Cool, I want to make this. Have you done it yet? Any suggestions?

Hey there, new to the area and would love to get in on an order if this works out. Let me know if I can and what I'd need to do. Thanks! Saul

Considering making this in a few weeks. (all grain--5 gallon) I have not had great experience with honey flavor coming from a flameout addition, what are the thoughts on adding .5# honey malt (and dropping down .5# of wheat) and adding 1# of honey shortly after high krausen? Also, what is the...

Hey All, Perfect place to vent...maybe even get some support. My buddy and I split the cost of a converted kegerator from CL. It was kind of a rash buy, we have been talking about making the upgrade for some time and when we saw the post we just went with it. Probably paid a little too...

Thanks for that! Here is what it looks like:

Hey All, About to make the big move to kegging. I found a kegerator (convereted stacked fridge freezer) along with a Pony keg, co2 tank, regulator, tubing, tap on CL. A few questions: 1. I would like to add two more taps, do you think would I be able to fit 2 more cronies in there with...

Thanks so much!

Awkward typo...hop

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA0MC0KX8242 Good scale? I can getit for $15. Can't tell how many sig figs I can get on it. Want it to at least show one decimal place. I imagine I will not use it for more than 2 ounces at a time, but as low as .25 oz. (mainly for hops)...

Hi All, Something that bothers me about Cider is the lack of head retention. I love it, just no head. I was thinking to brew a gallon or half a gallon of just flaked wheat and tossing into a 5 gallon batch. Thoughts? Maybe add a little apple extract before botteling to keep the flavor...

I don't know too too much about it, but I've added at around flameout and nothing came through. Just boosted the gravity. I've heard at high krausen works well. I intend on doing this next time I use honey. Other option...use a bit of honey malt.

For a while I was collecting the extra pre-boiled wort from themash and was going to brew with it once I had a workable amount. It smelled rather interesting, but than I moved and sadly threw it away. Sorry for the anticlimactic story.

Hhha will do. Thanks for all the advice.

Interesting points. I want to keep it as a Pale Ale/IPA type ish. You make a good point about overpowering the honey. I was originally thinking floral hops, but noticed citra was used a lot with honey. In order to combat the overpowering, what do you think about raising the honey to 1#? As well...

Hmm, all really good points. I am looking for that honey taste. Call it what you want, but I want a slight bitterness to it, maybe more of a pale than an IPA. I wanted the Munich to give it some more character and malty notes. I am going to drop the oats, you are right. Do you think the...

Okay, cool. I still really want that strong sweet flavor...here is where I am at now. 6.5 # 2-row .75 # Honey malt 1.5 # wheat malt (white?) .5# of flaked oats (does this matter? good ratio? etc) 1 # Munich 10 L .5 oz CTZ @ 60min .5 oz Citra @ 60min 1 oz Citra @15min 1 oz Citra @5min Yeast...

Hang in there man. This too shall pass... Best of luck, enjoy the kids.

Thanks for all the feedback. I have never used honey malt before, and didnt realize it was so strong. I am going to scale it down to .75#. And increase the base malt and wheat. What are the thoughts on doing 1# wheat malt and 1# of flaked wheat? Or 1.5# wheat malt and .5# flaked? I will add...

Hmm, thanks for the feedback. I was considering adding some more late hop additions for the aroma, maybe even a dry hop... Regarding the honey, I threw honey in the boil one time and it went straight to fermentables, with no trace of it in the taste. If I do use honey, is there a moe opportune...

Anybody?
