    Northern Brewer Surly Cynic clone

    I know this is a 10 year old thread, but wanted to share a copy of NB's recipe that is no longer available. I'm planning on brewing this tomorrow and was having trouble finding the recipe. I was able to pull it up using the "Way Back Machine"...

    Easy & Cheap Stainless Vent Hood

    You are very welcome! I'm glad I was able to contribute to this forum which has helped me. It is nice being able to brew indoors and not deal with the outside weather, especially in the winter!

    So who's brewing this weekend?

    Been lazy with brewing lately. Brewing Charlie Papazian's Duck Slippers Session Helles recipe today. I should have brewed this a couple months ago so it would be on tap already! https://www.homebrewersassociation.org/homebrew-recipe/duck-slippers-session-helles/

    HERMS – fly sparge 65% efficiency

This helps set the grain bed and prevents it from being compacted. I also stir the mash halfway through the sac rest...

    Wyeast 1469 - West Yorkshire

    I'd say give it a go. Probably will have better results with a malt forward brown compared with a hop forward brown ale.

    Specialty IPA: Red IPA India Red Ale

    Just be sure to aerate well, pitch enough healthy yeast, and control your fermentation temps. If you do those 3 things you will have a better chance of having a great beer in 4 weeks. I always prefer to use an English yeast strain like Wyeast 1968 London ESB for quick turn around brews. They...

    Specialty IPA: Red IPA India Red Ale

    I believe using two types of crystal malt will produce a more complex caramel character over one type. Pale Crystal malt will lend a balance of medium caramel color, flavor, and body. Dark Crystal will lend a complex sharp caramel flavor and aroma to beers. I would choose the US-05 yeast...
