I would just move to a pound of C40 and see if that helps. You could always mash higher and see if that gives you what you want. Hop bill sounds great.

"Metallic flavors are usually caused by unprotected metals dissolving into the wort but can also be caused by the hydrolysis of lipids in poorly stored malts. Iron and aluminum can cause metallic flavors leaching into the wort during the boil. The small amount could be considered to be...

I am definitely more happy doing early morning brews. I'm normally done before lunch and can have the rest of the day to do whatever is on the agenda. Hose water temps are lower in the morning which is important in summer brewing.

So, what is the feedback on the recipe listed above from mmonacel

This is a nice recipe. If I brew this one again, I'll actually decrease the late EKG to suit my preference for this style. Nice malt profile though. Thanks for posting this one. Definitely reliable.

Nugget Nectar!

Dry hopping a bucket (primary) is easiest and has never caused a problem for me. If you are worried about loss to hops, account for that in your recipe and increase the volume of grains.

I am along time nugget nectar lover. I recently had hop slam and wow what a beer. I can't get hop slam near me so am jealous of you being able to get both! Enjoy fresh!

Had to build a box to keep the cold air part of a closed system.

Taps mounted and ready to go.

Had to run the lines up the wall in the garage to the wall behind the dining room wall.

Had to move kegerator to the garage, so there had to be a compromise. Taps in the wall keep the beer handy.

So, what's up with this now? How's progress?

I want to like them but they give me the sensation of gagging. I think it is a combination of the yeast and something in Belgian malt. It's like eating a whole bunch of bananas or something. I'm not talking about the hefe type banana flavor either which I also can't drink.

If you don't own an auto siphon, get one.

Natty boh at an Os game, pbr or bud light like when it is a thousand degrees out and you just cut the grass. Miller light when at my neighbors house. Killians at some point in the fall. Guinness whenever I see it poured properly. Heck, I've even tried some sort of Budweiser red ale that was...
