coffee

I'm currently designing my first recipe for next weekend and I'd like some feedback as I'm sure I should probably make some tweaks. I'm specifically looking for feedback on the grainbill, and the relative amounts of each grain. For instance, I'd like to include more chocolate malt but I was told...

Hello, I'm a new member on the forum, but I've been brewing for about a year, now - if you don't count my apple wine adventures as an adolescent - and just got my first three carboys a few days ago. No more buckets! :ban: I started my most-recent batch of something reminiscent of ginger-beer...

It's been long overdue to have another mystery bean coffee swap! Who's in for another round? The info below is copied and pasted from the last round earlier this year. I'm tagging some players from the last exchange along with others. If I forgot anyone I do apologize, it's nothing personal...

Hey guys, I brewed a White Stout last week and the recipe calls for cacao nibs and whole coffee beans addition after fermentation. I'm trying to skip the secondary part and I'm wondering how I can achieve this. Option #1 Adding nibs and coffee beans directly into primary after fermentation...

Hello all, I have 5 gallons of a Brown that is in the primary and ready to switch to secondary. However, I plan to add some hazelnut coffee to it. The catch is, it is already ground and it is only 4oz of ground coffee. How do you recommend I add this to secondary without risking...

I won't go into the long back-story...I'll just say this is a beer that's rarely available via "whim rotation" and my wife and I absolutely love it, so I want to try and brew a very similar beer and hopefully get a clone recipe eventually. This is the info from their website that I used to...

So, this has been a project of mine for some time - I spent some time attempting to "reverse-engineer" Rogue's proprietary hop varieties they mention in their recipe for Cold Brew IPA...

I read up a bit on the many forms of brewing with coffee e.g. stouts, porters, cream ales, even IPAs. But I'd like to ask what techniques, ingredients, etc. you all would think is best if I'm trying to capture the most natural coffee flavors. I can think of brewing something using very lightly...

I'm a coffee addict, and I bet a lot of other members here are also. I LOVE a rich cup of coffee. I was just thinking how much similar the art of coffee and beer are. Buying raw ingredients, roasting, milling, sparging, tasting... pretty close to what we are doing with our beer obsession...

I have an old 4 gallon, aluminum, percolater. Could it be used to make an all-grain beer? I have only seen one article with the concern or the temps being too high. The basket seems to be large enough for almost 3 quarts of grain.:confused:
