Ok, sounds good.
Tap water STARTING to get warm? Heck, with these cool mornings, I would think it would still be cold. Had a temp reading of 23 on my sensor at 3' outside the back door, this morning. But I am in a "frost pocket".

Did the Vienna SMASH this afternoon. Hopped it a little less to suite my tastes. Followed the same schedule except 1 oz. instead of 2.5 oz. at the 20 minute mark. Beer Pal, (iPhone app) showed an IBU of 94 with original hop schedule.
Ended up with 4.5 gallons after the boil, which is OK, since I am fermenting in a Corny keg.
That's impossible. 4 oz of 8% AA hops can't equal 94 IBUs. With the recipe you brewed I'm showing 39.6 IBUs which is right at the bottom of the guidelines as far as bitterness goes.
I've had all of them as I volunteer at the brewery from time to time.I'm kind of busy myself, so maybe next weekend.
Hey anyone had any of those Swamp Head Brewery ales? I saw some of their empty torpedo kegs at Gator Beverage today. Their 10-10-10 looks like something Chris would enjoy. (110 IBU's!!)
So I posted this in the Recipes section without too much success, but I wanted to ask you guys:
What would a Strong Scotch Ale brewed with Vienna as the base malt taste like? I like my scotch ales sweet and clean, and I figured Vienna would give me this in spades.
Something like this? (4gal):
9.50lb Vienna
0.50lb British Crystal (55L)
0.25lb Aromatic Malt
0.25lb Special B
1.00oz Roasted Barley
1.25oz EKG @ 60 for about 20 IBU
1.072 OG fermented down to about 1.020
Wyeast 1728 Scottish Ale Yeast
so i finally found some bigfoot 2010 only im in KY and cant bring it home. life can be so cruel at times. they have this awesome store up here called the liquor barn. it puts any liquor store to shame. they have the best selection of beer ive ever seen. i wish i could bring some home. damn airplane 3 oz liquid rule. looks like im going to have to drink what i can while im here.
got a balloon?
Now to figure out what to do with the four kegs I have coming in next week, considering I don't have a fridge nor a CO2 tank for them...
I'll have to look that one up and see how it is made.
Hey Chris, thanks for reminding me about this thread. Just checking in.
PS Even yanking with the carboy carrier, damn thing didn't budge from the Styrofoam container it came in. Had to cut it off. So much for my insulation idea.
