That Brewing is really about the "Process and Journey. Wish this was FB so I could "Like" some of the responses.

Not even sure what to search for on this. But I was wondering if it is possible measure the amount of fermentation left in the primary so you can bottle in time for it to carb.. On a BH tour I took, they mentioned that they "naturally carb" by putting the beer in a container before the...

"This is where you lost your temperature and saw the drop down to 135." No, it was down before I started the recirculation. Thought the insulation bag would keep it warm enough. "How big is your boil kettle?" Only 14 qt. It was too big of a grain bill for that size pot but I had already...

Hey guys and gals looking for a few answers and suggestions. Yesterday I attempted my first real all grain brew. It has a very large grain bill. For 3 gal I had almost 9lbs of grains. I don't have a mash ton so my LHBS owner told me to put a spigot on a 5 gal bucket and mash in that. He...

Unless that's some sort of slang term, I'm pretty sure that's illegal :p. Unless your in California. Good luck, :fro:

Just wanted to say this is the best batch I have made. I just drank the 3rd bottle of this batch and it is delicious!!! My Father In Law said it was one of the best IPAs he has ever had, and he is a IPA guy. I actually ran another batch as the recipe stated and tink I like this one better.

Watching the Masters trying my first Chimay Blue. :ban:

+1 Just finished my first batch and really like the convince. Lot cheaper then TAD, very easy to use and worked very well.

It has to be hosted from another site. Your site or Ficker or something like that. Then while your posting you click the insert image button (the one above with the mountain and sun. Then insert the url for the image. Most sites will have a place that you can copy and paste from. Hope this...

Just took a reading of this one, and it is sitting at a 1.030 right now (OG 1.090 now 1.030). Looks like all activity has stopped but it will be in the primary for at least 5 more days. Tasted what was in the hygrometer and it was very tasty. The HG sweetness is offset by the hops or vice...

Do a search and read as much as possible and decide for yourself if you want to use a secondary. The most progressive train of thought is to let it sit in the primary for 4 weeks test to make sure FG is stable and then bottle or keg from there. 55-60 may be a little low. try to get it...

They also have a tour every Sat. morning at 11:00. Well worth the $5.00. Free beer before and after the tour. But it can make for a long day if you have too many. :fro:

You obviously haven't heard about the brew vessel child-proofing kit? I gives off a 10,000 volt shock to any one under 10 years of age that even thinks about touching your brew vessel. ;) Let's not talk about the teenager deterrent. Good luck and welcome to the hobby. :fro:

Not really, I enjoy the process. We learn far more from our mistake then or successes, and sometimes those mistakes lead to something new. Other then the time I put into posting on the forum it was no more work then I expected. I'm going to let it go for a week or two then rack it over to a...

Starting at 1.090 OG any guess as to what the FG may be? Given the fact that it was a half batch it was double pitched.

Citra, HBS said Simcoe is hard to come by this time of year. Warrior 17.2 Amarillo 9.1 Citra 12.3

Thanks to all that responded. Ok, it's in the carboy now so I have time to explain. Recipe says .25 oz per addition= 1/4 oz half batch would equal 12.5 oz per addition = 1/8 oz Instead of doing it by 1/8 of an oz I (like an idiot) measured out 12.5 grams. I should have used 3.6 grams per...

Yes I did, but weighed it out wrong.
