I did forget to mention that putting the pumpkin in the nylon bag was the key. Granted it was still messy just doing that. Sent from my iPhone using HB Talk

Finishing up first week in the primary. The brew went great and smelled awesome. Bubbled away like crazy for several days. Now waiting to move to secondary. Did miss my OG by a few points but that was due to my mash dropping a little low near the end. Will report back once it's in the keg. Sent...

I too batch sparge so we are good there, and I also brew in my driveway beside my house with a 15 gallon kettle - will be brewing Monday and I'm looking foward to this brew. Thanks again for the help. btw - I'm planning on kegging, but I doubth that will make a difference.

Also, one more thing - when did you add the pumpkin? I'm planning on adding it at the boil in a nylon bag, as you did.

Where did your IBU's com in with that hop schedule - it looks pretty high. and I'm assuming 90 min boil, correct?

Thanks

Sorry to hijack this thread but how did you get your water quality report? I found one online for my area but it really isn't helpful.

Trebor - how much of the corriander and what grain bill do you suggest - I'm planning on the following: 2 Row - 10lbs Munich (Light) - 2lbs Crystal 40L - .5 lbs
