Cooling the wort from my new stout. Looking for 2.5 gallon @ ~1.80. Pitching 2 packs of S 04. NB hops @ 60 min and EKG @ 30. Hoping it will be tasty.I have a teen who now associates brewery smells with a specific video game
1.800? Or 1.080?Cooling the wort from my new stout. Looking for 2.5 gallon @ ~1.80. Pitching 2 packs of S 04. NB hops @ 60 min and EKG @ 30. Hoping it will be tasty.

Lol. My bad 1.085 was the final OG into the fermenter.Skip the refractometer, skip the hydrometer. The question is whether a spoon stands on its own.
Nominal 5 gallon - I start with 8, usually get about 6 into the fermenter, lose about .75 to trub. At least 24 22 oz bottles and several 12's or a couple 16s.Sounds great. What is the batch size?
Good call. EVERYONE will find a reason to drink after this upcoming election...It's a special occasion beer to crack open while watching the mid-term election results in November. Good times!
For what it’s worth I use morebeer for about 99% of my equipment purchases. They have been nothing but a joy to do business with. One negative thing I will say about them is that if I ever see a shipment coming from their PA warehouse I’ll avoid hitting order, long time to ship out and once it got here it looked like the box inside of the big box went through Ukraine in a Russian tank. But all that aside they have been amazing to deal with and make everything right.I tried brewing last weekend... got burned by a defective grain bag (had about a 4mm gap in it). As an extract brewer, I'm not sure what to go with for a supplier. NB seems to struggle with fulfilling orders. I feel they need to do a better job of communicating this to prospective brewers... it appears you can no longer call them, there's no way to use their "chat" since they're offline, and email appears to be the only way to go.
I'm at the mercy of trying Amazon with Brewer's Best kits (got burned on the latest kit), and MoreBeer appears to be the best solution in my future as of this point.
MoreBeer has been pretty good for me, too. There’s also RiteBrew, which is sometimes rather cheaper, and my experience with them has been good, too.For what it’s worth I use morebeer for about 99% of my equipment purchases.
