No more info on how it turned out? I'd like to try this recipe how were the results?

too bad this isnt a little closer, im in the canton area and would have been interested in some 2 row...

thats really sweet all together when its done, thats some major creativity all in all.

from what i understand is that people that have homebrewed IPAs and the like said that with time some of the characteristics of the hoppy/bitter-ness will subside with time. i do not know this from personal experience, only with what i've read on this website though.

yes, it does get a good settle on the bottom, cleaning is snap.

I got this delicious brew hanging out in bottles and I'm ever so anxious to just open one but I know that's a bad idea lol. I'm going to open one each of these three weeks I'm letting it carb just to see the changes that progress. I can already see the light film of yeast on the bottom of the...

Something like 70 or 75 percent efficiency is normal if you go over your gravity by some points like that you'll pretty much just have beer a bit more alcoholic

i pitched my notty into my batch of haus pale ale when it was around low-mid 80's. i wast proud of it, but it took forever to get my temps down, and i had to get to bed, so i did it and the yeasties had no problem working away, i've bottled that batch and it tasted great before i did.

from what ive read in a lot of posts it seems that there is a significant number of people that let their beer sit in the primary for the length of time they primary, like 3-4 weeks etc. what i was wondering is that when you guys do that, i imagine you just dump everything in your boil kettle...

i can understand what you mean, lol. im waiting on the haus pale ale i just bottled yesterday, i cant wait to crack open that first bottle. i plan to open a bottle ever week for the three weeks im letting it carb up, just to notice the changes in the time period im letting it sit. im doing this...

i actually just finished fermenting a batch of that and now its resting happily carbonating in bottles. my fermentation seemed slightly slow going at first as well, but i was not around it to check on it as much as i would have since its at my father in laws house. it did bubble though after a...

BOTTLED TODAY!!! tasted GREAT. there was a little left over that couldnt fit in a bottle so i drank it, and it was definitely tasty. i got 51 bottles total, and their capped and tucked away for carb time. everythings cleaned up and ready for the next brew. hopefully bee caves robust porter...

i shop at the grape now, they are a great place to get supplies at. there prices are very competitive with most online stores especially if you have to pay shipping online, or if the grape is close to you. i havent tried their kits, but i did do an AG of edworts haus pale ale with all...

well its tasty! im drinking some now and its not bad at all, the only suggestion i am going to try for my self is that i need brewers yeast, it leaves a bready malty flavor thats nasty in pop, and less lemon! only 1 tbsp next time

well ill see how much it makes a difference. ill also pick up some brewers yeast soon to see how much better it works than my bread yeast. lol

well i dont know how to answer your question but i can say that i have done a bee cave haus pale ale AG with water in my house that is naturally very soft (or so the company that supplies it says) and its turning out great. its about to be bottled this weekend and the hydrometer samples taste...

i know thats what im hoping. im using the plastic tube my hydrometer came in, and its suitable for measurement i believe. i tested the hydrometer against water, and it came up ~1.000 so i believe this particular hydrometer system is taking correct readings. ill be more thorough with future...

okay well i pulled some and took a grav reading. my hydrometer is measured for 70 degrees F so i warmed the beer up to that temp, and i took several readings and they all read ~1.011, so according to this recipe its done, but like i said, all i have to go by is my proposed 1.040-1.050 OG, but...

well i didnt take a grav, because i'd hate to keep opening it, but i did move it to a warmer area. hopefully itll be alright, but i sure can smell the beer when i open it, and alcohol is VERY noticable

im getting ready for bottling this weekend and for the hell of it i took the temperature of my room/beer because it feels really chilly in the room i have it in. i opened my pail, and BEER/ALCOHOL smell hit me in the face lol. one question is though, is that my room is in the mid 50's! i used...
