Hey all, We just got thru having a pretty great party, and I brought about 3 dozen oysters that now I have all the shells for. My question is can I now make an Oyster Stout using only those shells or do I need the WHOLE oyster really in order to get the true flavor one looks for in an Oyster...

So I brewed this batch 5 weeks ago with DennyConn's Fav 50, and I STILL hear the airlock going! Just took a reading and taste (kind of dry but that's prob because I only hit 1.050 instead of the 1.060 mark!), but I am wondering if it is normal for this yeast to STILL be chugging along? Will I...

All right cool thanks. Looking forward to it. Had to use American Ale Yeast (and they were churning like mad this morning) instead of Denny's Fav 50 because that's working on my "Deception Cream Stout" right now. Will use your stuff next time though no doubt....hopefully at proper OG. Thanks...

Ok so the OG wasn't 1.050 but 1.060. Should I be worried this will affect the flavoring of this batch? LME needed anyone think?

Hey I just brewed this and took the OG before adding the final flame out hops. The reading is 1.050 which is waaaaaay off! Am worried I used too much H2O (16.26 liters mash at 151 and 8 gallon sparge at 185). Can anybody help me figure this out? Do I need to add LME to make this recipe work?

Hey all, I just brewed this Deception recipe last night and got an OG of only 1.050. Should I be concerned or do something because I didn't come close to the 1.060?
