This recipe comes from the Jamil podcast. They comfirmed it being cloned on the show, and I brewed it once and was very happy with the results. 10.58 lb Pale Malt (2 Row) US (2.0 SRM) Grain 75.95 % 1.39 lb Wheat Malt, Bel (2.0 SRM) Grain 9.98 % 0.70 lb Caramel/Crystal Malt -120L (120.0...

How much of each spice did you use, and when?

I bought and crushed my grain at my local homebrew store, and I have a feeling the setting on the crusher was not were it should have been because I got terrible efficiency. I know I should have made sure, but I'm just curious what a typical setting is?

I would also recommend Surly Brewing Company. Their Coffee Bender is delicious. I'm definitely looking forward to Dogfish, Stone, and any other brewery that doesn't distribute to Minnesota.

I would have to agree that the yeast are not giving us beer farts. Whenever I drink a lot of Miller High Life, I'm clearing out rooms all day.

Hypothetically speaking, if you were going to brew a 5 gallon batch of these. What would the grain bill and hop amounts be? It sounds like an amazing beer.

I still don't understand why Stone doesn't ship to Minnesota.

I just bottled my 2 below clone last night, and I was surprised how much darker mine was from the actually beer. Was everyone elses clone a lot darker? Just curious. BTW, it tasted fantastic!

I brewed a New Belgium 2 below clone that called for 4 lbs. of grains, and I thought that was way to much. I just tasted a sample of it and there is tons of flavor. So I guess I did need of those specialty grains.

I want to bring a bunch of homebrew with me for Christmas. Before I drive home my car will be outside for 4 days in Minneapolis(BTW, it's freakin' cold here). I was wondering if there is way to prevent the beer from freezing as it sits in my car for 4 days?

Alright now I have it straight. Thanks

I'm brewing a recipe that calls for 1 oz of magnum hops and boil them for 60 minutes. If I do a partial boil, does it make sense to decrease the hops to around .5 oz?

I have a recipe that calls for 2 packs of yeast. I wasn't sure if both should be pitched at the same time. Here is the recipe: malts 6.6 light DME 2.25 crystal 40L 1.25 munich dark .5 victory malt hops; .5 magnum 1 oz liberty 1 oz sterling Yeast American ale wyest labs #1056...

Do you pitch both of the yeast packs at the same time?

I actually just bought a four pack of the 09' yesterday. I had one last night and it was fantastic! Now I'm going to let the other three age and see how better they get.

Here is a recipe I have for an oatmeal stout. I was wondering if I can just steep all of the grains or do the oatmeal and munich grains need to be mashed? 5.0 lbs Unhopped Light Dry Malt Extract 1.0 lbs Flaked Oats .75 lbs Munich Malt (Crushed) .75 lbs Chocolate Malt (Crushed) .75 lbs...

RIP Oktoberfest. You were my one and only true love.

I'm 24, and just brewed my first batch 2 days ago. Can't wait to drink it!!

Thanks for the advice. I think I'll just put a lock on the door so I stop checking on it.

Brewed my first batch last night. I woke up this morning with the airlock bubbling nicely. I know that isn't the way to determine fermentation, but later this afternoon the airlock isn't showing anything. Just curious if something might be wrong.
