I think mine settled too much ended up being about 30 min between times had to get the little kids to bed.. it seems like there isnt much left in there.. I will still try some yeast nutrients and see if i can get a starter going for my next esb anyways.. it cant hurt.. atleast its a learning curve..

Personally for me i cant do anything with cloves everything else sounds atleast interesting.. :)

I really dont like to have to add water.. last time for my first 10gal full boil i started with 13 gallons and ended up having to add back about 1.5 gallons.. on a grain steep extract brew.. should be racking to secondary on Christmas.

I am curious to see what everyone thinks .. Yes I LOVE hoppy ales and made a few so far last one was a Nugget single hop ale with a tad lower OG and it is doing great but still over 200IBU where this is even more of a hop monster @ 298 IBU... I plan on starting this one Early Christmas day...

I dry hopped in a bucket 2ndary using whole hops but put mine in a bag and it was HOPTASTIC i used 3oz Cascade whole hops... Infact its one recipe i will do again for sure!

I like hoppy beers and with that much malt my last one would have had about 10x that much hops I really like willamette but i used iirc 10oz total.. :)

My local HBS sells the Muntons DME and their LME a few versions of each infact.

I have only kegged 2 batches so far never bottled except from a keg. The second time i put the beer in on a thursday night and was drinking it saturday night out of a growler i took to my LHBC Holliday dinner. I got some great reviews on this and the first beer being they were my first and...

BTW this intent was a quick turn around and it seems like it going good so far.. will it be the best esbAlt bier.. i guess not..but will be fun to do again once we have the beer flow going.. getting another carboy and brew pail this week and so is my brew neighbor so we will have 5 sets total...

So I think i got my Yeast too clean.. seems to only have about 1/8th inch of stuff maybe at the bottom on the pint jars. I what was left of the half gallon jar i used and added some dextrose to it last night to see if i could get anything going and so far it doesnt seem to be doing anything...

Any idea what the temp of the solution should be when your do the first transfer? is colder bad better or doesn't matter? Thanks

$50 wow.. thats got to be one of the higher priced beers per oz.. Even higher than most of the Mikkeller Brews..

I have decided that last week i am doing every other batch a 10 gal batch.. especially since i share about half my beer with an assistant.. I made him finally get his own carboy and keg setup at home so i dont have to fill growlers 3x's a week.. we will see first 10gal batch is still in primary..!

just throwing darts in the air.. but maybe your temps are too low?
