Hey all. I wanna share a recipe i did. Its a Coopers Diablo IPA with added Citra in boil and dryhop. I start with boiling 20g Citra in 2l water for 20min.I leave the hops in the mix. I add the Diablo extract and stir it up really good. I then added 400 dextrose for added ABV. After that i fill...

Hi folks, I've been brewing for half a decade now (all extract or partial mash), and made the transition to kegs about 2 years ago. Since then, I've made some good hefes, some good oktoberfests, and a cream ale that wasn't half bad. However, I've made half a dozen kits from MoreBeer, and...

Back in October (2019) I pulled off a little brewing miracle. And one to be repeated, but preferably without the extra pressure of time. Yeah, yeah. A few months before, I had signed up (again) to serve homebrew beer at a fundraising event: The 10th annual Homebrew Extravaganza at Checkerspot...

Hi, I'm working on a recipe for a dank piney IPA with some floral/fruity in the background, and I have come up with something like this. I've never used Chinook before, and I have only recently started playing around with my own recipes so I would appreciate any input about this recipe and hop...

I want to take a stab at a fruity, hazy IPA with medium bitterness and around 6% ABV. I wrote up this recipe based on ingredients I have in stock: 8# Pale 2# Wheat 1# Munich Light 1# Oats --------------- 12# total grain bill 60 minutes infusion mash at 152F 3/4oz Magnum @ 60 1oz Cascade @ 10...

I started with 6.5g of distilled water, and added calcium chloride and calcium sulphate to adjust the water profile. I added 1 3/4tsp Gypsum and 1tsp of calcium chloride prior to the boil. I was hoping for a strong hop forward profile with a bit of sweetness (NEIPAish) but now as I wait for...

Hello, my name is Matt and I live in Minneapolis. I've been a lurker for a while and have used this forum for a ton of research, so I figured I should probably join the conversations at some point. I'm pretty new to homebrewing. I have my third-ever batch glugging away in the fermenter as I...

I know, I know - you can't rush good beer. Unless you over commit for a Halloween party.... I brewed a DIPA using K-97 last night for it to be ready to serve in 10 days. Yikes right? Usually for these NEIPA / DIPAs I don't sweat that time frame in a pinch (obviously more time is better). I can...

Hi all, been experimenting with a bunch of water profiles lately, I wanted to share some of my own and see what people have been using lately, think of these and which is your "go to" water profile for an american IPA and compare. Profile1: CA 99 Mg 18.20 Na 8 SO4 242.7 Cl 52.50 HCO3 16...

Hello all, I'll be bottling my first batch ever this coming Sunday after a two week fermentation process. The brewing and fermintation process seemed straight-forward enough with the instructions in my kit but the bottling day instructions are a little less detailed, so it left me wondering...

So you may have heard of Dog Fish Heads beer Slightly Mighty --- its a low carb IPA sweetened with Monk Fruit. I am currently doing keto and its intrigued me and I wondered if anyone else has tried or is going to try using Monk Fruit in their beers. My thoughts are to ferment the beer as dry as...

Hello, I want to start brewing for the first time, and I have obviously lots of doubts. First, I don't know very much about calculations, units, values... Do you guys know any orientative tutorial for these complicated matters? such as OG, FG, ABV, IBUs... At the moment all I know I learned it...

So I've got this IPA recipe I want to try and I want to add blueberries for color and flavor. So my question is when should I add them? While boiling in hop bag? Dip them in vodka and when racking beer to secondary? Or just both? Also I'd like to know what's the procedure for vodka sanitizing...

Ok so im just getting starting with basic home brewing. I bought a Mangroves Jacks craft beer kit. First brew was a golden larger and turned out terrible. Insanely fizzy where it would just turn completely to foam and taste metallic?? I figured i had bottled it too early so it was still...

I'm looking for some input on a recipe I am crafting for my next brew day. I have read about a lot about different hop combinations for NEIPAs, which has led me to go with a Citra, El Dorado, and Mosaic. I have used these hops in the past, just not this combination. My question is what you do...

I have a bells two hearted recipe kit from northern brewing. I am changing up the hop schedule and adding more hops. Somebody recommended adding 1 lb of sugar to the recipe to dry the beer out. Any recommendations if I should add sugar or not to this recipe. ???? Steeping grains -...

Hi all, I'm looking to try my hand at doing a Brut IPA and I'm looking for some guidelines. BeerSmith 3 doesn't include this style as an option. So, I'm using Specialty IPA as the style. Here's what I have as a recipe so far: Brut IPA (5.5 gallon batch) --------------------------- Est SG...

I've been researching, purchasing, and building my first homebrew setup since October 18. I'm an American currently living in South Korea. Finally getting closer to my first brew day. Still need another Hellfire burner and tower of power gas controller but I went ahead and tested my plumbing out...

Hi. I'm new to brewing ... new to IPAs. So far, I've supposedly successfully brewed 2 stouts. I say "supposedly" because all my friends like my beer. I don't trust them because I think they just like the free beer concept. Lol. But I did take my beer to a local craft brewery and I got a...
