I used southsides

i bottled mine lastnight. wasnt carbed but tasted as close as it get to the real. I had it on tap locally last week.

whats the carb level people using when you bottle it? i see most people seem to be kegging.

hers a site i have bookmarked. http://onebeer.net/refractometer.shtml

1 red ale 1 graham cracker ale 1 choc/pb stout 1 SMASH Maris/amarillo 1 stout Graff 1.5 choc.pb stout 6.5 + 10277.7 10284.2

i just got this for 1st time awesome beer, ill have to try that recipe ill do it on 1g scale using southsides recipe posted.

im going to cheat i decided just scale a stout recipe ive made before up enough to steal some for the graff. easiest way to do it.

nice im in. may get to step up my game.

I do the funnel for cooled wort to fermentor in 1g jug. I have a funnel with strainer from LHBS its a good 8" across big one. 1st time i did it strainer clogged. 2nd time I used my paint strainer bag in funne along with one in funnel and it didnt clog so try that of course all sanitized.

yea i used Chocolate PB2 instead of the nibs. tastes good in fermentor. theres a 1 gal recipe on page 2 i followed it with change of 6oz of choc pb2. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f12/chocolate-covered-beavr-nutz-362380/

nice. Im new but have me a pipeline going too havent had my 1st real bottle yet. but i have 2 bottled batches and 2 fermenting. Red Ale extract, Graham Cracker Ale, Choc/Peanut butter Stout, SMASH Maris/Amarillo all grains. So my progress it working out im coming out ballpark of recipes and the...

ok thanks. i ended up trying out beersmith app its pretty nice tool.

Im looking to do SMASH for next brew is there a rule of thumb for lbs of malt per gal of finished vol?

im interested in doing this also. i would think you would get pretty big boil off with such little water so could double the water. Yea i do 1 gal batches of beer and the oven holds temp thru mash pretty good just preheat it to 170(lowest mine goes) then stove up to temp then mash in oven turn...

Why not try both. Do it on small scale. Scale it down maybe go with 2 1 gal batches. Then decide what suits your taste then go 5g. You could mash 2 gal then split boil if you have 2 pots.

3 PC airlock all I've used

i have used both. I like the bucket better i think because it holds a little more so can put all my wort in not have to cut to a little short to not over fill. So my process may become primary in bucket secondary if needed in jug. Im a beginner havent had an explosion yet doing primary in jug.

nice setup thanks for the info.

finally brewed my 1 gal batch today. process was great ended up 17.8 -17.9 brix so about 1.073-1.074 OG bubbling few mins after airlock put on.

Yea think I'll just do the vodka thing in ziplock so min liquid and use good kind not cheap.
