@mabrungard Is this more like what we should be looking for?

Yep. I agree that I won't be measuring that precisely :). I will take your advice and add all the minerals to the mash water. Do you think we should be targeting 50 ppm of Ca? If so, should we be thinking adding gypsum , CaCl2, or a combination? (other water profile suggestions are welcome)...

My father-in-law bought the European Pilsener kit from Midwest Supplies. We plan on using 100% distilled water to create a simple water profile: Ca=30, Mg=0, Na=0, Cl=53, SO4=0 The recipe contains the following: 9 lbs. Domestic Pilsner Malt 8 oz. Carapils 8 oz. Crystal 10L Malt If I keyed...

I got the same one for Christmas from my Wife... cooked some rib eyes at 129*F for 1 hour and then browned them on the cast iron..... AMAZING!!

Thanks guys points taken!! Maybe I need to re-think the hops... is there a suggested hop schedule, while keeping to the Z A C type hops? ... maybe sticking to Zythos, Amarillo, and Citra? I will ensure I add gypsum to the water.

My son is about 2 months old and I would like to develop a beer recipe in his honor. I was thinking of using his nickname "ZAC" as inspiration for the hops by using "Z", "A", and "C" hops and brewing an Imperial IPA. This is what I was thinking; any pointers would be greatly appreciated...

worlddivides thank you for your thoughts... 5 gallons is a lot and I understand the costs... I have made these liqueurs numerous times when I had a few 5 gallon carboys on hand. I plan on giving these out as gifts in an upcoming wedding and if there is any left over, Christmas too. I agree...

Hey All, I plan on making Pear Vodka and Apple Brandy Liqueurs (separately). I currently have an open 5 gallon food grade bucket. Is it Safe/Wise to infuse these alcohols in this bucket? I plan on infusing for 4 - 8 weeks (depending on the recipe). Is there any chances of leaching flavors...

Thanks JonM! I guess there is no advantage of the controller having "full" control over the fridge (possibly bringing the fridge lower than the Max Cold Temp). On Max Cold the fridge gets down to 36 deg. F. This should be good for lagering. Thanks for your help! MT

Hey all, I received some kegs and an A419 Johnson Digital Temperature Controller for Christmas. I am going to prepare my first Lager and would like the Johnson Controller to have full control over the refrigerator (I am also going to use it as a kegerator. Is there a way I can bypass...
