beer has, and how long it lasts??

    I like correct carbonation and pour. If the kegerator is balanced the pour will not have much head. Similar when pouring from a bottle. I don't like a cup full of foam but that can be easily managed.

    Malt Experiment for a Black IPA — Blackprinz vs Midnight Wheat

    I prefer dehusked caraffa III. I like my black IPA to taste as little like a stout as possible.

    So who's brewing this weekend?

    So I get stationed in the one post I never expected to find any decent beer, yet lo and behold I find a stock pile of Westy 12 here... In Korea. Apparently the army, or at least aafes does look out for us.

    Lagers!.

    I always do number 2... About once a day. Also, I cool to as low as I can with ground water, then chill in fermentation chamber to pitch temp (also number 2).

    Brew in a bag malt liquor

    I made one with equal quantities pilsner, Munich and flashed corn for OG of 1070. I used three hop additions using continental European hops for about 20 IBUs. I used 34/70 for yeast. I passed a lot of it around to friends and the local clubs, and got told it tasted like malt liquor. I liked it...

    Advice on buying a grain mill

    I've had a Cereal Killer for a couple of years now. I'm sure it's not the best, but I have put a bunch of grain through it without issues, and would be loath to part with it for the price.
