Looks awesome. Just jumped on my LHBS's website and sure enough they have dark wheat malt. I saved some 3068 from my last hefe and was thinking of doing a dunkel next. I also happen to have an oz of Tett in the freezer. Thanks for the hookup on my next recipe!

That's exactly what I used and it worked very well. Next time I make it I'll use wyeast 1968 harvested from a batch of zombie dust I have going now.

Check out the first post.... I used 6 lbs wheat malt and 5 lbs 2 row. It was our first all grain and still one of the best batches we've made. Thanks for reminding me that I need to make it again.

I get the same thing in mine. I try to clean it out after each batch with a mild bleach solution. I haven't gotten around to it, but I plan to add an electronic dehumidifier or chemical desiccant like DampRid. The humidity gets very high in there and probably makes the mold problem worse...

Almost dead on with your specs at 1.050 and 1.008. I don't even think I'll do anything to improve my efficiency on the next batch. It's wonderfully refreshing and sessionable as is, which is in stark contrast to the 10.25% IIPA that's sitting next to it in the kegerator....:tank:

Man, I love this beer! Had it kegged last weekend after about 12 days in primary and carbed in 2 days. It's been getting a little better over the last week but I just don't think it needs much conditioning. Very light, crisp, and flavorful. Beautiful color. I wasn't picking up the citra at...

Same here. Brewed 2 weeks ago and took a gravity reading last night. Detected a faint sulfur smell. I used wyeast 3068 and read that it's normal. I'll keg this weekend and I expect it will be gone by this time next week.

Dangit! If I had read your recipe more closely, all my questions would have been answered. My bad. :drunk:

Conman, meant to ask before, what OG do you typically get for this? Brewed on Saturday and hit 1.050. Seemed a little low and a quick online calculation told me I had something like 68% efficiency. We use BIAB and I forgot to ask LHBS to do a double crush, so I suppose this is reasonable...

Picked up the ingredients for this today and should brew this weekend. After brewing a lot of hop bombs I'm really looking forward to this one. Thanks for the recipe, I'll let update in a few weeks.

We made almost this exact recipe (except cheated with Columbus for bittering) and it was the best beer we've made in our 1.5 years of brewing. That is, until we made the second version which added a small amount of crystal malt and a bunch more Columbus in late additions. Holy moly I love mosaic!

Looks really good. I love me some mosaic hops. Our last batch was a "smash" with MO and lots of mosaic. Used Columbus for bittering though. Best beer we've made. Definitely going to incorporate some parts of your recipe into the next iteration, or maybe just try yours as is. Never looked...

Sorry, started a new job and been working too dang much. This beer is absolutely amazing! Unfortunately this one didn't place but our bourbon barrel porter got 2nd. It wasn't a serious competition, just an excuse to get together with friends we hadn't seen in awhile and drink each other's...

Found this today when we went to rack into the keg. Spent about 6 weeks in primary due to a very busy holiday season and being busy at work. Had some friends over 2 weeks ago and they were interested in the homebrew so I popped this same one open very quickly. No infection at that time and it...

I have the 22 and while it works great and I love it, I think the 18 would have been plenty. I smoked 4 butts last weekend and had room for probably 4 more. My vote would be for the 18 and a temp controller. Check out tvwbb. Great community (just like this one) and tons of useful info on...

My love of all things whiskey started with scotch, but over the last few years my palate has drifted toward a preference for bourbon as well. In fact, I don't think I have any bottles of scotch at the moment, but I probably have at least 4 bottles of bourbon. When I do drink scotch, I really...

A GH clone was our very first BIAB, and it was incredibly similar to the original. We quickly had to make a second batch. I'm going by memory, but I'm pretty sure we used 6 lb of wheat malt and 5 lb of 2 row. We used caravienne instead of aromatic, but I'm not experienced enough to know what...

The wife and I brewed this one up on Friday as our first IPA. Had an OG of 1.085, even with BIAB and no extra grain, and we had an extra oz of cascade taking up space in the freezer so we threw it in as a FWH. We're hoping this is our winning entry in a homebrew competition with friends on Jan...

Thank you for all the suggestions. I haven't yet ordered any faucet prophylactics (although I really like the balloon idea), but I did try a trap with vinegar and dish soap and more than a few have met their doom. I haven't seen any around the kegerator or in my beer since I set out the trap.

We ordered 3 all-grain kits from NB with their recent buy 2 get 1 free deal. The grains are already milled. We've been doing BIAB for awhile now and always had our LHBS double mill. Efficiencies have been pretty good, and OG is typically right on or a little higher than expected. The crush...
