    Anyone have a recipe for Lush?

    After tasting and comparison to your satisfaction, I'd love to see how you would revise the recipe.

    Anyone have a recipe for Lush?

    Thanks for the pioneering effort and for sharing your results. Do you think you’d double the honey malt back to a full pound as in the first recipe you posted? Glad you can get Lush there. There was only one place in my area (Trader Joe’s) that had it for awhile, but now nothing.

    Anyone have a recipe for Lush?

    I've tried the (also unverified) approach of crashing, then coming back up to 65F and dry-hopping then. Can't say I could tell the difference.

    Thanks for keeping us updated. Interesting thought on the cold crash.

    Anyone have a recipe for Lush?

    PLEASE let us know how it turns out. I am obsessed with Lush IPA. I haven't found any other threads on trying to clone it.

    Hop Valley Alphadelic IPA clone recipe?

    Thanks, I will try contacting them. Their web site does list the grains and hops used, which is a great start. I'm hoping someone has tried to brew it and might have a bit more insight.

    Hop Valley Alphadelic IPA clone recipe?

    Has anyone tried to clone this beer? I have searched this forum and elsewhere, can't find anything. If anyone has a recipe they are willing to share, I'd greatly appreciate it.

    Ohmbrew automations fermostat

    +1 on the weird stuff happening. I used it for a couple of brews and it worked perfectly. Then for some reason the temp probe/cable failed. They sent me a new probe and cable, for free, even though I'd purchased it in 2014, so very responsive customer service. But I lost temp control of the...

    Backflushing a Chugger pump?

    Why don't you just take it apart and clean it out? You only have to remove 4 screws.

    pitched too warm/cooled quickly

    I did the exact same thing recently and the beer turned out great. You will probably be fine.

    fermostat no temp probe error - HELP!

    Just got a 20 gal batch to the fermenter and my Ohmbrew Fermostat is throwing a "no temp probe" error. Never seen it before. Probe looks fine and is connected. Have rebooted over and over, keep clearing the error in settings but it just keeps doing it. Really stuck, any suggestions appreciated.

    Heather Ale: batch (probably) ruined after a "dry" addition of heather

    FWIW, I brewed a Heather Ale once, also used meadowsweet, and while it didn't get infected or have any other issues, it still sucked. When I first started brewing I was really into specialty beers and tried a lot of things, some more successful than others, but the heather one was truly...

    Torn between buying a house.. 2 opposite choices

    This might not help you but from experience I would tell you that going by online school ratings, API scores, etc. you can't tell how the schools will work for your kids. We sacrificed a great deal to move into a very expensive (real estate) school district with the highest API scores and...

    Beers You Used To Drink

    Drank massive amounts of Robin Hood Cream Ale in college, especially freshman and sophomore years. Still remember the catchphrase printed on the labels: "Hail ye, men of adventure! Join Robin Hood for a truly satisfying cream ale." One time I had a bottle of it that, after I was almost...

    How long before I see a sprout

    I have seen a lot of variance in my first year hops so far. Some broke ground within two weeks, other rhizomes of the same strain (Cascade) in the same dirt/light/water took over two months to come up. It surprised me when they sprouted. I just thought they were dead.

    Fermentation Enclosure for heating and cooling?

    There are a lot of ways to approach it but if you don't have the time or inclination for DIY, you can get a two-stage controller like a Fermostat (which is what I have) and you can use a heating pad on the carboy (I use two but I have a 31 gallon fermenter) if you don't like using a lightbulb.

    Digital Temperature Controller For Fermentation Recommendation

    I haven't tried any others, but I have the Fermostat by OhmBrew and it's great. Comes fully assembled and ready to go, very easy to use.
