    Cocoa Nibs and Vanilla in Alc.

    For a imperial stout like this. In beersmith. Should I use stout water profile or the black full profile? If I had to guess. Black full??

    Skip Oxygenation?

    I usually set my spike o2 to 1/4lpm and do 30 seconds a gallon. So about 3min or 3:30. But for this one I was gonna do a solid 6-7 min. Slow and steady

    Cocoa Nibs and Vanilla in Alc.

    After soaking these in the liquor of choice? always strain to pour in unitank? or dump all the contents ( chopped up Vanilla bean and nibs that have been soaking? i am imagining just dump it all in my unitank via dry hopper since it will be under some pressure....

    How to Carbonate Stout on Beer Gas?

    Thanks. I think I'm able to stuff.( It will be tight as heck) 4th keg in my keezer so I ordered the tank/reg and another kegland 5g pony. I'll have my neighbor put 25/75 in tank since I'm using my same kegerator that keeps beer at 36*

    How to Carbonate Stout on Beer Gas?

    So my neighbor works for airgas I give him my CO2 tanks and he brings them back next day. That being said for stout or nitro beers. They have 25/75 and 30/70 which one should I get for my stout keg? I want to make sure I tell him the best one or preferred one. @day_trippr it may not even matter

    Is black barley malt (roasted) as well that's all I see in morebeer. Also cara malt? I don't see it on Morebeer unless they call it something else.

    Powder isn't added because not sure if anything it changes on this. Plus beersmith doesn't have it on list but I scaled it for my 7.25g post boil and 6-6.5g in unitank. Look good? Except it suggests 3 packages of yeast. At this amount and 1.104 SG I'm excited. Gonna start ordering ingredients...

    Adding cacao nibs to a stout

    So the pressure gauge and partial. U mean if I was to use straight CO2 for initial carbing in unitank. Set CO2 to 5psi if I wanted to carb it with the beer gas. I use 20psi? For like 7-10 days? In this case I'll probably do my standard pressure ferm and have spunding valve set at 8 psi At 68*...
