I feel like this is a dangerous 'Challenge Accepted' moment for me... so I'll just back away while saying 4 pack of Old Rasputin 4 pack of Delerium Tremens and a couple double shots of Jack...

I forgot to repost after the taste test... It's very malty and has great body, not overly bitter and pretty well balanced. The 4oz of hops (pellet btw) is due to not being able to full boil and the hops having such low AA%, being EKG and Willamette they blend well with the malts. Brown Sugar...

I just brewed one last Friday 1/19: 6 Lbs Light DME 1 can Lyle's Black Treacle .5 Biscuit .5 Crystal 40 .25 Carapils 4oz Roasted Barley 1oz EKG - 60 min 1oz Willamette - 60 min 1oz EKG - 30 min 1oz Willamette - 30 min Partial Boil, steeped for about 45min... Was thrown onto a yeast cake of...

Very sorry, missed that part... He means for you to steep it like with kits, it's to add color and some caramel flavor. If it were a partial mash situation you'd have at least some base malts (2-row) in with it to aid in conversion. This way (steeping) you get color and some flavor without...

The extras (malto dex and vanilla) go into the boil. I did them at 15 minutes left back when I made it just to sanitize. The priming list is to be used instead of other priming methods, just boil them together with some water you'll be good. Just cool and add to the bottling bucket and then rack...

The vodka you're looking for is by Van Gough, at least that's the best.

Oh there is enough, i like to let them sit though for a while. the first thing i did after making my OP was update my sig lol.

WHAT?!? That can happen all it wants, that proves to me my yeast is.... (if i dare) fertile... lol, anyway that's twice a batch has done that. Here i thought the yeast was possibly a dud. Also this proves that 6+ month old crushed grains can still be used... as i've done a couple times...

So after my job and school got in the way of brewing i finally got something brewed Saturday. It was a hobgoblin clone except i had some hops that had been in the freezer for a while so i figured i'd used them. Brewed and everything went well, i even got to use the wort chiller i had bought from...

Have you been thinking about having it adaptable for bigger systems and maybe trying to sell the software/interface to craft/microbrewers?

How much??? I want it!

What you mean like "Ointment from the doctor" or "a hot girl to eat with 'em/give them to/scratch them" I would agree with some of the Lighter Lager choices, just not domestic, i'd say that Pils-Urquel or maybe Spaten would go nice, and fairly easy to find. IPA would be too domineering as...

4 pounds was perfect left the beer flavor with the slight strawberry flavor... it wasnt too tart just slightly. wasnt bad at all

Zombfelwein anyone? A little Decomposure Stout?

im just glad to know that if the world ends tomorrow, as long as i get the ingredients i can make alcohol....

If it was an extract kit the odds are you didn't mix the top up water well with the wort. Meaning that the reading you got was watered down. The best thing to do is taste it. If it tastes fine leave it. If it was extract it's HIGHLY doubtful that your SG missed by .030. I personally would leave...

Square on the head. lol... and it was 1.044 lol. didn't have any problems lautering amazingly probably because i did a protein rest before and that kept it from creating those annoying little flaked barley clumps. i didn't mash that low for the stout i think i was at 153 or 154 maybe a little...

Saccharomyces is a genus in the kingdom of fungi that includes many species of yeast. Saccharomyces is from Latin meaning sugar fungi. Many members of this genus are considered very important in food production. One example is Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is used in making wine, bread, and...

1. a rest at 133 and a sac rest at 152, Boscos is the local brewpub got free yeast from them. it was EWHPA to a T except the first hop addition got a bit more time because i ran out of propane just as i added them, I did use Saccromyces pill and yeast nutrient, so. 3. Yeah, i'm gonna go ahead...

Yeah i figured it's stay rather high, mine was 2 row (don't have recipe, at work), 3 lbs of Flaked Barley, and 1.5 lbs of Roasted Barley (maybe more). I don't remember the hops lol. The recipe was for a 1.044 OG (which is good according to BJCP), so i'm calculating like a 3.5% ABV which is a...
