The problem is getting all those hops in pellet form right now.....:mad: Never fear....I scored a couple of pounds of cascade, amarillo, centennial, and simcoe in leaf form last week...let the IPA continue. Oh and you should try my version of Dude's Lake Walk Pale.....I...

Since I got all paranoid and bought lots of dry hops at the end of the year, I will now be using them for more than dryhopping, but I have never used them in the boil. How much wort loss do you have to account for with typical hopping? Say a Pale ale has 3 oz's total of leaf hops, how much...

Does it give off a sulfury smell at initial fermentation?:(

Sweet! another brewer from Down East. Welcome.:mug:

They are still better than North Carolina's......We can't even get World Wide Stout or Dogfish 120's :mad:

Suprisingly enough, the hops are not very present in the tastings. As for Chocolate, it has 1 lbs of Ghirardelli dark chocolate added at 10 mins in the boil, and 1/2 lbs of Ghirardelli semi sweet nib added to the secondary. Again, I am following a local Micro's recipe. They set the % of...

The recipe is from a local micor that won a couple of medals at GABF, and they were knid enough to share. It was quite alot, though. Thank you both for the help.

I did the following imperial stout, and was shotting for a slightly sweeter finish. Right now it tastes very roasted, with only a subtle chocolate hint and no noticeable residual sweetness. Any suggestions? Could Lactose be added to secondary? Would that help? Next batch will ahve less...

Copy and Paste...thats what i do:D

So post the Cori-wheat recipe...;)

Wahooo! that is damn fine to hear, as I love this one and am brwing it again this weekend.:rockin:

Thanks so much for all the feedback. I am glad you liked them. I dry hopped with Glacier plugs for at least a week on this one.

Coriander Wheat Aroma: Nice spicy aroma with hints of clove and coriander. It is very enticing. 9/12 Appearance: Super good clarity. I was expecting it to be hazy. It has a nice straw gold color. there was little head, and very little lacing. 2/3 Flavor: Oh this is good. The...

Vanilla Orange Kolsch Aroma: a unique spicy aroma overshadows the malt and hops(which are light in a Kolsch anyway). Very subtle but pleasing orange and vanilla undertones on the nose. 6/12 Appearnace; Crystal Clear, straw gold color with a nice small white head, that left good lacing...

Ok here goes: Vanilla Cream Ale Aroma: Faint malt notes, no hops present on nose. Mild and pleasant. 8/12 Appearance: A little darker than I expected for the style. No head retentiion or lacing to speak of, little to no chill haze. 2/3 Flavor: This beer has a lite malt flavor...

Thanks again, BM. I am not a fan of this one. The Kolsch yeast failed on arrival from White labs, so after 3 days of waiting I re-pitched s-04 dry. I did use Extra light DME, and Irish moss, but I know I boiled the extract to long, and didn't quite get the fermentation temp controled the...

Thanks so much BM.... I expected the comments, as I really couldn't classify this beer when i brewed it. I was trying to appease a BMC buddy and convert him at the same time. I will do this again, and willmake your changes, to see what the Helles should be. NOW THIS IS THE TYPE OF...

I sent our the following: Cream Ale #65 777 Rye IPA Junk Yard Dog Edworts Kolsch Munich Helles Not every one got every beer, but I enclosed the recipes for each ( with the exception of the Kolsch, if you like it, Ed has the recipe.) Feel free to comment on the labels, as they are...

Quilty of that one! made a 1 galllon Helles to try the recipe prior to making 5 gallons worth.....Damn it was good...and gone fast.

Dubbel Dog Aroma: Complex rich malt aroma with caramel hints. (8/12) Appearance: Slight haze. Good head retention. Color appropriate to style. (2/3) Flavor: Very interesting flavor with a strong clover presence. Not a lot of hops noticeable.(16/20) Mouthfeel: Good body with a...
