    Avery duganA IPA

    Had my first Avery duganA IPA on draft last night, gotta say this was probably the best IPA I've ever tried. Tons of hop aroma and flavor. Just looked at Averys website they say the hops are Chinook, Centennial, and Columbus, what a great hop combo.

    Best time to add acid malt?

    If I've brewed the same batch before and know exactly how much acid malt to add, when would be the best time to add it? I was thinking 5 or 10 minutes before I dough in the full grain bill to give the acid a chance to distribute throughout the water? or this is pointless, and I should just...

    Calcium Chloride increased my efficiency 10% ?

    I didn't think doing a Calcium adjustment could raise my efficiency 10%, I was suprised. I BIAB, full volume mash, with no sparge and consistently get 63-67% efficiency into the boiler. My last batch I added 5 grams of Calcium Chloride to increase my Calcium levels from 7 ppm to 75 ppm, mainly...

    Got a 39 from a BJCP Grand Master II

    I'm psyched, first comp I entered, I was just looking for some feedback on a flaw I tasted in my APA, I think it was with the fermentation. The cover score sheet says it advanced to a mini-Best of Show round too, though I'm not sure what that means. It was the New England Regional Hombrew...

    Dry Hopping in the bottle?

    I was thinking of getting a 12 pack of something with low ibu's maybe Michelob light, and some Harpoon UFO and throwing in a few hop pellets, recapping, let it sit at 60 for 5 or 6 days, then chill it for a day, and strain it into a glass. I figured it would be a fast, easy way to test some...
