    Adding coffee + leaving headspace in secondary

    Hey guys, I brewed another coffee stout and want to experiment with adding real coffee (cold-brewed) and bourbon to part of the batch. I have 5 gallons in a 6 gallon bucket right now. I have two questions: 1) I want to add bourbon to only 1 gallon. Would it be ok to rack 1 gallon to a jug for...

    Starter smells estery... What should I expect?

    Made a coffee stout tonight. Hit my OG of 1.063, then pitched a starter made from Safale S-04 that I kept in a 60 degree closet for 2 nights. Maybe that's too warm... Though I used English hops and understand this is somewhat of an English-style yeast, I smelled a lot of esters in the bottle...

    First brew - left the lid on!

    Hey all, Longtime lurker/researcher, and finally went in on an all-grain 2-gal recipe as my first batch. That's the biggest I'll be brewing for a while - my sink, flat top stove, and studio apartment can't handle much else, plus I still like buying beer and sampling new kinds. Anyway, I...
