    FOTHB VI: Fellowship of the Homebrew 6: Let Doug and Mark Get Their Own From Now On

    just kegged two brews for the trade, they are carbing so probably a 1 week wait or so... I have to admit I'm quite excited about one in particular :)

    FOTHB VI: Fellowship of the Homebrew 6: Let Doug and Mark Get Their Own From Now On

    one guy at a homebrew comp did a chai spiced pumpkin. technically most pumpkins consist of quite a few of the spices anyway as you all know so of course it worked. I actually did what I would call a coffee cake cream ale which also consisted similar spices ie nutmeg, cinnamon, vanilla...

    FOTHB VI: Fellowship of the Homebrew 6: Let Doug and Mark Get Their Own From Now On

    I've wanted to do a coconut and condition on those rum oak chips that you can buy which I believe are from rum barrels broken down.

    Omega OYL-605 Lacto Blend Experiences

    I would add that the starter never showed any real activity for me any of the times I've done kettle sours. I can't say if there was activity in the kettle due to it being all closed up but I will say that it will have some level of sour odor not severe but noticable. I think without even a...

    Omega OYL-605 Lacto Blend Experiences

    agree with rph guy. I've always dropped at least 1.0 to 2.0 in ph in 24 hrs. just two weeks ago preboil ph was 5.4 pitched lacto after 15 min boil, collected all wort purged fermenter of o2 the best I could and pitched starter. I believe my pitch has always been on the lower end if not under...

    Brett c in 2ndary but final gravity is 1.004 do I pitch

    First time trying to play with Brett. i did a 4 grain petite saison and fermented with omega saisonstein monster. I'm at 1.004 so probably should have mashed hotter but I was predicted to land around 1.006 which I thought would be good. I wanted to secondary with brett c but my concern is...

    FotHB III: Coatee-cha tu yub nub!

    Finings prior to transfer to barrel. Add potassium sorbate to keg and after about a day or two add maple to the keg to taste. Goal was to get as much yeast out of suspension and then try to keep them at bay so they are t chewing through the Vermont maple. Also used the dark stuff for more...

    FotHB III: Coatee-cha tu yub nub!

    Good deal... I was hoping to hear big things from this stout. I had sent that maple bourbon barrel stout your way a while back and tried to throw my lessons learned if you will... we have to look out for each other ;) Next time..... I'm in on this if I don't have some major life event like...

    FotHB III: Coatee-cha tu yub nub!

    Darn it was hoping I could get in on this but still have too many beers left too brew. Hey pianoman 7 days wasn't enough on that fresh barrel? Sorry I led you a stray. I figured I'd better warn you when I saw you got that barrel but sounds like I might have made you second guess yourself...

    NYC trip need help

    Thanks for the input guys. We made the journey this am. I decided since other half was doing a can release (pleasant surprise because I actually didn't know ) I would avoid what appeared to be a crammed tap house at a 11 am. With cans in hand we went to threes. They were really nice and...

    NYC trip need help

    So I habe a 7 year old and a 2 year old and want to swing through NYC to get some beer. Breweries on my radar but would prefer kid friendly establishments- threes, other half, interboro, finback, sand city, district 96, and transmitter. I can't hit them all up so any help would be appreciated.
