    Coffee addition to low-ish og porter.

    Ok, so my wife has been requesting a coffee porter for a while now. I brewed it using the brew in a bag method. Long story short, I managed to add too much top up water after the mash. Ended up with around a 1/2 gallon too much wort as a result. My post Boil OG came up to 1.047. The target...

    Bourbon stout extract or partial mash recipe needed.

    Does anyone have a tried and true bourbon stout recipe that they can share? I would like to avoid ordering a kit online if possible, and pick up all of the ingredients at the local home brew store, thus my request for a recipe. My preference is towards bourbon stouts that are heavy on the...

    suggestions for beer using fresh Hallertau hops?

    A friend of mine gave me a whole lot of Hallertau hops that he harvested from his vines. I dried them, then vacume sealed, and froze them immediately. My question is whether anyone has an extract recipe that uses just Hallertau hops. If I have to get an additional variety, I will, but prefer...

Used 1/2 cup of light dme and 2 cups of water as per the instructions I found here in one of the stickies. Trouble is, I was sober at the time, and forgot to top it off...

    How much will additions in secondary affect my gravity?

    First, I'm sorry if this one has been asked a lot. My search didn't get me the answers I was looking for. I am making both a cherry stout, and a peanut butter stout. Brewed and fermented a 5 gallon base stout (extract kit) in the primary. This was then split in half as best I could into...

    How would you sanitize Bell Plantation PB2 powder

    Ok, I have my base stout for a peanut butter stout I'm brewing in the primary for a week and a half now. Time to start thinking about Racking to the secondary. At this stage, I plan to add a whole bunch of Bell Plantation PB2 powder. My question is, how would you sanitize this powder? I...
