    Peanut butter or Nutella stout

    Perhaps pick some peanut brittle up at your local sweet shop and grate it into a powder. I can only imagine this would work and taste great. Why use flavoring when you can use the real thing.

    Looks like Northernbrewer/midwest at it again...

    Guess it is time to start growing fields of wheat and havesting our wild yeast. Getting back to the real basics.

    Fermentation stopped after 1 day

    Seeing this is an old post that I came upon when searching for the same problem, the one day fermentation and no active bubbling, thought I would chime in. I like what was said about the yeast still being active. I had assumed this was the case since my wort is still super cloudy and as with...

    Let's talk brand new Italian AEB kegs

    You are probably right about a block in the line. When cleaning the racking cane post transfer I did find pieces of whole hops. I only transfer at 5 psi max because I am afraid to go any higher. Did blow off the carboy cap a couple of times on this transfer and this generally does not happen...

    Let's talk brand new Italian AEB kegs

    Old post but thought I would chime in seeing as I have just used a Italian 5 gallon for the 1st time. Beautiful keg has rubber on both sides and you are able to flip it upside down and stand it up to ensure the sanitizer does its job. Voided the warranty day one removing posts and not...

    Too much grain ending up in my boil kettle

    Using sterilized equipment pre boil may appear overkill to you, but ever since we have found organisms and bacteria that survive in the sulfuric acid of your stomach (md's now prescribe antibiotics for ulcers and other stomach issues) as well as in boiling water conditions at the bottom of...

    First NEIPA on my BIAB System

    This is the grain bill to which I was referring from earlier is this thread. In my opinion better examples of a NEIPA do not include oats or honey malt. If you were intending for me to post the grain bill I have been successfully using... For a 4 gallon batch here it is: 5 lbs Briess Organic...

    First NEIPA on my BIAB System

    You can bottle from the keg when you have a keg system and a bottling wand. This is the best way to have proper carbonation and not have to reintroduce any extra sugar, or have flat bottles and bottles that may explode on you.

    First NEIPA on my BIAB System

    Sounds great, I'm sure it would be amazing to compare them side by side. I am from NYC where too many IPA's have either too much oats or added lactose that make the mouthfeel chalky and the taste a bit off from my preferred NEIPA's. The trinity recipe is straight orange juice without the...

    First NEIPA on my BIAB System

    Do you like milky ipa's or are you looking to make an IPA more like treehouse or trillium? Because if you are...... I would lose / replace a few items in your grain bill. Notably the wheat, oats and canadian, basically everything but the two row. My water profile slightly differs adding: 1g...

    Too much grain ending up in my boil kettle

    As stated run the wort and slowly pour back into the MT until running clearer. Use a sterilized pyrex measuring cup or a large wide mouth mason jar like I do. This should help. I have also heard that using rice hulls in the mash helps to settle the grain bed, keeping more of the grain above and...

    Do I dry hop on this? (Heavy krausen)

    Wait for the fermentation to stop, or at least slow down. It is completely possible to dry hop in a muslin bag (or two) and then cold crash. When you cold crash all of the yeast should fall out of suspension and in a day or two the hop bag/s will also sink. I have gotten plenty of flavor from...

    Belma Hops

    Actually I didn't buy Belma hops because they were cheap and an addition to my hop order I actively sought them out. First came across them in a LIC Beer Project beer Higher burnin' and man is this brew strawberry in your face... like I can't believe there aren't strawberries in here. A taste I...

    Belma Hops

    Hello. I know this thread is old already and that many of the responses to this thread are just to hate. Anyway, that being said... I brewed a Julius NEIPA all grain clone with Warrior as the bittering hop, and a ton of Apollo / Citra as continuous boil additions, i.e. aroma and body hops. No...

    Organic Beer Laced with Sanitizer????

    Wait.... So I shouldn't be transferring my organic two row wort onto the foam?

    Looking for a recipe similar to Lammsbrau organic pilsner, any ideas?

    Located this old thread searching for the Lammsbrau pils clone recipe. I am hoping to brew a pils soon and have found this one in particular is so incredibly delicious. From my understanding what makes this pilsner special is that the brewery in Neumarkt in der Oberpfalz uses local organic malt...
