Thank you BierMuncher.. you've made a lot of us pretty happy with your recipes!
So, you might call it a quality complex light beer?
Quick question. Has the Centennial Blonde recipe change from the original back in 2007? Basically, what Biermuncher's later version of this recipe or is it the same as when it started.
Sorry, but didn't feel like going through 154 pages of history to see if it had changed. Thanks.
Anyone ever dry hop or add hops at flame out?
m0808 said:i just brewed this as my first all grain. (biab) my pre boil reading was 1.040 and my post boil reading was 1.048 . Just wondering if that seems right. I did the recipe with no changes. My wort is bubbling only after 5 hours and its alot clearer then it was when i pitched. But there is like 3 inches of turb/crap in the bottom of my carboy. just wondering if that is normal. I have only ever made brewhouse beer kits.
Nope - no changes. I have played around with different yeasts though. Just kegged a version fermented with Bell's house yeast. I'll report back in a couple of weeks.
It was finally ripe after 2 weeks in the keg. Fantastic beer. The only change I made was that I brewed with W1056. Perfect! Will brew this again.
I went back and tracked each of your posts in this thread since you brewed this and I think you went primary for 2 weeks and keg condition for 2 weeks? I started drinking mine at 4 weeks (actually killed it at a party when it was 4 weeks old). 3 in primary, 1 in keg (burst-carbed). I think it was malty-sweet and a tad over-bittered due to missing my gravity. Wondering if it would have mellowed with more time or not...

Taste is clean and crisp, but a tad yeasty considering the short ferment, but I can tell this will be a very nice quencher for the warm weather after it carbs and goes in my fridge. I can only imagine how easy this will go down when ice cold after mowing the lawn... Thanks for the recipe.
