    Festbier BierMuncher's OktoberFAST Ale (AG)

    I would do .5 lb of the Melaniodin along with the Aromatic. Should give you that big Malty, Decocted flavor

    Festbier BierMuncher's OktoberFAST Ale (AG)

    IMO...I would scale them back. But that's just me and I am not a HopHead. You might want to take the remaining balance of the hops and toss them in at Flame-out around 180 degrees and let them steep for 15 minutes before chilling. It should give a nice noble hop aroma with almost no bitterness...

    Festbier BierMuncher's OktoberFAST Ale (AG)

    I've made them both. I give the nod to BierMuncher. I wasn't a big fan of the Kolsch yeast in Ed's though his Plisner Kolsch is great. Octoberfast gives a Big Malty taste when served around 50 degrees. I've got 10 Gallons in the primary with WLP830 lager yeast. Since its target is mid December...

    Cream Ale Cream of Three Crops (Cream Ale)

    Yes..Begin the Sparge after 90 minutes. My process is to Drain the mash till it about an inch above the grain bed lay in a piece of aluminium foil over the bed and poke some holes in it. I heat my water to 170-180 and use about a half gallon at a time to sparge with the valve open enough to get...

    Cream Ale Cream of Three Crops (Cream Ale)

    I have brewed this several times with several variations. The 2# of corn is by far my personal favorite. I have found that in about 4 weeks after kegging the corn flavor is all but gone. I have also used 1# of table sugar in place of 1# of the corn and didnt notice any of the corn flavor after...

    Tennessee Group Grain Buy Round 1 2012

    You got a HD pickup? 40 some sacks will be close to a ton. If I remember correctly Bobby had a Full-size pickup and it only held between 25-30 sacks loaded down On a separate note... I know there is only 50 splits on this buy, but Dave and I worked about 4 hours or more cutting out splits...
