This one was way too sweet, if i made it again i would cut the lactose in half.

Drink it early and cloudy :)

Here is my simple two teir put together using metal from an old truck rack. No fancy gadgets here but it does the trick. Hoping to add a pump soon though.

I'm wanting to make a 10 gallon batch of this but my mash tun is not large enough for all the grain and strike water. Anyone successfully modified this recipe to substitute some grain for extract?

Yep, planning on keggles. Here is another photo a little further along. Thanks for the info!

I am working on my home brew stand and picked up a couple 10" banjo burners. I am getting ready to mount them and I am wondering what height I should mount them at. Can anyone tell me what the ideal height is from the bottom of the kettle to the top of the burner?

You're not married are you??? Enjoy the space while you can :)

May want to find another friend.

Bottles in the oven.....??? Have you tried Star San yet? Moving hot bottles in and out of the oven sounds like a pain in the arsss.
