I had this same problem with a Rochefort 10 clone. I poured each bottle into a sanitized keg, slowly against the side wall of the keg to minimize aeration. Force carbed and it was perfect. Just be careful when pouring not to splash the beer too much and it should be fine. I did not add any...

Are there any militaria collectors here? I collect WWII military items, mostly medals and badges.

Hi deremer, My recipe is all extract. I have sent you a PM with a few links for you to check out if you want to do a partial-mash. My recipe for a 5 gallon batch: Specialty grains 6 oz Crystal 60 4 oz Caravienne 2 oz Honey malt Extract 7lbs, 8oz Wheat LME Hops 1oz Mt Hood 6.0 AA...

I have to disagree. My first experiment with the pumpkin hefeweizen was a half-batch that I did not add any spices to at all. The pumpkin puree was baked at 400F spread out on a cookie sheet for about 30 minutes. The beer had a distinct pumpkin flavor to it, just no clove/cinnamon flavors. I...

I just finished drinking a batch of Pumpkin Wheat that I brewed a few weeks ago. Basically it's a dunkleweizen extract recipe with four of the 29 oz cans of Libby's pumpkin and a pumpkin spice pack from AHS. Turned out really good! I can post the ingredients if anyone is interested. Cheers, Brian

Are you looking for stainless or aluminum? I just bought a 60qt (15 Gallon) aluminum pot from here Stock Pots : Discount Stock Pots at Wares Direct Discount Restaurant, Janitorial and Office Supplies The shipping was a little high, around $40, but it is an oversized item. Still a good deal in...

Hi Brandon, I am drinking a bottle of your Graff as I type this:cross:, good stuff dude. I followed your recipe exactly, using 1/2 oz Sterling 5.9AA and Nottingham yeast. Carbed for only two weeks and it's perfect. I have to wonder about adding a "spice tea" to this after primary...

SFS, Ingenius. I have seen that vessel before, on the History channel I think. You are right about needing a beer on that one! Personally I prefer the one's that can submerge completely! Cheers, Brian

I brewed a batch of Double Bastard ale Friday night after work. Pitched 2 vials of White Lab's California ale yeast. When I came home late Saturday night after a metal concert:rockin: and a day of drinking:drunk: the airlock was bubbling like mad. :rockin: At 5:45 am I was awakened by a loud...

This kit was my first brew about 4 months ago, it turned out good. I will say it had a bit of an aftertaste after 3 weeks in the bottle, almost salty, but that faded as the beer aged a few more weeks. Definitely one I would do again. Cheers, Brian

I love peppers of all kinds and I can't wait to brew your recipe. I will let you know how it turns out, thanks! Cheers, Brian

A slice of tomato pie would be great with my homebrew right now, sorry for turning this thread into a food thread, but there are just too many good things in THIS area!

Tomato pie, yes. Thick, soft bread with a thick layer of homemade sauce and lots of garlic and olive oil, served cold like cake. Now you are speaking my language! Chicken riggies--no idea, but I bet it's good.

Pork roll is awesome too, I make it with sauerkraut and noodles and everyone loves it. You guys are making me hungry.

Scrapple beer...yummm. I actually just made scrapple 2 nights ago, it is one of my favorite breakfast foods that is good at any time of the day. Sure it's made from the scraps, but the whole pig tastes great IMO! Besides, you all would eat a hot dog, right? Think of all the crap and additives...

Yeah, the whole "green" thing gets on my nerves. Worse than that: Hybrid Give me a break! They need to cut the crap and go right to hydrogen. "ooh but a hydrogen tank in your car would be like having a bomb on board" WTF do they think a tank of gasoline and a grid of Lithium-ion batteries...

You will be fine, if anything you will have slightly over-carbed apfelwein. Cheers from Wilmington, DE! Brian

You could have sanitized your arm...I did it once with no ill result. But drink it up none the less! Cheers, Brian

Rigid Rotor is a very cool name, and a cool emblem IMO. My brewery name is Sullen Cross Brewing, after my Great grandfather who was know to drink too much and be "sullen and cross" at times. I have yet to create an emblem. Cheers, Brian

Maybe a snail ale? Or a Doppelbug
