Thanks! I ended up buying mine off Amazon: Amazon.com : Breadtopia Organic Diastatic Malt Powder 8 oz. | Non-GMO Malted Barley Flour | No Additives, No Sugar, & No Fillers | Milled from Whole Malted Barley Kernel | : Grocery & Gourmet Food There are other brands out there too. I probably...

I've been doing some experiments with Diastatic Malted Barley Flour to see if it actually makes any difference with my bakes. The first test was with some Sourdough loaves but I wanted to try them in something that does typically call for it... Pretzels! If you're not sure what diastatic...

I like to be heating my water up by 8am, but in the winter that isn't always possible due to it being so cold out. As long as I've cleaned my kettle and everything before dark, I'm happy.

80.2 + 5 gallons Neomexicanus Saison = 85.2

Rice lager with Mandarina Bavaria hops

Aleppo pepper is something I've wanted to bake with for a long time. I finally got my hands on some and added it to these loaves, along with some mozzarella cheese! Since I hadn't ever used Aleppo pepper before, I wasn't sure how much to use. I took a wild guess and chose 10g which was...

Looks great! My personal preference is for the crust to be darker, but other than that, the scoring and rise looks perfect

I've started playing around with different dough recipes in an effort to minimize how much work is involved. This recipe only requires 10 minutes of kneading in a stand mixer, 2 hours of fermentation at room temp and then proofing in the fridge for a minimum of two hours. There isn't any...

I finally took some time to revive my sourdough starter that had been performing poorly. To test it out, I baked this loaf with habanero pepperjack cheese, pickled guajillo peppers and bacon. Full recipe and method with more pics here: Habanero Pepperjack Cheese, Guajillo Pepper and Bacon...

I demolished my paprika, red chile and roasted bell pepper loaves a lot faster than I was expecting. What else was I supposed to do aside from make more bread? This time I made two loaves with garlic and rosemary added for an extra punch of flavor and aroma. Full recipe with more pics and...

I wanted a flavorful bread and definitely got it! This batch is loaded with roasted red bell peppers, smoked paprika and New Mexico red chile powder. I used the overnight schedule from FWSY and it came out really well. Full recipe with method and more pics here: Overnight Loaves w/ Roasted Red...

6,004.5 + 5 gallons Red Ale w/ 100% Mosaic = 6,009.5

I got 2 packets of dry Lutra in the mail last week. Now I need to figure out what to brew with it and how to fit that into my brew schedule, lol. I have a ton of NZ hops so I was thinking maybe I'd do a NZ Pilsner with lutra.

It's been a little while since I posted anything in this thread. My sourdough culture has been on the fritz and isn't forming good gluten. In order to have some bread, I just whipped up a couple loaves with standard baker's yeast and a little spent grain and whole wheat flours. Dough: * 920g...

5387 + 5 gallons rice lager = 5,392

I hadn't brewed an old school pale ale in a while so I decided to use up some hops I had in the freezer and get one in the kegerator. My tastes have really started to go back to some of the basics lately and this pale ale really hit the spot. The hops (cascade, galaxy, mosaic) might not be...

Barrel aged rye saison w/ Brett-C added to barrel. This is the 4th time I've made this beer and it's one of my favorites. The Brett gives it a really big punch of pineapple

4338 + 3 gallons pale ale = 4,341 Pale ale is a pretty basic recipe of 90% pale malt and the rest C-60 and Honey malt. I used cascade to bitter and added mosaic and galaxy to whirlpool. I'll also dry hop with mosaic. Fermenting with Voss Kveik

American Wheat w/ Galaxy hops. This is the first "bad" beer I've brewed in years. I'm not sure what the issue is but it just came across as grassy and bitter. If you're a fan of west coast IPAs then you'd probably love this beer, but I was looking for an easy summer sipper. I'm having a...

3476.8 + 6 gallons saison = 3,482.8 The saison is about 20% rye and 80% pilsner malt with a small percentage of acidulated. I only give it a ~25 IBU charge of Galaxy at 60 minutes. I'm using Belle Saison this time around and then will secondary in a barrel that I already have infected with...
