    Another hop project - Lake County Florida

    I bought them on eBay. The centennial were from beer-wineus and the cascade appeared to be from an individual. The centennials where huge but the cascades were tiny.

    Growing Hops in Central Florida

    Hello all! Great thread. First time hop grower here. I basically purchased 30 gallon pots since I have everything known to man in my yard (nematodes, mole crickets, moles, etc... you name it). I don't trust planting in the ground but have seen others successfully do it. For s&g's I did...

    My Hops Garden Project

    How much bio-bloom does one add? The instructions from biobizz say add it for 10 weeks once per week during the flowering phase: (http://www.biobizz.com/uploads/bestanden/3aef58a5-f168-4c67-90e5-f795080075c4). Gridlocked: it looks like you added it 3 times total but how much? 1ml/L, 2ml/L ...

    So for harvesting time, do you have to cut down the bines or can you just pick the hops off and let everything continue to grow?

    Fruit Beer Raspberry Belgian Ale

    When I first did this (based on the original recipe) I used raspberry extract at kegging time. Oh boy was that a mistake.....WAY too much raspberry taste!!! Next attempt will be with real raspberries either at the end of the boil or in secondary. Has anyone else tried variations on this recipe?

    Adding honey

    Yeah you were right, I just poured it right in there. No issues what so ever. Like others have said, do you really pasteurize honey you purchase from the store before consuming? Not so much.

    Fruit Beer Raspberry Belgian Ale

    It finally started after about 1 day of raising the temp to 76'F. After seeing little white dots on the top of the wort I crashed back down to 67'F (12/12/2012). After 3 days of primary I added the honey and dark belgian candi sugar (12/15/2012). It's still going strong. Krausen hasn't...

    Fruit Beer Raspberry Belgian Ale

    What temp did you ferment at? I tried 67'F and so far nothing has started. It's been over 48 hours. I raised to 76'F....we'll see what happens :)

    Adding honey

    Yes but how do you add it to primary? Poor it right in? Dilute with some water? Dilute with some fermenting beer?
