Well your recipe is most likely for a 5 gallon batch. I put it into beer tools and it came out as 1.054. Then I changed it to a Mr. Beer size of 2.2 gallons and it came out as 1.094. You made your beer wayyy to strong. The alcohol content will be 20% and most yeasts can't survive that high...

What is a good yeast to use with a strong stout?

Quite possibly. I just got engaged and have yet to let it fully sink in.

Basic brewing radio did a pumpkin beer experiment last november. http://media.libsyn.com/media/basicbrewing/bbr11-26-09pumpkinexp.mp3 It's 40 minutes long.

That was my fault. I entered the hops in correctly now.

What is considered a high efficiency? What is the highest you've obtained, and how if you did something great?

I was looking at old photos from the depression and I saw this sign in Chicago in 1943. What is the deal with the 33 to 1?

I brewed my beer on June 30th. Due to real life problems I did not get a chance to rack it into my secondary. Could I move it over now or is it too late?

Well someone has to!

If there is anything you guys think I should add please let me know. I'll be brewing this after I get out of work. Would lemon zest go well with the coriander?

This is my first non-mr beer recipe. I'm just making it up as I go. I figure I'll just add the hops the last 15 minutes of a 60 minute boil. I don't know where the dextrine and crystal light should come in. First 30 minute maybe?
