I would use this as my guide. He interviews Vinnie and homebrews something like blind pig. Looks like a great beer over all. Recipe formation come near the end of part 1.
@Dgallo sounds so great - that’s the kinda beer that reminds me even with two kids I’ll never want to quit home brewing - a super easy fresh delicious ipa still way cheaper than commercial with DME!
What do you do for a bittering IBUs and hot side hopping rates for a beer like that? I don’t do...
Latest west coast. This has some new tweaks. Tried 4% raw wheat, got the idea from pure project in San Diego, they use it in all their hoppy beers for head and some softness. The foam on this is excellent. But I also do a mash rest at 160 that I think helps. FG 1.006, I love it. Maybe I like...
Finally got to brewing a hazy, it’s been tough to brew lately with a move and a new baby. But she’s cute and sweeter than her brother, ha!
Just did a Brujos style, trying to hit some extremes.
1.074 OG targeting 1.020-1.022 FG.
2-row 35% the rest wheat and oats, 5% maltodextrin. Chloride 300...
@bailey mountain brewer when you talk “oz per gallon” are you referring to the volume or wort at the point in the process OR just the intended finish volume (15 gals for you, 5 gals for many of us).
I ask cuz it’s a pretty big difference for these hop heavy beers, for me the boil/WP is 8...
I’ve never been totally convinced about the benefits of staged dry hopping. It seems to me that if you agitate/rumble/recirc/shake your keg with one big dry hop you get the benefits that would have been had for staged dry hopping after fermentation but more so. And agree with Bailey I’d only...
That’s great man! My next hazy is going to be along these lines can you rec some more details? It’s really not that huge of a hop load! Did this yield 5 gallons finished in the keg? I’ve had beers finish at 1018 and 1020 before that I loved, so you think this is all the malto accomplished? Or...
I generally prefer using dry yeast, so that’s my bias and I’ve made plenty of great beer over the last few years since I’ve mostly quit dealing with liquid.
I’ve had no trouble with CS hazy and liked the results more than verdant ipa, well maybe equivocal results but I like that it didn’t have...
Kelsey from NPBC popularized dip hopping with incognito. Transfer 5% or so of your hot wort into fermenter(60-80C), add incognito so it dissolves well in the fermenter instead of sticking to the side of your kettle.
I think this thread is pretty brilliant so I wanted to refresh it and make my contribution.
Here is my ferment in a 10 gallon corny keg. I’ve got almost 9 gallons of 1.060 in it and I’m using the fermentation CO2 to dry purge 7 gallons of serving kegs. I’ve got a spunding valve at the end of...
