@Alan - thank ;) @Dashingmad - my curiosity is piqued!!! That one may get made for next winter!

Alan - I'd sure appreciate any input you got once it's complete. I owe a buddy of mine some brew - and this was his request. I'm not a Carbomb drinker - so any help from your results would be greatly appreciated!

sweet deal! Thanks. Username: ajwaka

Hey Erik - did you brew this? How were your results? Looking to brew this for a friend and I'm not too familiar w/ Irish Car Bombs..... I have no difficulty getting drunk so I've never ordered a drink w/ an extra shot in it ;)

This was very insightful... Anyone else have any results they'd like to share with us? Chemnitz - I'm looking to brew this for the guy who got me my kegs for keggles. Any tips you'd add for someone like me who's not familiar w/ an actual irish car bomb? (Besides - drink up ;)

HA! After 3 beers ;) Thanks for the tip!

I determined last week that Randy Mosher's Smoked Habanero was my next beer... You say no heat in the final product. Does the boil take away the sting of the pepper? I'm looking around and everyone who seems to be claiming heat mention that the habanero's are added secondary. Don't get me...

Funny - I think all my brew sessions have been stress free and relaxing - but I'm sure that's because I adhere to homebrewing rule #1 - relax and have a home brew! =D

Hey guys - just found this thread. I'd love to come and watch an AG brew and meet other brewers. Let just anyone attend?

So, back to one of my original questions - is there anything negative about having a higher SG (.008 higher) than what is called? Or do you use a tool like ProMash / BeerSmith - to get your calculations right for grain to achieve the desired SG.

I played with ProMash months ago - but I'm still green and learning - so I wasn't too sure about much by the time the trial ended. I'll have to try that again. As to your answer about Mashing - so I'm assuming you have a Mashing kettle instead of a cooler - so you have to keep a flame on it...

Thanks for the Reply John! I added the grain to my Igloo Cooler mash tun - then added the 168F water and placed the lid on. One hour later - it was still 162F!

BierMuncher - thanks for the recipe - just did it this weekend. But I must say that as I was brewing - I didn't fully understand the Mash schedule. I have a 5 gal igloo cooler mash tun - It says to heat 3.5 gals to 166F and then it states 154F for 60 minutes - when I heat to 166F and add to...

Sorry, that was bad - but I couldn't help it:o I am fairly new to AG - did my 3rd & 4th batches this weekend and have some questions I hope you can answer or point me in the right direction. I'll bold my actual questions to help separate them out. My mash tun is a 5 Gal igloo cooler. 1st...

I moved to the country last year - and our ground water has high Nitrates. We have about a 3 gallon RO system hooked up, but I have to constantly fill gallon jugs for enough water - which is also time consuming - you never get 3 gallons out of it at a time! I purchased 4 - 2.5 gallon jugs of...

Welcome to all, self included... long time away from browsing. Looking for good brew (crew..... just hit Puhjols..... Yost is that 3 games in a row?... Heat em up!!!). From Evansville here... newbish AG!!!
