Thanks for the help. I will be attempting this on Sunday wish me luck!

Oops that should be .13gal/lb which would be closer to what you suggest .5qts/lb.

I'm sure it won't end up as planned as Murphy always finds me. I just wanted to make sure the mash and sparge numbers were calculated right. In the end I will have beer, and it with some luck it will be good beer! On second thought it will be good beer because I made it! I think I have the...

I am attempting my first all grain this weekend and want to verify my numbers and make sure that I have my calculations right. I have a 10 gallon cooler with false bottom and 15 gallon brewpot. I am using iBrewmaster to help with sparge calculations. Do these numbers make sense: 5.25...

I'm looking at the 15 gallon version of this: http://www.peoplesrestaurantequipco.com/products/Update-International-SPS%252d40-40-Quart-Stock-Pot.html Looks like it might be decent.

Long time member, with a few years off from brewing. I picked back up recently and have 5 extract/pm batches back under my belt since probably 15 in total. I am going to purchase equipment for AG. I need to upgrade my 5 gallon kettle and have decided on a 15 gallon kettle in case I decide to...

I have washed yeast successfully from the primary on my past two brews and used one in a brew today and it took off like crazy with the 2L starter. These were washed from primary after 2 weeks while racking to secondary. Is there any issue using yeast that has been in primary for 4-5 weeks...

Leaning... Not peanut

Don't mean to hijack this thread, but I would be interested in seeing your recipe smallie if you don't mind posting. I have been researching a pumpkin brew for this fall and I am peanut towards the AHS pumpkin ale because of the good reviews.

Subscribed to this thread. Tmurph, how is this brew coming along? Thanks

Thanks rob, That is what I was thinking with the peach. Any thoughts on the ginger? Should I include in the boil with first addition of hops like the recipe says or would that be better as a secondary addition with the peaches?

Bumpity Bump... Any thoughts on this recipe? Also instructions say to put peaches in with grains and remove just before boil, squeezing as much juice as possible from them. The Ginger is to be added with the first hop addition and removed after boil. Does this sound like a good method of...

I am looking for a fruity lager for SWMBO and spotted JMs American Peach Ginger Lager recipe in the BYO magazine a while back. Just wounding if anyone has tried it and if so do you recommend it or would you change something up. It looks something like this: 4 lbs. Muntons light dry malt...

Thanks for the suggestions, I am at about 80% fermentation and think I will rack to secondary today to get it off the yucky stuff. I think i will leave at 50 degrees until fermentation is complete, then slowly lower to 35 degrees and lager for 3-4 weeks.

Just started brewing again after a 4 year break. Anyhow, I have my first lager in fridge fermenting away at 50 degrees for about a week now. OG was 1.042 and FG suspected to be around 1.009. Gravity readings were 1.015 (about 80% fermented by my calculaions) today and still bubbling once...

There is a handy little calculator that I use from time to time here: http://www.buildabeer.org/beercalc.htm It can calculate gravity for honey, apple juice, and many sugars. I am not sure exactly how accurate it is, but it has worked out for me a couple times. Hope this helps....
