10 gallons of this in the fermenters. Gonna add blueberry to 5 gallons of it, and the other I will dry hop with some citra. Should be tasty!
I think Revvy has a post early on this thread where he did this to great results.Heck, anyone brewed this as a lager?
This should get you a very similar beer:
Batch Size: 5.50 gal
Boil Size: 6.57 gal
Estimated OG: 1.044 SG
Estimated Color: 3.2 SRM
Estimated IBU: 16.8 IBU
Brewhouse Efficiency: 70.0 %
Boil Time: 60 Minutes
Ingredients:
------------
Amount Item Type % or IBU
5.00 lb Extra Light Dry Extract (3.0 SRM) Dry Extract 83.3 %
1.00 lb Cara-Pils/Dextrine (2.0 SRM) Grain 16.7 %
0.25 oz Centennial [9.50%] (45 min) Hops 7.8 IBU
0.25 oz Centennial [9.50%] (20 min) Hops 5.1 IBU
0.25 oz Cascade [7.80%] (10 min) Hops 2.5 IBU
0.25 oz Cascade [7.80%] (5 min) Hops 1.4 IBU
1 Pkgs Nottingham (Danstar #-) Yeast-Ale
What water/grain ratio would you recommend for the mash? 1.5 quarts/pound?
This may have been asked at some point, but with 486 pages it's hard to be sure. I bought the ingredients for this last night, and inadvertently bought Briess Pale Ale malt instead of the plain 2-row. Will that be a problem? Likely to change the taste?
Thanks in advance!
Brewed this a few weeks ago, tapped the keg last friday, was gone by sunday! everyone loved it! We plan on brewing it again next weekend, although this time we would like to add a bit of orange to it! How should we go about doing this?
You could... but I wouldn't advise it. I'd rather get any orange flavour from the actual fruit, not fake flavour from chemicals.
I would suggest using orange zest, and maybe a dry-hop with Mandarina Bavaria hops, to get some orange into this beer.
This sounds like a better idea. Id prefer to have natural flavors. Would i add orange zest in the boil? Primary? Secondary?
I finally used the Nottingham yeast with this brew. Before I've been using 1056 or Kolsch. The Kolsch doesn't go well with it imo. The 1056 is awesome but the gravity would always go to 1.007. We'll see how the notty is different.
I just sprinkled it directly into the bucket and in 12 hours it was going nuts.
Notty took mine down to 1.008, so...
Hey all, I thought I would share the video I shot of me brewing this ale. Cheers!

Always fun to watch a video! Thanks for doing it. My feedback, not that you asked for it, is: 1. Dump the stabilizer and use a legit water salt chemistry calculator. 2. Cover up that fermenter sooner - brewing outside you are just begging for airborne contaminants. I am anal about sanitization, so maybe I am over the top, but something to think about.
2 friends and I tapped this 5gallom yesterday.
It's almost all gone.
They want me to brew it more often... Not sure, it finishes too quickly.
