Moved to Secondary although probably wasn't ready. Last sample was 1.016 and still going; tasted really good. Lots of banana.
It seems to be pretty murky still. When did others see the beer clear up?
Brewed this last Sunday, 1.23.11. Tried to follow recipe as much as possible. Did a partial following DeathBrewer's thread on partial mash. After boil, I was at 1.094 with 4 gl. Added 1.5 gl to make 5.5 gl and pitched two packets of 3787. Very active fermentation, blew out the airlock...
Hi All,
Long time drinker, first time brewer. I broke the brewing cherry yesterday with a double chocolate oatmeal stout. I figured I'd brew what I love to drink. Keeping my fingers crossed. Can't wait to try it.
Located in Denver.
Cheers!
I broke my brewing cherry with this recipe. It sounded so good and I wanted to brew the kind of beer I like to drink. Great recipe. I added about 8oz. of black onyx cocoa powder. Made the wort turn black as night. I pitched the yeast, and as of this morning, its bubbling away.
