    American IPA Bell's Two Hearted Ale Clone (close as they come)

    This is my first Centennial brew so not sure what to expect. It almost seems to have a diacetyl taste/feel. I'l just let it hang out in fermenter a little longer.

    American IPA Bell's Two Hearted Ale Clone (close as they come)

    Took a hydro tonight and little taste. Down to 1.014 and can't say I care for the taste at this point, hopefully it will improve over the next few weeks In the time I'll brew up some more mosaic :)

    American IPA Bell's Two Hearted Ale Clone (close as they come)

    Just finished up a great brew day with no drama. I do BIAB and average 78% eff. This is the first time brewing this recipe, although this is the exact recipe I use for many IPA's. Works really well for Mosaic and M+osaic/Simcoe. Qs: how long do you guys usually age this one?

    Pilsner Qs from a new-ish brewer

    I'll be brewing the Pils again, I will try all SAAZ per recipe. I really enjoyed the Grainy/Malty flavor. Really well balanced. Not much of a hop head. If the SAAZ is pretty mellow that would be great. I want to keep close to the same flavor profile. It was a 4.5 Gallon batch- used 11g Magnum...

    International Dark Lager Black Barley Coffee Lager

    Just an update: I bottled 2 weeks ago and cracked the first one last night. It's a good beer, reall full flavor but finishes pretty light. Next go around I may try the Coffee malt instead of CarafaI. But overall a really easy drinking beer.

    Irish Red Hops Q's

    I have a recipe for an Irish Red that calls for the following Hops: .75oz-Willamette @ 60 .75oz-Goldings @ 30 I only have .5oz of each. I do have a couple oz. of Fuggles I can use. The Question is; Can I make up the .25 shortage with fuggles? or however much to hit the IBU's

    International Dark Lager Black Barley Coffee Lager

    Just finished up with diacetyl rest @ ~66F, gravity down to 1.011. Going to rack tomorrow and drop it to 34F for 6 weeks or so. Tastes pretty good so far, good coffee/chocolate aroma, very mild on taste. This seems like it will be a very smooth beer.

    International Dark Lager Black Barley Coffee Lager

    Brewed this up today as my first Lager. My Brew day went well, hit all my numbers. I did 2.5 Gal. and set the grain bill to get me to 1.055. I did a straight sub of Roasted Barley with Carafa I. Wort tasted good, pretty mild. Fermenting @ 51 degrees. I'll let you know how it progresses. Pitched S23

    International Dark Lager Black Barley Coffee Lager

    Well I couldn't find Roasted Barley 300L. The shop was out of roasted Barley 500+L. I do have a little Chocolate malt and some Carafa I(320L) that I can mix. What do you all think of that for a sub?

    International Dark Lager Black Barley Coffee Lager

    I currently use a different method for converting recipes to BIAB. Is the BeerSmith pretty accurate fro BIAB?

    International Dark Lager Black Barley Coffee Lager

    Looking to brew this up BIAB in the next 2 weeks any more info on this? Hoping for something that tastes close to INDIO Mexican. Or at least close that I can tweak to get it right.
