    Belgian Dark Strong Ale Easy Chimay Blue clone

    It's still at 1.030. How big of a starter should I make for this?

    Belgian Dark Strong Ale Easy Chimay Blue clone

    It was still at 1.030 last Monday. That same day, I added some yeast nutrient and stirred the wort. I'll check the gravity again tonight.

    Another Stuck Ferment

    I don't have my temps tightly controlled. I can tell you that It did get cold here right before it slowed to a halt.

    I need 11 Wyeast packs Mr. Malty ?

    I've waited 24 and 36 hours before pitching before. Many have waited longer, some with better results than others. I plugged my bucket bung with a starsan soaked cotton ball.

    My new electric build....in progress

    Okay, just keep in mind that 212 is the boiling point of water, at sea level.

    What's the altitude where you brew? Water boils at ~207 at 2500 feet.

    BYO Guinness Foreign Extra Stout clone

    I'd like to brew a Guinness Foreign Extra Stout clone. My search led me to BYO. The recipe i found there calls for brewing two separate batches and mixing the two just before bottling, I'd like to avoid that if it doesn't add to the final product. Any ideas why the author (Chris Colby) chose to...

    Routeinely Stuck Fermentations

    It's always a good idea to check your tools. Get some distilled water and find out what your hydrometer is telling you. It should read 1.000 @ 60 F
