    Second Batch -- Tank 7 Clone Kit

    This reminds me of my tank 7 clone (homage). I bottled too early to make it into a competition and would up with astringency/bitter apple off flavor, but I had already sent bottles off... I was disappointed but completely understood the judges' comments when I got my scoresheet back. The...

    So who's brewing this weekend?

    Going to brew my first lager today: a BoPils recipe. Using 2 packs of dry 34/70. Have to admit I'm a bit apprehensive about how it will turn out.

    Should I double or triple pitch a 1.085 OG batch?

    For future batches above 1.055 OG I would highly recommend using a yeast starter calculator. I will frequently use brewers friend or mr. Malty. If you don't know how to make a yeast starter it's time to learn! Proper yeast pitching and wort oxygenation will drastically improve your beer!

    Belgian golden strong sugar additions

    I've made CSI's recipe and it came out great ( got a 1st place in a regional comp too). I added the dextrose at the end of the boil, all 34 oz of it. But I'm sure it would come out great if you add it during primary. Wouldn't add to a secondary. Also read the BLAM recipe, good hints there.

    Belgian Dark Strong Ale Westvleteren 12 Clone - Multiple Award Winner

    I brewed mine the middle of May and bottled the beginning of July. I had one last nice and it's carbonated but perhaps another couple weeks will fully carbonate it. Delicious! In a couple weeks the remaining stash will go to a friends wine cellar to age until the new year. Thank God for...

    Now THAT is awesome! I'm from northern New York and I can remember throwing back a couple Schaefers! (I believe it was in the '70s)

    Schaefer clone

    Not sure where to start but I do know "Schaefer is the one beer to clone when you're cloning more than one!"

    Anybody figure out a reliable way to calculate your IBUs and desired uses and times in beersmith yet? Any chance this will become an update?

    Amarillo / Mosaic and Citra combinations?

    Don't know what you anticipate your OG to be but if it were me I'd get the OG up to 1.060 - 1.065 and get Amarillo IBUs up to around 35, then split the citra and mosaic up to do equal amounts in whirlpool hops and dry hops.

    Harbor freight brew cart- anyone using?

    I bought a heavy duty hydraulic lift cart from HF - works well with my eBIAB system and I love the smooth up and down for transfers

    New England IPA hater

    "Salad days" is a Shakespearean idiomatic expression to refer to a youthful time, accompanied by the inexperience, enthusiasm, idealism, innocence, or indiscretion that one associates with a young person.
