You got it! Thanks for all your help.

Never thought about that, good tip. Thanks!

Why a hop sack?

I tried replying to your message but your inbox was full. My thoughts exactly! Use Beer Smith to get the 10% ABV while keeping the IBU's at 70. I did find the Thomas Fawcett amber malt, which I'm very happy about, and I will try a pound of British medium crystal malt, like you suggested. I...

So, how did it go? Any luck brewing this bad boy?

Really?! If placing a strip on a keg is and then looking at it periodicaly is "a lot of work"... oh my!

"There is nothing like the feel of two super absorbent, expanding cellulose sponges, made from 100% non-woven viscose material, touching me up and down, in a cyclonic action, making a dirty carboy like me, feel so good... I mean clean..." said the DIRTY carboy.

Gonna be brewing a robust porter this weekend and i got my hands on some peanut butter powder. http://www.bellplantation.com/ Just wondering if I should add in the boil (last 15-30 min) or in secondary. Any thoughts?

You can try this place, they brew their own. Beer is good, the burgers are off the charts! http://www.bigbearbrewingco.com/

BTW, just wanted to give a shout out to reddskinnfan for this recipe: http://hopville.com/recipe/242946/imperial-ipa-recipes/reddskinnfans-nugget-nectar-clone I brewed this about a month ago, and it's GONE! Outstanding recipe, thanks!! Some of you saw this already, but we made a video of...

That's exactly what I meant. Thank you! No worries, I found chocolate malt. Crisis averted! Thanks to all who helped.

So toasting the base malt will NOT work? no chocolate notes from toasting? Wish I had chocolate, but can't get it by tomorrow. Just trying to come up with something. How about adding some cocoa powder to the mash maybe, or the boil?

Gonna be brewing Janet's brown ale tomorrow, but unfortunately I have NO chocolate malt! Recipe calls for: 12 lb 2-row 1.25 lb cara 1.25 lb crystal 60 1 lb wheat .5 lb chocolate My buddy hooked me up with some black malt, so my question is: Can I substitute the...

Anything made by Oskar Blues.

Ah-ha! Now we're talking. Thanks!

Hey guys, Got an aeration question: When using those red O2 tanks you buy at home improvement stores, along with a regulator, a 2' micron air stone, and some tubing, do you still need an SS aeration wand? Or can you just use some small clamps to fasten the stone to the tubing? $35 bucks seems...

Everybody was fine, just in complete shock. The pain of losing all that grain hurt more than the minor burns on our feet. We should have never put that cooler on the floor and then try to lift it back up. The weight and the hot temps made the plastic handle snap. Fortunately, we collected 6...

We actually collected 6 gallons in our first runnings, so we ended up with a nice, high gravity, 5 gal batch. Thanks for the info, this was a recipe we found on Hopville.com, not an exact clone, but a good beer none the less (minus 5 gallons).

While we are the subject of disasters... here is what happened to us.
