BIAB so no stuck mash concerns

Just wondering if there is a downside to milling flaked oats along with the rest of my grain? I did this initially when I started brewing via all-grain until I read something that said not to, so I stopped. But, now I cannot remember the "why" what goes along with that. Anyone know the pros...

I am not trying to clone the Hemporer beer, but I am interested in how to go about adding hemp flavor. I like the concept of this and I am always interested in playing with a new ingredient. On New Belgium's website, they include this comment in the description of the Hemporer beer...

Sorry,yes I meant Carbonating in cans. Not sure where my head is today.

When I brew IPAs I carbonate in kegs and when I brew stouts I carbonate in bottles. I now have an All American Can Seamer. Any reason to avoid fermenting (s/b carbonating) in cans?

I recently acquired a hand-cranked 225 series All-American Seamer for 12oz or 16oz aluminum cans. I have been filling the cans from a keg via a beer gun (well, Last Straw). Thus far I have found this to be a messy process with too much foam and too much wasted beer -- hoping that I get better...

Has anyone tried using Irish Stout Malt in a Saison? My LHBS just started carrying it. The backstory here is that a while ago I went to make an all-grain Saison with 65% Pilsner, 15% Rye, 8% Caramel Wheat, and 8% Flaked Wheat and 2% Clear Candi Sugar. I accidentally bought Pale Malt instead...

Junga hops are available again at Farmhouse Brewing Supply. http://www.farmhousebrewingsupply.com/junga-po-4-oz-2016/

Trying to track down a source for Junga hops. Bought through Farmhouse Brewing Supply in the past, but I no longer seem them listed. Looking for at least a pound of pellets at this point. Does anyone know of a site that has these available? Thank you.

I recently opened a bottle of batch #5 Jester King El Cedro and I was shocked at how much grapefruit and citrus flavor there was. I got a couple of bottles of this in the fall of 2014 and we opened one bottle immediately. The flavor of that first bottle was fantastic, but not really...

I would like to buy this from you. I will DM you tomorrow morning. Should be able to pick it up over the weekend.

Make sure that you do not bulk age it for too long if you want it for the holidays. Probably need at least a couple of months in the bottles for the carbonation to come up.

This still available?

I am brewing a Pale Ale and I want to add a couple ounces of hops (in this case, Huell/Hull Melon) in the last 15 minutes. I was initially going to add an ounce at 15 minutes and another ounce at 5 minutes. Just wondering if it would increase the richness of the hops flavor if I added hops in...

Using sugar because I have four kegs and I do not the ability to keep them cold right now and I am only setup to pressurize one keg at a time. I need them in about a month and I have very little free time in the next few weeks. Using priming sugar on these so I can just set up and get back to...
