Mine fermented right around that temp and it came out great. As far as I know notty isn't a terribly sensitive yeast.

Here's mine. Delicious. Thanks for a great recipe. I BIAB'd it even.

Im sure there are some good tid bits in the 340 posts but for me it was make sure to stir it twice a day. Releasing the suspended carbonation is crucial to fermentation.

The fermentation is no joke. This one almost blew the lid off. Impressive. Pics to follow in the coming weeks. I am excited about this one.

Brewed this yesterday. The wort smelled and looked delicious. Will post pics in a couple weeks.

Stop racking to secondary.

Dont worry about cooling the kegs build a jockey box. I'm building one for serving outside in the summer. It's just a cooler with either hose or metal coiled up. The beer passing through the tubing and ice cools it off. I'm going to try mine with 20' of liquid tubing.

Two weeks in. I dropped 2lbs of the malt for my recipe but still had an OG of 1.061. I tossed it on a notty cake and here it sits at 1.012. I dry hopped it tonight. Drank the entire sampler warm and flat as it was and it tasted great. Awesome recipe. Will update in a couple weeks when its in...

Here's mine after a week and a half in the keg. Awesome recipe.

I avoid bars because I'm on the high side of 30 and worked the door at a local bar for a couple years. Been there, done that. The food and beer we make at my house beats the hell outta 90% of the places. On the plus side, cheaper, better quality, no driving. On the negative side, no new cleavage...

Central Street Farmhouse - Brew Shop in Bangor has some good reviews. It's a great time of year for a N-S road trip through Maine. If you need any good pub stops let me know.

I had an ale that tasted metallic. A couple weeks in bottles and it was awesome.

Very cool. Sometimes the accidents lead to some good stuff.

It was Baxter brewing. They just opened in january in lewiston. Maine Beer Company wasn't in attendance, sadly because I have heard great things. Sent from my iPhone using HB Talk

Isn't the point of being at a beer festival to get feedback on your beer? (as a brewer). I don't have a problem giving my opinion to anyone, and it was an opinion shared by many who enjoy IPA's. I am afterall his target market. I also told him what I liked about it as well. It wasn't like I...

My wife and I attended the Maine Beer Festival yesterday, and got to sample Maine's finest. While we did find some good beer, it was pretty cool to discover that in most cases we preferred our styles to those of even the craft breweries. I did have the chance to ask some brewers some questions...

I give my wife headaches...

Another one here. I brew late friday night after my wife and daughter are sleeping. Usually, I'm pitching yeast around 1am ish. Sent from my iPhone using HB Talk

Brewed this last night. Slightly different hops schedule and a couple less lb's of 2row, but threw it on a Notty cake and it's bubblin' away happy this morning. Excited to try it.
