for all grain you need to worry about minerals, for extract, they used water with a mineral profile already and it's in the extract. This is why you get many different answers. When i was only boiling extract batches, or if I plan on doing an extract batch, I use city water. It tastes...

Get another cat. my cat took care of ours a few years ago. haven't seen evidence of a mole for a few years now..

here in chicago many many bars charge by abv. the 5.30 is pretty much dead on.

magnum works for bittering to, (i just prefer apollo for fwh) it is a matter of personal preference, and that alone. using galaxy at 20 minutes is not a bad thing, but I feel 20 min additions are better for hops like chinook, cenntennial, sorachi ace,, and hops like galaxy, of which i use...

i think your efficiency has to be way low for your 3.4%, i'm seeing 4.5% @ 75% efficiency 1.046 to 1.011 sticking to your grainbill, add .44kg of flaked oats. i'd go with: 14g apollo first wort hop 28g galaxy 0 min 10g Kohatu 0 min 15g Nelson Sauvin 0 min 28g Galaxy, 18g Kohatu, 10g Nelson...

I agree. pricewise, sure, seems like a no brainer. I order a lot from ali. Some of it packed nicely, some of it not so nicely. if yours made it safe, then why not give it a shot, for the price savings it may be worth the risk of damage in shipping.

Kristi is my wife..... I'm Dan. 😁

i've read the same thing. kyle. i'm going to pick up a 300 micron one for pellets. if my utilization goes down, then maybe start looking at a 400

I am a big fan of aliexpress, buy the one from your local hbs or Williams brewing. those are good prices and you are not going to beat under 40 (adding in shipping) for a product that someone will stand behind. (I don't see it fully making it here from china, unless you can find a "ships...

http://www.used--equipment.com/fillerfillingequipment.html?gclid=CKjxtPnv59MCFYF-fgodq1EIsg lots of used equipment there. keep in mind, most of it will need to be fitted to your specifications for it to be used. maheen is another company that may be helpful in getting answers, since they...

it's a lot easier to carbonate water than it is to carbonate water and syrup. the factories that bottle (like coke) do not carbonate the syrup, it's separate until the filler head. -I am pretty sure, do some research to confirm

my standard dry hop profile went from nothing, to late late additions and heavy dry hopping. The past two beers: had 5.5 oz of hops and 1 oz of hop hash. the next one is due for dry hopping on monday, and will get 3 oz hops (denali and galaxy), 1 oz lulapin citra powder (think 2+ oz citra...

And next up my summer beer

this is getting kegged, so only have to print of a few for growlers and of course, 1 for the keg.

Yeah, I was hoping it was just oils left from machining. I guess it's not. is it possible to return it and buy another one from a different source?

while mosaic is a great hop, for a single hop, Amarillo all the way.

I don't know how good star san is at breaking down oils since it's not a cleaner. I would cycle pbw through it, 20 minutes HOT or longer. then rinse, then see if that helps at all.

Agreed, not the same, but when we tried it both ways, We were more pleased with the licorice taste we got from anise over the licorice root (also 2.5 oz and same proceedures) I was just looking at the recipe when I corrected .5 to 2.5 oz.

http://www.homebrewing.org/Beginning-Homebrew-Kit_p_352.html (another option, add 20 for the pot) For extract you can boil water a few days before hand, put in a container and freeze it. then and add it to the wort when chilling. just make sure to sanitize the container.
