T-58, the "T" stands for "trappist" so I think this yeast will be ok for a Belgian-style beer. WB-06 is the more appropriate strain from Fermentis as the "WB" stands for "Wit Bier." As far as hops go, forget the Cascade hops and stick with the German hops and use only a bittering addition...

I can't give you the exact recipe, but I'll give some tips... There's no Flaked barley, Munich malt, Brown sugar, molasses, or milk sugar (it's an oatmeal stout, not milk stout) in BORIS. Belgian Pale malt is inappropriate as well. This recipe might also benifit from Black patent and...

Not just a photograph, but aroma and a picture would give someone with good hop knowledge a better chance at figuring it out. Post a picture of a mature cone anyway and see what you get.

This is an old post but given the time of year I feel a reply is appropriate. As far as food dehydrators go - commercial hop farms dry their hops with 140*F air. No significant lupilin degradation has been found at temps <180*. The biggest problem associated with home dehydrators is the...

First, I noticed that youre from Cleveland yet you fly those puke colors? Interesting ;) All current and most future recipes were/will be brewed on a home system first. We currently have 9 offerings and I'm currently working on some new additions to the family in the garage. Fred the...
