Beer turned out fantastic. Definately didn't overdue it with the honey malt. I would suggest using .5lb. I wasn't happy with my color at first (looked brownish), but she is red now! Anyone looking for an extract version, I would try mine.[emoji482][emoji482][emoji482]

Ive kegged mine and will be carbed in the next few days. Will report back, it seems im the only one who tried out a extract recipe.

.5lbs

I decided to wave the honey as well and add some honey malt. My extract batch is in the pail and I will let you know the final verdict when I keg it

Doing an extract batch and going with the following: 1lb caraaroma .5lb melanoiden malt .5lb honey malt (steeped @152F 30mins ) 6.5lb DME extra light 1oz crystal @60mins 1oz cascade @30mins No added honey OG: 1.054 IBU: 27.4 SRM: 15.8 Safale S-05

I tried to sift threw some of this for an extract version (I use to brew all grain but moved to a condo and space is limited) with no luck so I decided to make a 5 gallon one for myself using beersmith. Going to buy the ingredients on my way home and brew this up in following days. 2.5lbs...

1. Bottling costs lots of time and money (cleaning, santizer, caps, capper, filler) 2. Kegging is way less of a mess and your only syphoning into 1 container 3. Less storage space for kegging (stacks of 24 bottles) and dont have to collect bottles after drinking 4. Don't have to wait 3 weeks...

If your looking for a bitter pineapple, i second galaxy

That would be fine. Only ingredient i wouldnt exclude is the honey malt

Feel free to swap some grains around to get the color your going for but i strongly suggest using the same amount of chocolate ingedrients per gallon. You dont want to end up making a chocolate beer that doesnt taste like chocolate and as ive said previously the chocolate flavor is not sweet

1 gal is so small, are you doing extract or an all grain? The recipe should scale down fine, i know the ribs typcially come in 4oz packages tho.

Ya i just fermented at room temperature of my house. Its not super picky, s-05 is great. Only time you should worry about temp is if you want certain flavors from the yeast. I cant remember what my gravity readings are, if you use a desktop i think it will say at top of recipe. My abv was about...

Yes its for 5gal batch. I usually use anywhere from 1.25-1.5gal/lb when mashing. Let me know how it turns out for you

Im not deathbrewer (obviously) but people hit it with 1.25-1.50 quarts per lb of grain for water and almost every single mash is 60mins. If your ever not sure just go with 1.33 lb/g and 60mins and youll be fine

I was looking at a hard root beer recipes and they all seem to have tons of ingredients and seem rather lackluster. I was reading about the mountain dew wine: https://www.homebrewsupply.com/learn/brew-the-dew-mountain-dew-wine.html And im curious if you just take this recipe and make it into a...

I use french and american oak chips to add some oak cinnamon and vanilla flavor everytime i make this. I wouldnt be too worried about adding biscuit malt as victory is essentially the same thing minus the orange color

Howd you make out?

Im gonna make this soon, going to use all nugget hops (ive had alot of success with them) and hitting the 60 IBU and 8.3%abv thats on the founders website 1oz @60 and 1oz @30. I will be using 4oz of cocoa nibs in secondary and no bakers chocolate due to the fat content. As far as the coffee a...

Looks delicious, and the color looks great. Thanks for posting back and glad everything turned out well!
