I am having some problems and need help. I brewed the following recipe http://quantumfish.com/2010/04/22/great-lakes-edmund-fitzgerald-porter-clone/ I have to admit I had a little to much of my homebrew while making it. I could have sworn that the OG was 1.06 but after two weeks in the...

You should go back and act like nothing happened. Come in with a list of a bunch of things you need to make a couple of very big batches of beer. Try to take up as much of his time as possible. Then when it comes time to check out. Tell him you changed your mind and walk out.

I am also interested in this one if anyone has made it I would like to know how it came out

Hi - I just bought a keg system and love it but now I have a question. I want to bring some beer to my friends in a bottle. I recently brought some beer to a party by filling up a growler. I used a tube to fill it from the bottom up but it still seemed flat. Does anyone have any...

I am looking for a recipe for Great Lakes Edmund Fitzgerald Porter. I seen that a recipe was in the Dec 2009 "Brew Your Own Magazine" but I do not have access to it. Does anyone have a copy? I am new to brewing. I am hoping it is an extract recipe.

I just want to make sure I understand. If I am not cold crashing. I could ferment in primary for 2.5 - 3 weeks and go right to keg?
