    What I did for beer today

    I checked on my Philly special smoked Cherry Saison from the AHBA recipe from the BrewGuru app. First attempt at it before I do a Collab with another brewer for entry in our local home brew competition with home brew club in Colorado Springs!

    Superstratum All Grain Recipe Kit Advice

    I don't have a Mill no, but could bring to local brewery supply store and get some assistance. I guess I'll have to take a look at the crush but I may be unclear as to what I'm looking at but this gives me something to review.

    Surly Grindcore clone attempt

    Works best when not frozen. I'm going to have the fellas from Pikes Peak brew club try this for our January Porter/Stout group. Some are more professional as far as tastings go so I'm excited to get some feedback.

    Surly Grindcore clone attempt

    Pulled a bottle out, chilled it in freezer then got pulled away to take my son to hockey then got delayed coming home and had a beer Slurpie as first pour! Tasted really amazing though! I wanted to put it on vanilla ice cream! Was nice mild coffee, vanilla and cacao with the Warrior hop...

    What I did for beer today

    BIAB brewed the morebeer.com Strata Gem Pale Ale recipe. Idaho gem and Strata hopped Pale. Tasted sweet after brewing and should setup nicely. Safale us-05 and into the fermenter. This is a simple recipe I was able to knock out as I have 2 empty Fermenters now after bottling my pre Christmas...

    Surly Grindcore clone attempt

    Nice, thanks for noticing. I actually liked it and was a first for me. Separating the grains at purchase and grinding them separately dark from light then steeping over night ahead of brew day. I did try and focus on keeping that aspect to reduce heat interaction for both the coffee addition...

    Surly Grindcore clone attempt

    https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/print/1219462 If anyone is interested and know the beer. I made this beer off a few ideas from other recipes as a starting point, as I got from their website what the grain bill is and hops and yeast used. The first test from fermenter are...

    Build your own recipe vs pre-built recipe kit

    I just put together a recipe myself based on some general known ingredients of an existing favorite beer of mine and found a close recipe for the same style, adjusted and brewed it. It was fun and something new for me and my buddy. There's different satisfaction you get vs. repeating what you...

    What I did for beer today

    Awesome, so dumb question but would you Muslin bag the peppers and dump the 'juice' into fermenter or simply Dump it all in without muslin bag?

    What I did for beer today

    Wow nice great detail. I could split the batch perhaps then half your recipe as being new to me, I'd be down with at least having half that works out worse case. How long should this mix "stew" for before adding to fermenter? I'm thinking maybe to reverse the addition and dry hop last...

    What I did for beer today

    How did it turn out? I have some peppers from the garden and a fermenting kama citra cut never tried this, but I'm always interested in Adjuncts!

    Pliny The Elder Yeast Amount

    https://byo.com/recipe/russian-river-brewing-co-s-pliny-the-elder-clone/ This is what I worked with, of course some adjustments has to be made in grain bill at homebrew store as they couldn't give my exact amounts and did whatever rounding they had to do but I was in a rush before they closed...

    Pliny The Elder Yeast Amount

    I just created this beast of a beer and this was what my numbers were: OG = 1.074 (mine 1.070 ) FG = 1.014 ( mine1.010 ) ABV = 8.3% (mine 7.88%) Yeast: Wyeast 1056 (American Ale) (no pre) Did I get close? I'd say yes. How could it have reached full attention? Starter? Maybe that would have...

    Floating hops in secondary fermenter

    Preventing blow off as sometimes the lids in the Bubblers tend to do. I've had it happen and used a milk crate and bands to keep the top from popping. I have to check it daily or more otherwise as eager fermentations tend to generate much pressure on these at times. I had a Kolsch extract batch...

    Floating hops in secondary fermenter

    Any bubbling left of any kind at any rate to says "let me be". Patience. And always take a matching reading before next steps -yup, lessons. I don't think at this point you want to be taking any more shortcuts but at least with the bottling bucket it will give you another opportunity to clear...
