On 4.13, I added a 2 L starter of 3711 at high krausen and let that take effect until 5.6, where the FG was 1.018 (even though there was still yeast activity, but since the numbers and the sample were deemed good, I put an end to all that waiting business). After nearly 2 months in the keezer...

In my understanding, forced fermentations are good for unfermented wort, and my beer is depleted of oxygen, low on nutrients (I even added some nutrients with the champagne yeast, and that resulted in nothing), and fairly high in alcohol, so that may not be as applicable in this case. Thanks for...

It is based off the brewing classic styles recipe, and the recipe did have 2.125 # sugar (1# demerara and 1.125# corn) to reach target gravity, which is a little more than Jamil's, but I am thinking that the simple sugars are not the ones preventing the FG from progressing further, as they...

In short, my belgian strong finished too high @ 1.037 (SG: 1.105) and tastes unpleasantly sweet. The recipe is based off Jamil's brew like a homebrewer, and mash temp was 151F. Yeast was Wyeast trappist high gravity (180 mL slurry). Fermentation temps were controlled, starting at 68F and rising...

I think that can be accommodated. :)

rattwo, yeah, if you are going to pick up the grain directly, I would greatly appreciate you hauling my bag to the Cuyahoga Falls area. Thanks! I'll PM you my email and we can set up a pick up time after you get it your way. Thanks to everyone for making this happen!

What'll they think of next? -- Pretty neat

Welcome from Woo-town!

Sounds good to me too. Bugman, will you then pm your email address to those who need to pay via paypal (me being one of them)? I am also fine with contributing to gas whenever that is figured out.

Looks good to me.

Ah, looks like you beat me to the chase logdrum. No worries~

I'd be interested in splitting a bag of vienna. What are the details? Would it be split by them or us?

PM and post done. Yeah rattwo, I would appreciate if you'd haul my bag. Let me know if you also want gas cash.

PM sent for CM-2ROW. Thanks!

I'd like to hop on board with a bag of Canadian 2-row. rattwo, if you're willing to relay my bag from Hermit I can pick it up from you in Akron. I'm from Wooster so that would shave about an hour off my drive. I guess I could also take a bag or two back if someone wants the relay extended this...
