^^^ hollaaaa...basement temp never above 68. Swamp chillers are perfect.

Surly Furious

This looks fun...I'm new to the swap, do I get to create my own recipe? or is there a mutual one to follow?

Hmm...probably won't the first time then. Thanks for the help!

Thanks a ton. Will hopefully be making one this weekend. In the meantime...it looks as though I have to stock up the cellar with...research...and more carboys. Does ferm temp matter as much with Lambics and sours? or is it one of those "avoid the extremes" kind of things? And how/when would I...

Thanks for the quick reply. Here are a few more if your up for it... Will the oak stand out a lot? What dregs would you recommend(I know some aren't meant for reuse)? Did you pitch the Lambic blend, roselare and brett at the same time?

Good to know. Going to try that next time.

He'brew Lenny's RIIPA...apparently I'm not a rye fan...

Sweet. That'll save a step. You've got more batches under your belt than I do. I let pressure off only because a few videos I had watched did it.

there are a few threads on this. it does work. i have an empty one myself waiting for beer. all you do is empty it (as painful as it might be), unscrew the co2 cartridge, fill it when you bottle, let it carb naturally. then when ready to drink, purge it slightly, not completely, then replace...

drank 8 Red Hook Long Hammers then steeped grains at about 190 for 15 minutes...forgot the hop schedule, pitched too high and fermented hot. Learned my lesson...

Got mine!!

1. Orange juice (with pulp) 2. Breaking Benjamin "Dear Agony" 3. Winter Warmer, chocolate milk stout and dead ringer ipa now bottled.

Any update?

hahahahaha awesome comment :ban:

I haven't seen it ever, maybe some of the more select places carry it but I've never seen it.
