Yes, I think the best thing to do is to try it once first and taste the result. Especially since I have a portion of Carafa III Special in there. Thanks so much guys for your input!

Hello, I will brew my first stout (oatmeal stout) this week and I plan to introduce the roasted grains (8% of the malt bill, chocolate malt and roasted barley, with a bit of carafe II and carafe III special) late in the mash (last 20 mins of a 60 mins mash) to make sure I produce a smooth...

number40fan: I'm thinking a 7bbl brewhouse so about 800 litters of beer. Considering how it takes care to carefully mix in the bottling sugar evenly at a home brewers volume I'm doubtful this can be done with much larger volume. Flars: are you saying something like inline priming where the...

Hello, I’m currently working on a project where a manual gravity fed bottle filler would be used. The beers would be bottle conditioned. Never having worked with such a setup I’m unclear as to how the bottling sugar is introduced - mixed in with the beer - and at what stage in the transfer...

Hello guys, Like others I was wondering if this is a good purchase. Believe me it is. But I couldn't find the list of included recipes. Here is the list of clone recipes in the book. I will add in the brewery names later on as well as links to ratebeer. Cheers

Following on this: I steeped grains a second time. This resulted in a harsh bitterness.

Great prizes from generous vendors! Please add me in!

Hi all, Do these types of bottles have a names? Anyone knows where they could be ordered from (for a microbrewery)? THX!

I recently attempted Jamil's Chocolate Hazelnut Porter, which is currently starting it's secondary fermentation. I'm looking at it and the color is medium brown. My steeping bag was very tighly packed as you can see in this photo. Could it the lightness in color be the result of an...

Thanks Nick, that makes sense.

Hi all, Next week-end I'll do a batch of Jamil's Chocolate Hazelnut Porter. But I intend to split the batch at bottling time (half with the addition of hazelnut extract and the other with espresso coffee to do a Chocolate Espresso Porter). Is there a ratio Espresso/Beer you guys would...
