    Why I avoid bars in my area

    Oxyclean Vs Aluminum (sorry)

    Boil it with water and a healthy squirt of dish detergent in the boil. I do this in any supercaked pots. Heat will loosen the grease, dish detergent will disperse it. Watch the boil and drop to simmer the second it starts. Good luck! Mmmmmmm fried chicken.

    Shed Mountain Ale Clone

    This stuff on nitro might be too good. You'd end up having to move. And if you've got 20 gallons of this stuff, there's a house for sale right around the corner.

    Shed Mountain Ale Clone

    Drank a carbed beer at fridge temp and then warmer,around 50-55F. This beer definitely benefits from a higher temp. Now I just have to wait for it patiently if that's possible. Thanks for the recipe, this will be brewed again AG in August and I'll let you know how it goes.

    Shed Mountain Ale Clone

    This baby just went into bottles and I gotta say it is the best tasting warm flat beer I've had in a long time. Only got her down to 1.023 so 6.4% is still a nice number and there are no alcohol notes. Caramel, chocolate, vanilla, good stuff. Thanks for the recipe and now the wait begins.

    Lactose changing gravity reading

    Does anyone know offhand if Beersmith calculates Lactose addition into the OG measurements? It is listed in the grain section so I am guessing it does. I just didn't want to get too excited about my efficiency (82%) if Beersmith doesn't figure it into the equation. If it doesn't, does anyone...

    Fermenting Questions

    We brewed an Irish Stout on the 26th of February. We hooked up a blow off tube for the first 3 days and then fitted and air lock onto the glass carboy. On March 8th (11 days after brewing), our brew woke me up in the middle of the night making all sorts of noises not usual to the previous days...

    Shed Mountain Ale Clone

    Just made this tonight. LHBS was out of Carastan so substituted Crystal 40l. I did the ibu calculations and they were a bit low so tossed a full oz. of Cascade in there. It looked and smelled great. Nailed the OG at 1.072 and am really looking forward to the vanilla. Favorite of mine is...

    Underhopped?

    The recipe says hops only no specific strains and I guess it's up to the guy at the HBS to give you the correct or what you want. Cascade was probably not the best choice but we're new at this and it isn't gonna kill it. Good new is that stuff is bubbling every second into blowoff pot even...

    Underhopped?

    Yes it is a 5 gallon batch. OG is 1.050. It was a Brewer's Best kit and we are not overly worried but confused how the recipe can possibly state such a higher number expected and give the ingredients for what we figure is around 15. It may be a little more sweet than originally hoped for but...
